The Adamo de Pax 'Fever Pitch' shoot engages the viewer in a [sultry tragedy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat), with deep colors and dark lighting. The editorial is heavily based in narrative, oozing a theme of [loss of innocence](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren). The model is angelic, with a plump pout and innocent blond curls. Her gaze is mournful and far-off. The model's sweet appearance is juxtaposed with ultra-sexy styling, evoking an essence of tragedy and disadvantage.

The technical aspects of the photographs are breathtaking. The [deep maroon used in the background](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) highlights the pale model and the stark emotion of the composition.

Adamo de Pax is a Canadian photographer. The new talent is based in Toronto, Canada, where he applies his passion for creative conceptual work to landscape, fashion, portraiture and commercial photography.
