photographer / director / publisher
On April 27th, I photographed actress Joanna Kulig, star of the new movie “Elle’s”, who was in town for the gala premiere of the film at The Tribeca Film Festival. The shoot, which is for The Untitled Magazine’s fall / winter issue, was styled by Fashion Director Jackie Astier with a modern film noir, Belle du Jour inspiration. Joanna was amazing to work with and extremely talented! Definitely an up-and-coming star to look out for. She was very convincing in her role playing a student prostitute in the controversial new movie. Set in France, the polish actress had to learn to speak french for her role. She play a very provocative and charming student, who moonlights from her studies by hooking with middle-aged bourgeois clients. Stay tuned for the editorial spread, featuring the actress in looks by The Blonds, Agent Provocateur, Temperley, and Kiki de Montparnasse as well as a behind the scenes video of the shoot. Read more about the film in my interview with Joanna and the director, Malgoska Szumowska, online now on The Untitled Magazine’s website.
