About

Beauty Projects Issue 2 presents a comprehensive fashion editorial series anchored by model Sara Blomqvist. Through a collection of studio and location-based portraits, the project explores the interplay between tactile textiles—such as chunky knits, intricate crochet, and leather—and the structural precision of high-contrast lighting. Photographer Anya Holdstock employs a diverse range of techniques, moving between the sharp, graphic shadows of hard light and the polished, luminous quality of beauty-focused studio setups. Fashion styling by Sophie Van Der Welle provides a clean, modern aesthetic, while hair stylist Maki Tanaka and makeup artist Athena Paginton work in tandem to craft a consistent, slicked-back signature look, punctuating the series with subtle graphic elements like razor-thin brows and statement silver hardware.
