The cover shoot by photographer Marcus Ohlsson for Velvet Magazine is filled with stunning closeup shots of model Emily Senko. Captured entirely in black and white, it showcases swimwear that is at once sporty and seductive. Although it is clearly a fashion editorial, the photoshoot could easily grace the walls of an art gallery. The lighting and composition is beautifully sculptural.
Appearing in the July 2012 issue of the publication, the cover shoot by Marcus Ohlsson for Velvet Magazine was styled by Laura Bianchi. Concentrating on two piece bathing suits, the looks are as minimalist as the editorial itself is. Shot on location against an expanse of sky, the simple swimwear looks were complemented with slicked-back hair by Mike Lundgren and understated makeup by Katarina Håkansson.
