Album Cover Photoshoot for Ridgewood Musician - Queens

Anthony Stephenson is an independent musician and producer who is currently working on an upcoming EP, the theme of which revolves around how he spent his time during the covid-19 lockdowns. Citing depression and unhealthy coping mechanisms as the album’s central focus, we tried to capture a certain sense of claustrophobic malaise with a dash of troubled resignation for this album-cover shoot which took place in his bedroom where the album was recorded.

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):
