Marie Claire UK: Pride & Joy with Tracee Ellis Ross

Sep 2025

Marie Claire UK captures entertainer Tracee Ellis Ross in this editorial portrait series titled 'Pride & Joy.' The feature highlights a range of sculptural silhouettes and avant-garde tailoring, set against a backdrop of classical architectural elements and natural, diffused lighting environments. Photographer Andrew Yee utilizes a mix of warm, natural light and cool-toned soft lighting to frame the subject across both studio and interior settings. The portraits emphasize tactile details in the wardrobe, supported by hair styling from James Catalano and luminous makeup work by Lisa Storey. The project leans into a clean, editorial aesthetic, documented through both vertical and horizontal compositions.
