Slava Mogutin: It’s Hot Out There
Photography Slava Mogutin
Words Tom Czibolya
For Container Love’s first printed magazine, New York-based photographer Slava Mogutin shot an amazing series of portraits in his hometown of NYC and during his visits to Los Angeles or Mexico City. A member of the Container Love family, Slava’s pictures are not just snippets from a joyful summer of love on the North American continent, but a celebration of Pride. Through his beautiful models, Slava’s images remind us that queerness is colorful, bold, and full of hope, but above all, queerness is a way of life that needs to be nourished and appreciated every given day.
