With works featured in Dazed & Confused and many other fashion magazines, photographer Karim Sadli is definitely one to watch out for. His use of composition and styling makes him stand out from many other photographers.
The series shown here was modeled by Rutger Derksen and styled by Robbie Spencer, all to emphasize Derksen's vibrant hair. The contrasting colors and badass fashions are trademarks of Karim Sadli and his wicked photography works.
Implications - Personally, I found this editorial appealing for the very obvious redhead model gimmick. Karim Sadli does a great job of not allowing the gimmick to be the only interesting part of the shoot. HIs snaps capture attitude, style, and candor in abundance.
This issue of Dazed & Confused is on newsstands now.
