The two photographers were born and raised in Milan. After having completed an ordinary school education, they decided to make their passion their profession. After having received jobs from designers and magazines, such as Elle, Vanity Fair, Blast, UnFLOP paper, Grazia, A, Dsection, GQ and Vogue, they moved to London in order to become more influencing.
Now, we got a little sneak peek into their work for magazines, also including the tattooed model Rick Genest for an edition of the GQ. On the portraits you can discover some celebrities, such as the band Thirty Seconds to Mars. The team also created commercials for names like Les Hommes, Jacob Cohen, Stephan Janson and many more.
All pictures have one thing in common. Their focus is set on the models’ countenance. The background and postures seem to be reduced, simple and emphasize the face this way. It’s often the eyes that add power to the pictures and that attract the viewer’s attention.
The twins Aline und Jaqueline Tappia Reynaud don’t think that photography is a job, but for them it is passion. Their method of working requires a lot of emotions from the models, because they are put into the limelight. In the end, their expressions decide about the mood of the pictures. The twins often achieve to capture the viewer’s entire attention with that.
