Salt in the Afternoon, shot by photographer Dennison Bertram, evokes a summery and nostalgic vibe. With muted colors and softly focused backgrounds, the photos capture those late summer afternoons perfectly.
Model Decimaria is shown on the beach with the sun setting behind her. The images are soft and dreamy, but her expressions are intensely fierce. Although pairing these two together may seem strange, the juxtaposition works for Salt in the Afternoon in creating a soft yet striking editorial.
Styled by Veronica Mazziotta, the clothes are 70s inspired. Some of the pieces include metallic jackets and floral tops. Summer may not be here just yet, but Salt in the Afternoon will surely leave you feeling nostalgic and longing for it even more.
