Sean Donnola is a New York-based photographer most well known for his insightful portraits of artists and musicians for T Magazine, the New York Times periodical devoted to fashion, beauty, travel, and the arts. Donnola is a student of classic photography and contemporary filmmaking and on this lush photograph effectively borrows the saturated palette and natural realism of one of his avowed heroes, William Eggleston, and the styling and alluring if troubling beauty of a David Lynch set.
