The Travel Almanac: Between the Marshes

Dec 2025

For The Travel Almanac, 'Between the Marshes' serves as a study in contrast, juxtaposing rugged rural environments with the precision of studio-lit editorial portraiture. Photographer Sam Khoury captures model Ivy Stewart across a series of stark, high-contrast monochrome and soft pastel images, navigating between windswept, overgrown meadows and minimalist, clean-lined backdrops. Fashion editor and stylist Claudia Sinclair defines the aesthetic through an avant-garde lens, balancing structural tailoring—such as tweed jackets, brocade skirts, and voluminous coats—with retro-inflected styling. The project leans into a moody, atmospheric visual language, utilizing grainy film-like textures and natural light to emphasize fabric silhouettes and architectural details.
