Various Editorials: Los Angeles

Jul 2025

Los Angeles is a documentary editorial series by photographer Marco Lessi that surveys the quiet, lived-in landscapes of Southern California. The project observes domestic interiors, residential architecture, and urban street life through a lens that prioritizes a candid, observational approach. Across a collection of stills, the work leans into an analogue film aesthetic, utilizing natural light to capture everyday moments in home workspaces, sunlit public squares, and coastal environments. The series maintains a cohesive, warm visual identity, characterized by grainy textures and golden hour lighting. By documenting small details—from a glass of water on a kitchen counter to the casual placement of shoes on a park lawn—the work highlights the specific, quiet rhythms of the city without artistic embellishment.
