Shot entirely in direct, high-contrast natural light, the series leans into the tactile quality of the wardrobe, featuring oversized ruffles, fringe, and structured draping.

The series utilizes a mix of warm tones and monochrome grading to highlight the intricate details of the garments, ranging from sheer white lace to structured wool coats with contrast stitching. By employing clean, minimal backgrounds, the project keeps the viewer's attention fixed on the subject and the interplay of fabric, using both analogue film techniques and soft natural light to define the mood.

Through a collection of tight beauty portraits and macro studies, the project features model Lulu Röhr, whose features serve as a canvas for avant-garde makeup artistry. The series employs an editorial aesthetic that balances clean, minimalist backgrounds with intense chromatic experiments, ranging from fluid watercolor-style pigments to tactile, dripping textures. Photographer Marta Skovro leads the visual execution, utilizing precise studio lighting to emphasize skin texture and graphic facial lines. Makeup artist Lindsay Kastuk drives the narrative through bold, textured cosmetic applications, including vivid eyeshadows and glossy, saturated lip finishes. By focusing on intimate, macro perspectives, the work leans into a clean, contemporary beauty narrative.
Project Tidal Magazine · Cold Hear Romanticism

Photographed by Aleksander Salski, the project leans into a moody and ethereal aesthetic, utilizing soft-focus techniques and natural light to capture the tactile qualities of high-fashion textiles. Throughout the series, the imagery employs desaturated tones and a grainy, analogue film finish to create a painterly atmosphere. The portraits and full-length shots against minimalist studio backgrounds highlight sculptural silhouettes, detailed garment textures, and an intimate, deliberate mood.
Project Tidal Magazine · 'LIVING CANVAS'
LIVING CANVAS by Tidal Magazine is a masterclass in modern beauty editorial, pushing the boundaries of traditional portraiture through a lens of raw, graphic artistry. Photographer Alena Sazonova directs this exploration of the face as a blank page, utilizing tight macro compositions and deliberate beauty light to document an avant-garde approach to cosmetics. The project, brought to life through the precise makeup artistry of Suna Myles, leans into experimental color theory, where vivid orange, primary blue, and saturated neon pigments collide against the natural texture of the skin. By stripping away conventional beauty standards, the series channels a minimalist high-fashion aesthetic that prioritizes form, geometry, and the tactile quality of matte paint over standard glam. Ryan Taniguchi brings a structural sensibility to the hair and styling, ensuring that every element—from individual lashes coated in bright orange mascara to hand-painted polka dots—functions as a deliberate stroke within a larger, cohesive vision. The imagery succeeds by highlighting the intersection of human anatomy and fine-art application, utilizing soft light and macro techniques to elevate commercial beauty into something decidedly conceptual. Every frame serves as a bold, painterly experiment that challenges the viewer to reconsider the relationship between cosmetic product and artistic expression within the current fashion landscape.
Project Tidal Magazine · Free Roam
Free Roam, the latest editorial spread for Tidal Magazine, masterfully captures the intersection of youth culture and gritty urban atmosphere. Through a series of candid portraits, the project leans into a documentary aesthetic that celebrates raw, unposed spontaneity. Photographer Debora Pota anchors the narrative, utilizing natural light to elevate the everyday reality of city life into a compelling visual discourse. The series travels from sun-drenched subway platforms to the geometric boundaries of chain-link fences, creating a cohesive visual identity that feels both nostalgic and distinctly modern. Model Lulu Röhr moves through these spaces with an effortless cadence, her ensembles blending relaxed tailoring with eclectic accessories, such as vintage cassette players and doodle-covered skateboards. Makeup artist Rie Omoto provides a subtle yet impactful touch, favoring bold, artistic applications of blush and pastel eyeshadow that emphasize the models' natural features rather than masking them. The interplay of texture—from pinstriped jerseys and floral lace overlays to heavy concrete and tiled walls—creates a rich, tactile experience for the viewer. By prioritizing an editorial lifestyle approach, Free Roam transforms fleeting moments into a sophisticated study of style. The work succeeds by honoring the imperfection of its environment, ultimately producing a series that reads as a love letter to the authentic, fluid nature of metropolitan existence.
Project Tidal Magazine · The Last Laugh
In The Last Laugh, Tidal Magazine leans into a sharp, theatrical aesthetic that breathes new life into the traditional fashion editorial portrait. Captured through the lens of photographer and art director Edyta Chachulska, this series presents a masterclass in controlled minimalism and high-fashion tension. Featuring model Julia Banas, the project subverts classic studio tropes by blending avant-garde silhouettes with playful, performative gestures. The imagery oscillates between stark monochromatic intensity and vivid accents, utilizing both crisp studio strobe lighting and soft natural light to emphasize the structural nuances of the wardrobe. From paper-constructed headwear to voluminous bubble skirts and rigid, geometric tailoring, every element serves the central theme of calculated absurdity. By pairing bleached brows and sleek pompadours with unexpected props like makeshift top-hat barbells and cigarettes, Chachulska creates a visual language that feels both timeless and aggressively contemporary. The work successfully navigates the balance between high-contrast editorial photography and character-driven performance, turning the studio backdrop into a stage for architectural volume and expressive storytelling. Through this sequence, the publication reaffirms its commitment to elevated art direction, ensuring that each frame captures a sense of deliberate, high-fashion energy that resonates long after the initial glance.
Project Tidal Magazine · Shine Together
In the vibrant fashion editorial Shine Together, Tidal Magazine masterfully explores the intersection of high-concept design and raw, urban reality. Through the lens of photographer Anka Garbowska, the project channels a sophisticated visual narrative that seamlessly oscillates between stark, high-contrast black and white photography and soft, atmospheric natural light imagery. Stylist Tatiana Cinquino anchors the series with a bold curation of textures, pairing voluminous organza gowns and intricately crocheted accessories against the gritty backdrop of city streets and serene, foliage-heavy parks. The work leans into a deliberate juxtaposition, pitting the sculptural silhouettes of luxury garments against industrial concrete dividers and weathered utility poles to create a compelling sense of kinetic energy. By utilizing techniques such as high-speed freeze to capture rain mid-fall and subtle, tactile analogue-inspired compositions, the editorial achieves a timeless quality that feels both curated and spontaneous. Whether posing in a lush garden or leaning against a classic stone pillar, the talent embodies a confident fluidity that elevates each ensemble. Ultimately, this collection reads as a cohesive study in movement and geometry, where every fold of fabric and shadow on pavement serves to highlight the intrinsic tension between refined couture and the everyday world, delivering a compelling perspective on the modern luxury aesthetic.
Project Tidal Magazine · Still Motion
Still Motion for Tidal Magazine is a masterclass in fashion editorial portraiture that interrogates the tension between structural rigidity and ethereal fluidity. Captured through the lens of photographer Virginia Kluiters, the series leans into a high-contrast, avant-garde aesthetic by isolating subjects against an uncompromising pitch-black background. By utilizing precise studio strobe techniques alongside moments of cinematic motion-blur, the project explores the interplay between tactile textures and industrial accents. The styling functions as a central narrative device, where voluminous tulle silhouettes and intricate lace detailing are sharpened by cold, reflective metallic collars and sculptural accessories. This juxtaposition is further refined by the precise work of makeup artist Mai Mor, whose sharp, dramatic eye makeup provides a grounding anchor to the otherwise airy and experimental fashion choices. The result is a body of work that feels both technically disciplined and intentionally unrestrained, capturing a sense of movement frozen in time. Through its minimalist composition and focus on the interplay of light and fabric, Still Motion transcends traditional luxury fashion imagery, instead favoring a sophisticated, art-forward approach that emphasizes the interplay between body and garment. The project stands as a testament to the power of controlled lighting and intentional creative direction, where every pose is calibrated to highlight the interplay between soft, organic textile layers and the stark, architectural lines of the accessories themselves.
