About

This portrait series featuring actor Louis Hofmann explores a range of moods and textures through dynamic, editorial photography. Captured by Anka Garbowska, the work leans into a blend of monochrome high-contrast urban settings and soft, tactile studio lighting to define the subject’s presence. Nicholas MacKinnon provides the fashion styling, balancing structured tailoring and oversized knitwear with unexpected details like Victorian-inspired lace and patterned leather accessories. Technically grounded in natural light and analogue-inspired film aesthetics, the imagery shifts between gritty sidewalk portraits and intimate, moody compositions. The series frames the subject against architectural details, using both hard, directional lighting and diffused soft light to emphasize the materiality of leather, mohair, and denim. Additional creative input includes movement direction from Brian Poniatowski.
