For Soup #2, upcoming fashion photographer Steven Lyon has once again shot model Nadine Strittmatter in a sensually gritty spread.
Lyon's shoot for Soup was to capture the behind-the-scenes look of an actress; the editorial spread demonstrates a falling star and Strittmatter's poses are perfect for the concept. Nadine Strittmatter is styled in dark makeup, smudged to add effect to the overall spread. Shooting in a yellow light, Lyon has managed to capture the less glamorous part of the fast lifestyle. Nadine Strittmatter is seen in a drug-like haze and scantily clothed. The Soup #2 editorial spread was shot on the streets and clubs of Cuba.
Nadine Strittmatter's gritty makeup was done by Maud Laceppe and her poofy, tatted hair by Romina Menenti.
