Hannes Caspar is a 32-year-old, Berlin-based photographer who has been shooting models displaying stirring [facial expressions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-powered-portrait-studio) since he was 27.

One look through Hannes Caspar's selected portfolio and it's easy to see that he is a shutterbug obsessed with capturing the changing expressions and complexities of the human face. His [portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-portraits) ring of melancholy, mystery, and sex appeal. Some highlights from his portfolio include the last picture, a shot of a monochrome shot of an extremely expressive screaming model. The picture artfully captures the passion and energy behind the photograph, and it does so without the benefit of a dramatic background or landscape.

Hannes Caspar has only been published in small European magazines, but he is currently in New York City working with an agent on the release of [his first book](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche).
