Revealing a raw and vulnerable side to his cover subjects, Mesdon’s intimate photographs have regularly graced the covers of editorial publications including At Large magazine, where he serves as Creative and Editorial Director, as well as Man of the World, Icon magazine, Mr Porter, and L’Officiel Hommes USA.
A frequent contributor to At Large, Man of the World, Esquire, GQ Italia, Details, L’Uomo Vogue, and ICON, Mesdon is in high demand for his intimate and engaged portraits of notable figures. Granting his subjects the freedom to be captured with graceful introspection while elevating their personae, Mesdon’s instinctive approach to celebrity portraiture results in meticulously captured images rooted in old world Hollywood glamour. Mesdon’s lens has lately captured personalities including Tom Brady, Chris Pine, Nick Jonas, Ethan Hawke, Big Sean, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jamie Bell, Leon Bridges, Russell Westbrook, and Scott Eastwood.
Having established himself as a fixture in editorial publications, Mesdon has gone on to photograph extraordinary advertising campaigns for Polo Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Emporio Armani, Calvin Klein, DKNY, Club Monaco, Banana Republic, Levi’s, Todd Snyder, and Jeffrey Rüdes, among others. These inspiring images explore, interpret and embed a brand’s DNA to maximize each campaign’s impact with consumers across print, digital, and social media platforms.
The unmistakable visual voice that is evident in Mesdon’s photography makes him highly sought-after for motion projects, including captivating, ethereal films for brands such as Banana Republic and Jeffrey Rüdes. His poetic video for Dior Homme, set against a backdrop of Los Angeles’s famed Venice Skate Park, featured rising skateboarders-slash-models Ben Nordberg, Haden McKenna, and Zack Riddle and alternately combined moving and static imagery with sharp black and white scenography and fluid, rhythmic portraiture.
