Known for approaching fashion photography with a sophisticated lens, the work of London-based Umit Savaci is multifaceted and difficult to define; dancing between black and white portraits, hazy still lifes, and abstract moments captured as if from a half-forgotten dream.
Savaci’s portfolio includes editorials for clients such as Vogue Portugal and The Sunday Times Magazine, as well as shoots for independent print publications including Dapper Dan, Toast Magazine, Union Magazine, and Favorite Magazine. Savaci gives contemplative attention to the elements of color and line; amplifying textural contrast through light, shadow, and tone. In the selected images that follow, a duality is present: delicate fruits in pale yellows sit beside confidently-posing models in monochrome frames, and organic forms of nature are juxtaposed against refined beauty.
