About Face

by John Russo, Ayn Carrillo Gailey (Editor)

An art photography book photographed by leading celebrity photographer John Russo that includes inspiring quotations and black and white over-sized portraits of Hollywood s most recognizable young male stars. Russo amazingly captures the raw beauty, spirit, and emotional distinctions of each subject while shooting each of them in the same pose, and utilizing only natural light. About Face was shot using soon-to-be-extinct Type 55 Polaroid film, making this photography book historically significant to collectors.

Okay, not fair. I was the editor of this book. But, it really did turn out well and there are some fab photos of hot young actors.
