Emile Tourtin

Emile Tourtin spent his days inside London’s old theaters, camera in hand, waiting for the actors to pause between scenes. He wasn’t after perfect portraits—he liked the half-baked moments, the smudged rouge and tangled costumes that showed the work behind the glamour. If you’ve ever stood in front of a stage door at dusk, you’ve felt the same thing he did: the quiet before the next burst of light and sound. See what he saw in Guy Little Theatrical Photograph, a gallery of faces that still look like they’re holding their breath.
