he result is a series that feels both powerful and personal. a visual exploration of identity, intimacy and the distance between the person we see publicly and the person beyond it.
Photographed by Olivia Malone, the story presents Jama in a more intimate setting, moving away from the polished familiarity of television and social media and towards something more personal. Across the series, confidence, vulnerability and sensuality sit alongside one another, creating a portrait that feels considered without losing its sense of spontaneity.
The imagery was created at YOU. Studio 2, using the scale and flexibility of Studio 2 to build a series of distinct settings around Jama. The space allowed the team to experiment with composition, movement and light, creating an environment that could shift between bold, graphic imagery and quieter, more intimate moments.
