In 2025, MerryJane Isla Alvarez was crowned 'Miss Photogenic' during the Miss Universe Netherlands finale.
Luminism is an art movement that emerged in the 19th century, in which painters tried to capture the play of sunlight and atmosphere on their canvases. In this photo series, the same principle is applied: the body is not a subject, but a bearer of light, an apparition among flowers, sun, and shadow. Where Éclat shines in studio light, Luminism radiates in sunlight. A moment of calm, of bloom, of connection with the surroundings.
