About

For this striking editorial feature in Esquire U.S., actress Jenna Ortega is captured in a series of portraits that lean into a sophisticated, high-end aesthetic. Through the lens of photographer Chantal Anderson, the campaign moves beyond standard celebrity portraiture, instead channeling a sense of intimate, cinematic tension. The project balances high-fashion artifice with raw, authentic personality, utilizing high-key lighting to emphasize the intricate textures of layered feathers, delicate lace, and voluminous tulle. Fashion editor and stylist Alfonso Fernández Navas curated a wardrobe that juxtaposes structured tailoring and formal glamour with casual, tactile elements like oversized knitwear and subtle personal accessories, grounding the visuals in a contemporary reality. The grooming team, including hair stylist Cesar Ramirez, makeup artist Mélanie Inglessis, and manicurist Thuy Nguyen, expertly highlights Ortega’s natural features, ensuring the editorial minimalism remains front and center against stark, neutral backgrounds. Techniques such as natural light and live-action perspective shots lend the images a spontaneous, candid quality, moving the imagery away from overly polished studio standards. By blending these commercial sensibilities with an editorial edge, the feature effectively illustrates Ortega’s evolution as a dynamic cultural presence. The result is a cohesive, visually evocative narrative that feels both carefully constructed and refreshingly candid, marking a standout moment in the intersection of celebrity media and high-fashion photography.
