Albinos in the lens of Gustavo Lacerde

Brazilian Gustavo Lacerda has been photographing people for many years who are born without the pigment melanin, which is responsible for the color of tissues.

Brazilian photographer Gustavo Lacerda (Gustavo Lacerda) has always been interested in finding out why albinos — these beautiful unusual people-are so shunned by society and in a sense isolated from it. He worked on his project about albinism for several years, finding characters with the help of friends, through social networks and on the street.

According to the photographer, he wanted to give these people the opportunity to feel their importance, so he shot their portraits in the studio — where you could choose clothes, hair, makeup and background.
