Beyond The Souk is a fashion editorial series for Schön Magazine that balances intimate portraiture with atmospheric urban documentation. Photographed by Lesha Lich with styling by Beagy Zielinski, the project features model Alek Deng in a range of environments, from bright studio settings to candid, sunlit street scenes.
Utilizing analogue film techniques and natural light, the series captures sculptural silhouettes and intricate textures. The imagery shifts between extreme close-up beauty shots and wide-angle architectural frames, employing a clean, high-contrast aesthetic that underscores the collection’s vivid patterns and dramatic tailoring.
