Nicola Wincenc stars in Boys by Girls magazine's "Nicola" editorial that is captured by photographer Ira Chernova's lens. The long-haired model is dressed in pieces from Lifetime Collective, Highland and Cheap Monday
while roaming city streets and urban parks. He is captured in a nostalgic image series that is showcased through aged polaroid portraits.
Though contemporary, the framed photos appear vintage and aged, showcasing scratches and muted color hues that are definitive of the camera manufacturer's iconic visual aesthetic.
New York based photographer Ira's creations are a nod to retro visual imagery that is enhanced by its imperfections. His "Nicola" editorial for Boys and Girls magazine embraces this notion and rejects the high-resolution of today's traditional photography.
