Description

This editorial portrait for the WSJ project Movie Magic was photographed by Max Farago, featuring models Karen Elson and Scott Barnhill. The composition captures a dramatic, cinematic scene where a woman in a white slip dress and long red leather gloves is seated on a man wearing a white shirt and red tie. The man wears distinctive vintage-style eyeglasses and a bracelet, while soft directional lighting emphasizes the textures of their attire against a muted background. Fashion editor Anastasia Barbieri styled the shoot, complemented by hair styling from Tiago Goya and makeup by Holly Silius.
