The Face Magazine “don’t slip up” 2025

About

This extreme close-up portrait features model Freya Nutter captured by photographer Alex Mader for The Face Magazine project don't slip up. The composition centers on a heavily overexposed face where high-key lighting washes out most facial details, leaving the light-colored eyes and parted lips softly defined. Set against a dark, moody background, the stark contrast accentuates the dramatic exposure choice. Fashion editor Delphine Danhier, hair stylist Michael Delmas, makeup artist Rebecca Wordingham, casting director Franziska Bachofen Echt, and set designer Sati Leonne contributed to the production.
