'Point the camera at him and something incredible happens!'
Last month I featured Mark Leighton's images of Nico and Kim from his book A Quiet Place. In that piece, (HERE:) I focused on Mark;s images of Nico and Kim together. Given how many incredible images Mark shared, I thought both Nico and Kim deserved a piece with a focus on Mark' individual images of each model.
FH readers were first introduced to Nico during Mark's working vacation in the Philippines back in 2015. (Bakasyon Grande) Whenever I feature Mark's work I am always visually drawn to both the model and location he is capturing. Mark also beautifully captures the feel and vibe. There is an energy in Mark's work when shooting near his home in Portugal very different than the energy felt in theses shots of Nico shot in Bali.
The quiet heat is not only seen in Nico's surroundings, it is strongly felt building when looking into Nico's eyes. If you want to see more of Mark's work with Nico, including full frontal nudes shot only for the book, check it out on Blurb HERE: Also check out Mark's solo work with Kim on page 2 HERE:
'In real life Nico is modest, unassuming, quiet and shy, but.. give him a theme, a prop, a bit of a wardrobe - and a tiny bit of direction - and he just takes it away and is enormously creative in what he does.'
Nico and Kim
