Theunis Stofberg’s fashion photography captures models in [nerdy fashion ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildest-ones-yet) and [geeky glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artsy-eyewear-collection) with an overall old-school feel.

Excellent photography is what Stofberg is all about and this concept surely shows through within this nerdy photoshoot. The setting and ambiance of the shoot complement the geeky outfits. The models in the shoot are captured either with tropical fruit cocktails on couches, reading books or posing in awkward positions.

This photo series will definitely appeal to the hipster crowd, giving plenty of inspiration for potential outfits this coming summer.
