The Girls of Summer
Aug 2026
The Girls of Summer is an editorial project produced for Pop Magazine, featuring a series of intimate portraits that explore raw emotional expression. Captured through the lens of photographer Oliver Hadlee Pearch, the series utilizes dramatic low-key lighting and moody atmospheres to frame its subjects against stark, minimalist backgrounds. Styling details, including graphic face paint and theatrical makeup by Faye Bluff, accentuate the cinematic quality of the work. The collection features models Alyson Dubey and Misty Kyd, with the compositions focusing on close-up framing and high-contrast chiaroscuro techniques to heighten the intensity of each image.
