Lasers and guiding lights add a sharp cutting-edge element to noir studio photography series
Experimental portrait photography by Altered State Entertainment Industry Photographer Rey Contreras
Description
The worlds of Ridley Scott’s dystopian visuals and the vibrant, kinetic energy of Tokyo’s nighttime streets have collided.
The series by Dallas photographer Rey Contreras recalibrates portrait and editorial photography through an experimental lens, featuring portraits bathed in dramatic cyberpunk-inspired lighting—an intense fusion of color and shadow, where the allure of cyberpunk crosses over into the sleek polish of high-fashion editorials. Think Ghost in the Shell meets the glossy pages of Vogue, all under a shower of neon.
Laser grids imprint patterns on the subjects, creating a sense of movement and tension, while backdrops pulse with vibrant colors, each pulsating with its own unique energy. The use of Godox lighting solutions paints each subject in sharp contrasts and surreal hues, turning conventional portrait headshots into gateways of an electrifying future.
