Photographer Takes Portraits Of Freckled People To Celebrate Their Unique Beauty
Brock Elbank is a London-based photographer who is best known for his ability to emphasize so-called human "imperfections" and turn them into striking portraits. He is currently working on a series of people diagnosed with vitiligo, and he continues with "Freckles" – a series celebrating the unique beauty of freckled individuals.
"I’ve always loved freckles," Elbank told Bored Panda before. "What I find interesting about individual characters that I have been fortunate enough to photograph is that many have struggled with their freckles since their infancy and either hated them, or grown to live with them or even like them in adulthood."
Elbank is often surprised when listening to stories of the complicated childhoods of his models, which frequently involved bullying and rejection, as he finds each individual to be uniquely charming and beautiful. His goal for this series is to photograph 180 people of different ethnicities, ages, and genders, all of whom are about to fly to London from different continents to have their portraits taken.
From May to October, the exhibition of portraits will take place in Regionmuseet Kristianstad (Sweden), and an art book is planned to be released in September, 2018.

WOW. The rudeness of this Theresa person makes us all cringe.
This woman is drop dead gorgeous! I think the freckles make her more beautiful.

Love that smile. That is a genuine smile and those are my favorite!
this is beautiful. my oldest daughter has a splash of freckles across her cheeks and nose. she would get teased until I told her they are angel kisses, and if you connect the dots - they make a huge smile.
Hey Theresa, if you're reading this, just know that if you're going through something I am sorry, but don't take it out on other beautiful people. If something is wrong, please go get help.
Theresa, we all know you're a troll. This isn't a great website for trolling though. The people here can almost immediately tell who is a troll. You'll get downvoted quite a bit here and most people will downvote just because they see your name. Go somewhere else, you won't get the reaction you want from us.
Getting downvoted and having people reply to them is exactly what a troll like "Theresa" wants. Your "warning" is just encouragement for the.
