Portraits

Close and quiet

Actors, athletes, designers, musicians, executives and artists, in the studio and on the street.

Giancarlo Esposito editorial portrait wearing hat and glasses

A portrait photography archive from The Content Campus: actors, athletes, designers, musicians, BMX riders, executives and artists, photographed in the studio and on the street.

Much of it is black and white, close and quiet, with room for the playful moments in between. Each sitting is shaped around the person in front of the lens.

“Each sitting is shaped around the person in front of the lens.”
