Emotive Ebony Editorials

Christina by Niklas Hoejlund is Full of Raw Feelings

The photo shoot starring model Christina by Niklas Hoejlund is full of emotion. A simple photo shoot, it relies on these raw feelings heavily to reel people in. Otherwise, it is comprised of a white backdrop and basic black outfits. The model uses everything from her body and hair to her eyes and mouth to convey various emotions in front of the camera.

Christina was expertly directed by Niklas Hoejlund in these emotive stills. The edgy ebony ensembles, which were styled by Patricia Maja Andersen, add to the overall dark and moody vibe. Shot entirely in black and white, the photo shoot is given even more depth. Makeup artist Cheryl Corea completed the somber looks with a flawless face.
