On the gentle Portuguese coast, Max von Treu created the fashion project 'BLUE SAND'. Max photographed the print editorial and directed the film for LES HOMMES PUBLICS magazine. The models were from the Da Banda agency, based in Lisbon and Angola, with styling by Alex Huber and set design by Oskar Rink.
Max von Treu is a German fashion photographer who splits his time between Berlin, Munich, and Lisbon. He is known for his cinematic storytelling approach, which comes as no surprise given his background in cinematography, having studied in London. In addition to his photography work, he continues to work in film. Max has a remarkable ability to capture intimate moments that manifest in highly graphic, almost painterly compositions. His images are distinguished by an aesthetic that conveys both emotional depth and visual clarity. The influence of cinema is always present in his work, often adding a narrative dimension to his photos that extends beyond the immediate moment.
Since July, Max has been represented by Schierke Hottas.
