About Face, the first book printed by Pixie Press Worldwide, is a stunning limited-edition art photography book shot by leading celebrity photographer John Russo and contains black and white portraits of some of Hollywood’s most recognizable young male stars, including Jason Lewis (Sex and the City), Taylor Kitsch (Friday Night Lights), Ian Somerhalder (Lost,Vampire Diaries), and Ryan Kwanten (True Blood, Summerland)...
Russo amazingly captures the raw beauty, spirit, and emotional distinctions of each subject while shooting each of them in the same pose, and utilizing only natural light. About Face was shot using type 55 Polaroid film, now considered obsolete, making this photography book historically significant to collectors.
