Various Editorials

Sep 2026

Actor Sylvia Hoeks features in this portrait editorial series captured by photographer and director Kourosh Sotoodeh. The work leans into a moody, low-key aesthetic, utilizing dramatic chiaroscuro lighting to accentuate silhouette and texture across a range of studio compositions. Sotoodeh, who also served as creative director and producer, frames the subject against minimalist dark grey backdrops. The editorial incorporates a blend of monochrome and desaturated color palettes, supported by hair styling from Jerome Cultrera and makeup artistry by Hiro Yonemoto. The project is characterised by a raw, clean visual approach that highlights both the styling and the subject's dynamic poses.
