It has become quite a tradition for Vanity Fair magazine to publish celebrity portraits taken by photographer Mark Seliger right after the Oscars ceremony. After taking a year off, Seliger’s iconic portrait studio is back, where “the film industry’s biggest stars gather to pause, reflect, and pose,” wrote Vanity Fair.

The Oscars, as per usual, have been the talk of the town these days so it’s interesting to see the emotions on celebrities’ faces after the industry’s biggest night of the year. Scroll down to see beautiful portraits of Will Smith, Billie Eilish, and many more.

Mark Seliger, born in Amarillo, Texas, used to be Chief Photographer at Rolling Stone, where he shot nearly 200 covers over 10 years. Since then, he has been shooting frequently for Vanity Fair, Italian Vogue, Adidas, Ralph Lauren, and many other magazines and brands.

The talented photographer has received numerous awards for his work, which has been exhibited in museums and galleries around the world.

It’s not a secret that this year’s Oscars ceremony did not leave all the drama for its nominated films. After the event, the internet was having heated discussions about the physical altercation between Will Smith and Chris Rock that took place after the comedian made a joke about Will's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.

This is my favorite. He has the kindest face, the face of a man who plays the piano for his kitties.

That coat is so interesting. It was nice to see a lot of the men not just wearing a black tux.
