There’s a special kind of magic that happens when a photographer and muse truly understand each other—and Colorfully Dark, the latest submission by photographer Jono Madison starring Alex Michael Torres, is living proof.
“This was something Alex and I both wanted to challenge ourselves with,” Jono shares. “We’ve worked together before, but this time we stepped into the studio with the intention to push the boundaries of what we’ve created in the past.”
The result is a rich, cinematic series packed with vibrant contrasts and emotional depth. “Alex wanted to play a role,” Jono continues. “He asked me to direct him, to build a character and pull emotions through each shot. He really delivered—he brought the intensity, the vulnerability, and made the whole shoot come alive.”
With moody lighting, vivid colors, and a dose of theatricality, Colorfully Dark is as much a performance as it is a visual experience. It’s raw, striking, and stylishly brave.
