Tyler Mitchell Captures Louis Vuitton Spring 2023 Mens Campaign, Shot in Almeria, Spain

Tyler Mitchell Captures Louis Vuitton Spring 2023 Mens Campaign, Shot in Almeria, Spain

Photographer Tyler Mitchell [IG] was over the moon, shooting “a gang of boys in the Spanish desert” near Almería, Spain. The minute I saw Mitchell’s name I understood how impacted he was by the shoot. To his credit, Tyler said as much: “I'm extremely thankful for the opportunity. Photography has brought me many places but this is my first main campaign for a heritage house of such stature. Those who know me know how much this means.”

In an excellent interview Mitchell has with FRIEZE, the photographer explains how his new work is being influenced by his growing understanding of historical paintings.

AOC understands the constant mention of boyhood games and imaginations in the evolving Louis Vuitton Menswear discussion, but to me it’s just as important that cool men are relating to amusing and creative elements in their clothes. Creativity is known to be a uniting force among diverse peoples.

Virgil Abloh understood that reality. Clearly Louis Vuitton understands it in their deeply personal embrace of Virgil’s talents — then and now. And Tyler Mitchell is a similarly soft-spoken, creative personality that fits beautifully into the Louis Vuitton hive.

Stephanie Seymour's Steely Grace for WSJ Magazine, Lensed by Daniel Jackson

Model icon Stephanie Seymour covers WSJ Magazine’s Spring Women’s Fashion issue, making her first supermodel appearance since the January 2021 death of her son Harry Brant due to an accidental overdose of prescription.

There is a deep sadness that pervades Seymour’s interview with Derek Blasberg — as can be expected when a mother has lost her son to a drug overdose. Daniel Jackson [IG] captures Stephnie’s poignant grief, photographing the woman who “has built her career by happily submitting to the gods of the photo shoot”, in the words of Blasberg.

Those gods include Herb Ritts, Peter Lindbergh, and Richard Avedon. Seymour had a long and lucrative career with Victoria’s Secret.

Neither Stephanie Seymour’s life nor Peter Brant’s was ever dull. In 2018, the New York Times shared ‘The Great Interview Magazine Caper’, writing “Andy Warhol’s magazine is dead. No wait, it’s back! Inside Peter Brant’s latest magic trick.”
