Oliver Stalmans is a 21-year-old [fashion photographer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterstudio) from Denmark with an eye for aesthetics that has led him to a set of stunning photos that are both [edgy and understated](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time).

From the subjects he chooses to the [lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emil-robbrecht), sets and attitudes captured, it is no surprise that he will have a good future in fashion photography. I find the photography by Oliver Stalmans really cool and hope to see more of his wonderful works in the near future.

**Implications** - This amazing photographer is definitely one to watch out for as he has a very bright future ahead of him. This incredible artist is between France and Denmark but maybe soon that will change.
