“Young Love” by Photographer Raphael Gaultier

A candid look at romantic relationships experienced in young adulthood by photographer Raphael Gaultier (previously featured here). Originally from Seattle and currently based in Brooklyn, Gaultier works across a variety of genres to capture the intimacies of daily life. In “Young Love” he focuses on the intense emotions and vulnerabilities of a stage of life that is marked by a multitude of personal changes:

“I want to speak to the experiences and struggles of young adults as they navigate the intricacies of their relationships. By focusing on the everyday moments of couples and individuals in different stages of their respective relationships, I aim to portray the universal themes of love and connection, and challenge the popular representation of young love in modern media.”
