Hello, with a new project! Here’s a series I enjoyed photographing, picturing some of the “Young Gentlemen” from Romania, selected by A List Magazine (@alistmagazine). All of them are great performers in their fields—even though they are very young, all of them are under 30. Actually, this is the topic of the magazine article and project: celebrating young performers.
In this context, I photographed the TV host Aris Eram (@arismelkior), the artist Antoniu Tămaș (@tamasantoniu), the actor Vlad Ionuț Popescu (@vladionut.popescu), the chef Szilárd Lőrincz (@szililorincz), the pilot Robert Oană (@10robert24), and the composer and conductor Eduard Dabrowski (@eduard.dabrowski).
Here are some fresh pictures from our first SecretNipple party. It was a great one, not because of us, but because so many friends decided to visit us and spend some time together. I’m also glad to see SecretNipple growing, becoming a reason for wonderful people to get together and have a good time.
SecretNipple is a unique project I’m involved in, for which I’ve already produced many portraits of interesting people. The project started with a bit of nostalgia when a group of creators (Iulia Sas, Mara Coman, Irina Hartia, Alexandra Craescu, Adonis Enache, Adrian Mihaiu, Liviu Badilita & me), some of them with extensive experience in glamour and editorial journalism, decided to compensate for the disappearance of the glossy magazines market with a project that keeps alive the same creative energy and spirit. In other words, SecretNipple is about that intimate feeling one wants to hide but can’t; it is a story about intimacy, not necessarily physical, but especially emotional, delivered through portrait photography.
Although the project is just two years old, it has become visible enough in the market to grab the attention of relevant people and institutions. In this direction, Conceptual Lab and Theo Nissim offer the SecretNipple project to become better known and better understood by you, by organising a party. Of course, the event included a photographic exhibition with the pictures produced for the project, screened in an installation made of 18 displays.
