Description
The fashion portrait from 2006 is characteristic of Bengtsson’s visual language, where fashion and portraiture merge into a painterly and finely tuned expression. The photograph is marked by a quiet presence and a sense of melancholy, lending the image both depth and emotional resonance. Carl Bengtsson describes himself as a portrait fashion photographer, emphasizing the central role of the model in his images. In his work, each fashion photograph is conceived as a staged narrative, with the model as the main protagonist. Authenticity and credibility are fundamental to his approach.
