In Her Element
Mar 2026
In Her Element for American Vogue captures the intersection of high-fashion editorial and cinematic storytelling through a series of evocative portraits featuring actress Amanda Seyfried. Photographed by Eddie Wrey and styled by Jorden Bickham, the project masterfully balances the austerity of studio portraiture with the raw, expansive energy of the rural landscape. Seyfried transitions seamlessly between worlds, appearing in one frame amidst the golden-hued solitude of an open meadow and in the next within a moody, high-contrast studio setting defined by chiaroscuro lighting. The editorial narrative is anchored by tactile details—the delicate intricacies of lace, the structured volume of puffed sleeves, and the juxtaposition of antique props like spinning wheels against modern silhouettes. With movement direction by Celia Rowlson-Hall, the photography leans into dynamic poses and windswept hair, imbuing each frame with a palpable sense of grace. The creative team, including hair stylist Tamas Tuzes and makeup artist Emi Kaneko, leans into a natural yet polished aesthetic that honors the organic environment. By incorporating techniques like analogue film and 35mm film textures, the project achieves a timeless, cinematic quality. Whether through the lens of natural light or dramatic low-key shadows, In Her Element stands as a sophisticated exploration of form and poise, presenting a dialogue between the artisanal past and contemporary luxury fashion.
