Candy Magazine: Candy Magazine #15 2025 Covers

Jan 2025

Candy Magazine presents the covers for issue #15, a series of editorial portraits that lean into a clean, minimalist aesthetic. The project features a diverse cast including Mel Ottenberg, Hari Nef, Amanda Lepore, and Connie Fleming, captured against neutral and studio-set backgrounds. Creative direction is led by Jerry Stafford and Luis Venegas, with photography contributed by Claudio Robles, Daniel Riera, and Trevor Stones. The imagery utilizes analogue film techniques and soft, natural light to maintain a consistent visual language across the edition. Editorial styling, managed by Alicia Padrón, Jerry Stafford, and Mel Ottenberg, anchors the portraits with a focus on high-fashion silhouettes and distinct textures.
