Nylon China

Jun 2025

Captured by photographer Mia Song, the June 2025 cover story for Nylon China leans into a tennis-inspired aesthetic. The editorial series frames its subjects against the textural backdrop of red clay courts, utilizing natural light to highlight the crisp lines of athletic apparel and classic sportswear. The imagery plays with perspective and motion, incorporating high-speed freeze techniques to capture suspended tennis balls and poised stances. From contemplative, individual portraits on court-side benches to group arrangements along the net, the project maintains a clean, uniform visual language across the full set of editorial assets.
