Derrick Santini: Rita Ora • Sony BMG • Project info +
Photographed by Derrick Santini, these portraits of Rita Ora balance playfulness with intimacy, revealing the contrasting qualities that have made her one of Britain's most recognisable contemporary performers.
Moving between vibrant colour and stripped-back monochrome, the images capture both confidence and vulnerability. Santini's approach allows space for personality to emerge naturally, resulting in portraits that feel spontaneous, authentic and quietly revealing.
Whether framed through humour, style or stillness, the photographs focus on character above image-making, creating a portrait of an artist whose appeal lies as much in her individuality as her public persona.
