There are encounters that feel like a discovery — as though someone steps not into your studio, but into your creative language itself. This past weekend, I had the joy of photographing Purest Magazine’s newest model, Mary Asteri.
The result is a gallery we have titled Asteri, a word that means “star,” and in many ways captures what unfolded.
Shot in my bright, light-filled living room, the series is infused with warmth and intimacy. The space itself seemed to soften around Mary, catching her in frames of glowing simplicity. The way she held herself — serene yet full of hidden vitality — turned each image into more than a portrait. It became a glimpse of light turned human.
Asteri is about presence. About how stillness can radiate more than movement, how a gaze lowered to the floor can speak more than a smile. It is an exploration of softness, of trust, of the way light rests on skin and transforms it into something eternal.
We are proud to welcome Mary into the circle of Purest muses. Her debut gallery is now published, and we invite you to immerse yourself in this constellation of delicate beauty. Asteri is live.
