Porter Magazine

Feb 2025

Porter Magazine features actor Cate Blanchett for its 02/03/2025 issue, captured in a comprehensive editorial portrait series. The imagery leans into a cinematic aesthetic, frequently utilizing analogue film and heavy grain to build a tactile, layered narrative around the subject. By experimenting with optical distortions, such as fluted glass and translucent surfaces, the series introduces a fragmented, painterly quality that contrasts with the clean, high-contrast studio portraiture. Fashion editor Helen Broadfoot leads the styling, which emphasizes structural textures through leather tailoring and metallic accessories. The production incorporates professional hair styling by Nicola Clarke, makeup by Mary Greenwell, and manicured details by Michelle Humphrey, with set design by Georgia Currell. The editorial aesthetic balances raw, monochrome focus with warm-toned, nostalgic composition.
