The People Who Made Issue#62 Happen

Get acquainted with Leila Bani and Kris Krug…

STYLIST
[LEILA BANI]
Leila Bani is a busy bee stylist and frequent ION cover shoot contributor. For this issue she had the pleasure of styling the babes of Fan Death, with whom she’s worked many times. Her first ever shoot with the band featured Dandi and Marta draped in a half dozen naked men—she knew then that it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship. In addition, Leila recently collaborated with our cover stars on their upcoming video entitled “The Son Will Rise,” in which Marta drinks lots of whiskey and rats take off with the band’s Mexican food. They rule. Surely a sign of more great work to come.

PHOTOGRAPHER
[KRIS KRUG]
Kris Krüg shot all the band articles in this issue. Kris is an international photographer who is a fervent evangelist for open culture and creative commons licensing. Constantly challenging himself by shooting diverse subjects from emerging rock bands to dot com execs, Kris uses his engaging personality to break down the barriers between lens and subject. Because of his unorthodox approach to his art, Kris has had his photos featured in Wired, National Geographic and the LA Times. Time after time his lens perfectly mimics his eye’s approach to catching the serendipitous moments in life.
