Power, Poise & Raw Presence: A Portrait of Untamed Energy

Dark, sculptural, and emotionally charged, this photo series by Natalia Mailis is a visual meditation on masculine strength and vulnerability. Shot in rich shadow and moody light, model Troy Howard becomes both subject and force — dressed in draped fabric and adorned in pearls, his expression commands attention while defying easy definition.

More than portraiture, the series is a study in energy — not polished or restrained, but unfiltered and sovereign. With styling that blurs the line between regal and raw, and a body language that shifts between stillness and motion, each frame pulses with tension and presence.

The series explores the interplay of fashion, gender, identity, and movement. The result is intimate, bold, and defiantly human.
