Editorial lighting and portrait work focused on architecture, design culture, and urban narrative within New York environments



Photographer: Paul Bellaart
Subject: Marcel Wanders

Lighting Execution: Sebastian Beckmann / Assisting Productions


This editorial series explores the intersection of design, architecture, and personal narrative through a sequence of portraits and environmental compositions set in New York City.

Photographed by Paul Bellaart, the series combines intimate close-ups with wider urban frames, capturing moments of reflection, movement, and spatial interaction. The visual language shifts between monochrome and color, balancing documentary sensibility with editorial structure.

Sebastian Beckmann contributed to the lighting through Assisting Productions, supporting a natural yet controlled approach that emphasizes texture, facial structure, and ambient integration within the cityscape.

The result aligns with international editorial standards in design, architecture, and cultural publications.
