Oinoxoos After Quarantine Cover

The greek magazine "Oinochoos" about the Greek wine and wine culture, first cover after quarantine days. The idea was a cover of showing our common emotions due of the quarantine days and the step by step come back of us in normality. Over all comes the role of wine in the greek culture and economy.

In this magazine cover I used portrait photography and a dystopic scenery as backround to capture the different forms and emotions of human beings on the five magazine editors to describe balance - independence - the next unknown step - stability - social distancing. A look to the future, ours and the Greek wine from the ancient times to the present day, is a cornerstone of our culture, tradition and prosperity.

Dear editors of "Oinochoos" magazine thank you from the bottom of my heart for your cooperation and trust for this cover.

Headshot Portrait Photographer Athens FAQ

A headshot is a contemporary portrait focused on a single person. Within a simple frame, it captures expression, presence, and the subtle details that make someone recognizable. It is often created for professional use, becoming the visual introduction to a person’s work and identity appearing on social media profiles, corporate websites, “About Us” pages, and in promotional material for corporate clients, artists, actors and authors.
