We are excited to present an exclusive interview and photoshoot with the stunning Mariya Kramarenko, captured by the talented photographer Jorge Arango Kure. The photo series was shot in London…

“The light on the afternoon we shot was pretty amazing,” remembers photographer Ben Everden of the day he spent shooting with model Ashley Thompson, who was born and raised in Miami and has an identical twin. Ben adds the amusing detail that Ashley was even early to their shoot, which never happens in Miami.

“I shot these at a friend’s home and felt inspired by an eclectic assortment of elements, some of which came to mind from the start, and others which developed along the way.” This is often the case when creating something; you set off with an idea or a starting point, and as you create, the wonderful process unfolds where something new, which you hadn’t thought of before or was hidden, is added. So, creating always involves a lot of discovery.

We love the interplay of different shapes and materials that cling to the body of model Anna Galas, perfectly staged by photographer Ala Wisniewska. “The shoot took place on April 9, 2024 in Warsaw, Poland. Despite the still cold season, I wanted to take my audience to the mood of summer for which everyone longs, the nature that everyone loves and also show women’s beauty, gentleness and lightness and at the same time strength and courage.”

“I need to get my heart rate up just like it does in real life, when you find yourself in those situations. Then it’s just allowing the emotion to come to you by being vulnerable, which takes practice.” These words show the dedication and emotional depth that define Raquel Esteban as an actress. It’s a skill, you know, this vulnerability? But it’s the key that unlocks everything.

This series immerses you in all the beauty that makes this world worth living in—nature, animals, flowers, beauty, the sun, and the ocean’s depths. The Bali-based photographer Augustus Solaris, along with the model Camila, has captured such incredibly beautiful photos that they leave you breathless.

I once read somewhere that you only have one chance in life—to love life and people. There is no other path to happiness. Love, the mightiest of all passions, can sear your very soul, imbuing it with a fire no other sentiment can match—if you but open your heart to its power.

“Everything about this shoot was miraculous,” says photographer Michael Washienko, reflecting on his latest exclusive session with the gorgeous Elana Kanelo from Lucid Models. “After months of harsh cold weather, we were blessed with a single sunny day. Elana had just finished her finals, packed up everything, and rushed home so we could catch the sunset in this beautiful weather.” We wanted to delve deeper into the life of this inspiring model and hear more about her experiences.

As the morning sun gently seeps through the landscape, a hopeful promise blankets the yet unstarted day. It’s alive with strength, overflowing with desires and longings. In our latest photographic series, Aline D’Ávila shared a marvelous day with photographer João Hazin, capturing these effortless moments.

“For the street, the imagery needs to be bold enough to carry its own weight… A gallery environment… allows breathing space, so the imagery has the room to be more delicate; it has nothing to fight against or withstand.” This insight from BerriBlue, a Polish/Irish painter and street artist based in Porto, summarizes the duality of her artistic expression, which shifts seamlessly between the robust public spaces and the intimate ambiance of gallery settings.

Flowers are perhaps nature’s most exquisite creations. It’s the fleeting dance of their blooms, the whisper of impermanence, that makes them so precious. Caring for flowers means surrendering to slowness, to tranquility and gentleness.

“Our goal was to craft a series around a wealthy housewife with time on her hands, set against the backdrop of a stunning mid-century home in Los Angeles during the golden hour. The shoot aimed to blend high fashion elements with this luxurious setting, and it proved to be a thoroughly enjoyable experience.”

Alexander and Anna Lena, a couple hailing from the picturesque Carinthian region, are bound by a spirit of insatiable curiosity. Their hearts beat to the rhythm of exploration, forever yearning to peel back the layers of the world and to unearth its hidden gems. Through a collection of personal photographs, we are offered a window into their world: the gasp at nature’s raw power, the thrill of the unknown, and the quiet joy of shared moments that bind them closer.

“These are my last days in Bogotá, just a few days away from returning to NYC for vacation. And coincidentally, María José has just arrived in Bogotá,” introduces photographer Alexander Tarazona, with the beautiful María José, a model and designer from Medellín starring in his latest analogue photo work.
