Project Vanity Fair France · Vanity Fair / Deva Cassel & Julien D ...
In a striking visual narrative for Vanity Fair France, photographer Luc Braquet captures an intimate and evocative editorial portrait series featuring Deva Cassel and Julien De Casal. Moving beyond standard fashion documentation, the project leans into a deeply cinematic aesthetic that draws inspiration from classic noir and high-concept storytelling. The collection utilizes a range of sophisticated lighting techniques, including dramatic low-key or chiaroscuro setups and soft natural light, to carve out mood-heavy environments that feel both expansive and intensely private. From the nostalgia of analogue film strips to the textured depth of studio strobe portraiture, the editorial is meticulously crafted to balance human connection with high-fashion sensibilities. Stylist Tania Rat Patron enhances this atmospheric tension through a deliberate curation of textures—pairing delicate lace, sheer tights, and intricate fur sleeves against the solid, grounding silhouettes of sharp-shouldered blazers and wool tailoring. The result is a masterclass in modern magazines, media & entertainment photography where the setting—ranging from opulent, dimly lit hotel interiors to the iconic, industrial skyline of Paris—acts as a silent partner to the subjects. By juxtaposing pensive expressions with architectural framing, the project succeeds in creating a refined, timeless tableau that feels both like a contemporary editorial and a scene stolen from a feature film, leaving viewers to invent the narrative between the frames.

Project Vanity Fair France · Elle Macpherson
In this latest editorial portrait for Vanity Fair France, the lens of photographer Tom Newton captures supermodel Elle Macpherson in a moment of understated elegance that defines modern magazine photography. Rather than relying on the high-octane spectacle often associated with global media figures, the project leans into a refined, minimalist aesthetic that feels both accessible and deeply sophisticated. By utilizing high-quality natural light that washes over the frame, Newton creates a sense of clarity and ease, ensuring that the subject remains the singular focus of the narrative. Macpherson is depicted in a crisp, monochromatic ensemble, seated within a clean studio setting that avoids unnecessary artifice or clutter. The composition relies on the interplay of light and texture, specifically the interplay between the subject's relaxed posture and the natural wooden elements of the armchair. This portrait avoids the traps of over-production, favoring a classic, timeless visual language that allows the personality of the subject to resonate without distraction. As a piece of magazine editorial work, the project highlights how deliberate simplicity and precise lighting can elevate a celebrity portrait into something that feels elevated, fresh, and visually arresting. It is a masterclass in controlled minimalism, proving that when the execution is handled with such poise, the resulting imagery carries an enduring impact that far outlasts fleeting trends in digital content production.
