Through the Gateway is an editorial fashion feature for Flaunt magazine starring Ava Phillippe. Photographed by Dennis Leupold, the series explores a blend of sharp, high-contrast studio portraiture and warm, nostalgia-tinged lifestyle scenes.
The project channels a tactile aesthetic, heavily utilising analogue film techniques and natural light to frame the subject across diverse settings. From minimalist grey backdrops that highlight monochromatic textures to domestic interiors accented by vintage furnishings and floral tapestries, the imagery maintains a cohesive focus on refined composition.
Creative production was led by fashion stylist Siena Montesano, with hair styling by Christopher Farmer and makeup artistry by Alexandra French.
