Barranquilla vibrated with a unique editorial ​

 

15 YEARS CARNIVAL

​In the bustling streets of Barranquilla, María Elvira celebrated her fifteenth birthday in a way that captured the vibrant and cultural essence of carnival. This editorial was not only a photo shoot, but an immersion in the rich carnival tradition of the region. María Elvira appeared in two impressive costumes, each capturing a different aspect of the Barranquilla carnival. In the first costume, a dazzling white Pollera dress adorned with sequins, stood out for its elegance and tradition. The closed blouse and three-quarter sleeves with ruffles evoked the grace and solemnity of the occasion.

​The second suit was an explosion of color and movement. Made with feathers and sequins, a corset style, this outfit stood out for its striking design and festive energy. María Elvira not only radiated beauty, but also carried with her the joyful spirit of carnival.

The photo session was not limited to closed studios; It moved to the streets of Barranquilla, where the atmosphere was permeated with music and dance. Marimondas, native dances and other traditional costumes joined the celebration, creating a cultural collage that reflected the unique identity of the city. The infectious rhythms of chandé, Mapalé and cumbia resonated in each photograph, adding a vibrant rhythm to the session.

As a planner, organizing this experience was more than just coordinating; was to immerse yourself in the celebration of life and culture. Every detail not only contributed to the occasion, but told a story of joy, tradition and community. ​ The editorial of María Elvira's 15 years in Barranquilla was not just an event, but a celebration of the very soul of the city. From the dazzling costumes to the infectious rhythms and the palpable energy in the streets, this photo shoot captured the very essence of the Barranquilla carnival. María Elvira not only celebrated her transition to adulthood, but she also honored and shared the rich cultural heritage of her land.
