Striking Black and White Portraits of Celebrities at the Golden Globes 2017

Golden Globes 2017

It was another star-studded evening at the Golden Globes this year. The 74th annual broadcast featured a bevy of performers that spanned film, television, and music, bringing the best of the best together for a night of glamour and celebration. Fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott were in attendance, rubbing shoulders with the nominated actors, musicians, directors, show runners, and esteemed presenters.

With their cameras in tow, the collaborative photographers captured the magnetic charm of celebrities in striking black and white portraits. Their truly spectacular portfolio of the night includes the likes of winners Emma Stone, Ryan Gosling, Viola Davis, and the one and only Meryl Streep, who left a resounding mark on the night as she accepted her Cecil B. DeMille Award.
