THROUGH THE LENS: 335mm (NSFW)

Another prominent photographer who uses Instagram as one of his many vehicles in documentation, 335mm is a self-taught shutterbug who spends his time cavorting between hometown Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, and Miami capturing alluring and, at times, seductive photography. Citing his influences as Terry Richardson, Julius Shulam and Yonehara Yasumasa, 335mm blends a style that dips into the spheres of fashion, music and urban landscape. Relying upon distinctive colors, spaces and mise-en-scéne, his aesthetic portrays an amalgamation that correlates strongly with that of his mentors. Having worked with Black Scale, Kreemo, Fresh-I-AM, and shot with music power house Columbia Records and Taylor Gang Ent., 335mm already houses an impressive resume in a short three years in the field – and with the continued onslaught of stimulating dispatch, it doesn’t look like he’s about to stop. Be on the lookout for 335mm’s collaborative Black Scale #BLVCKPUSSY T-shirt dropping Friday, February 9 through Black Scale’s respective flagship stores.
