GOALS VS. RESOLUTIONS: what’s the difference?

New years resolutions are often things we wish were different but we’re not really ready to change. Whereas a meaningful goal is something we want to do for ourselves.

You are more and more following us on this page and we wanted to thank you for the support so far. The best is still yet to come and we will work harder towards our goals.

FOCUS ON: Dominique Fiteu

Also known as , is a 21 year-old film photographer and videographer based in New York City. Growing-up, nothing could predict that Dominique was heading to a successful career in photography. In fact, he always planned on playing professional soccer but life led him down a different path when he broke his ankle the first day of practice. After that, he found an old film camera at home and decided to use his newly acquired free time to learn how to use it. Three months later, his devotion and hard work brought him to New York Fashion Week where he was shooting shows. Focused on building genuine connections and developing his skills, Dominique has built an impressive portfolio including work with Brent Faiyaz, GoldLink, Alton Mason and Aweng Chuol to only name a few.
There is something unique about his style, something raw and authentic which makes you feel the vibe of the precise moment in time when the image was captured.

Immerse yourself in his vibrant work with this selection of some of our favorite clichés from Dominique. 🖤

VIDEO OF THE WEEK:

joanna and Laylow delivered a mesmerising video for "Demons" taken from joanna's debut album, which will be released in 2021. Directed by Marius Gonzales, the video takes us into a cinematic universe, both dark and sensual, inspired by the movie The Fallen Angels by Wong Kar-Wai, and by the work of directors Gaspard Noé and Nicolas Winding Refn. The visual shows a unique alchemy between the two artists which makes it one of the most striking productions of this year-end.
