About

This extensive fashion editorial for Behind the Blinds features model Sara Sampaio in a series of intimate and varied portraits. Captured by photographer David Roemer, the series moves between minimalist studio environments and textured urban settings, emphasizing a wide range of styling choices and character studies. The work relies on the interplay of natural light and high-contrast flash techniques to highlight intricate garment textures, from heavy wool and leather to draped silks. Styling by Aryeh Lappin provides a foundation for the project, layering structured tailoring with playful accessories. The editorial aesthetic is further defined by the contributions of hair stylist Gonn Kinoshita, makeup artist Deanna Hagan, and manicurist Nori, who collectively facilitate a variety of distinct looks across the vertical portrait series. The project employs techniques such as analogue film grain and chiaroscuro lighting to ground the high-fashion subjects in a classic, cinematic mood.
