D. LaChapelle






       

I have come across this work of David LaChaplelle only yesterday, and I was immediately swept away. This photo shoot was made in 1995 and features, barely twenty year old, back then Leonardo DiCaprio. The intensity of color, and odd setting create the surreal and unsteady feeling: like the scene pulled out from some wired movie, which plot is just about to unfold. In a way this scenery reminds me a bit of 'Romeo and Juliet' (1996), and captures the young, sensual and very over the top vibe of the 90s.
