Imaginative photographer and friend of the magazine, Mike Kobal has been contributing to ZOOT since the very beginning.

Mike’s shoot for “Favourite worst nightmare” was a gorgeously haunting addition to Vol 2 #2 of the magazine, and he did a stunning fashion feature about the Jeremy Scott for adidas originals collection, photographed in the streets of New York and published in one of our last print issues in 2010.

A native Austrian-cum-American citizen, Mike lives in lower Manhattan, where he is inspired by his surroundings everyday.

So, when German model Carolin Benda was planning a stay in New York in May, we introduced her to Mike. ZOOT met Carolin—or Caro for short—last year in Porto during a beauty shoot with Antonia Rosa.

Here is the result of their encounter, photographed on the fire escape and roof terrace at Mike’s East Village studio: a collection of classically striking images, with a delicate touch of whimsy.

Thanks to Mike and Caro for sharing the photos with ZOOT and our readers.
