Blooming is a beauty and fashion editorial series for Elle Mexico, featuring model Paula Gorozpe. Photographed by Mauricio Sanchez, the project leans into graphic simplicity and tactile contrast through a series of close-up portraits and still-life studies. The imagery emphasizes clean lines, botanical motifs, and detailed styling, including intricate 3D nail art and sculptural hair designs.
Under the direction of Claudia Cándano, the editorial utilizes a clean studio aesthetic and macro focus to highlight textures, from the organic curve of orchid blooms to glossy beauty finishes. The series employs bright, direct lighting and a warm, high-fashion palette to maintain a polished, consistent tone throughout the magazine feature.
