The Union Los Angeles returns with another cultural editorial and this time you delve into Cuban American culture.
The stunning shoot captures a male model as he treks through Cuban restaurant El Colmao. This editorial promotes clothing, local communities and a rich culture. The editorial was lensed by photographer Nick Walker. Walker is able to capture the essence of the restaurant and the Hispanic theme authentically without making it seem forced. The model looks natural and as if he belongs there. Great shots include the man posing at the cooking station dressed in a simple white tank and cropped chinos. The look is convincing and the setting is accurate.
