Dark Room — Backstage Access for Photographers & Videographers

​Dark Room — Backstage Access for Photographers & Videographers

​Dark Room is a Broadway-format runway show created by Marcel Castellano. A fashion experience that blends live performance, original music, and visual storytelling. Presented during New York Fashion Week SS26, this is a theatrical concept unlike a traditional runway presentation.

​We're inviting photographers and videographers to join us as collaborators for this project.

​What this is:
This is a collaboration (TFP/unpaid) — not a paid booking. In exchange, you'll get:

• ​Full backstage access, before and during the show.

• ​Dedicated, unrushed time to shoot — this isn't a rapid-fire press pit, you'll have the space to actually work and capture quality content

• ​The chance to document a full theatrical production: wardrobe, choreography, live music, and the raw energy behind a Broadway-format fashion show

• ​Portfolio-level content from a high-visibility NYFW event

• ​Full credit across Dark Room and MCS press and social materials

​What we ask in return:
That you share your final content with us as soon as possible after the show. Press and media will need the images quickly. You'll be the one choosing your final selection to deliver.

​Who we're looking for:
All types of photographers and videographers: backstage/documentary, runway, portrait, and editorial shooters welcome.
