Editorial: Late Nights and Southern Lights with Ziwe at W Nashville

From satirical stardom to southern style, Ziwe has carved out a space in culture by saying the quiet part loud—and looking good doing it.

Alaina was brought on as the Stills Photographer to collaborate with the teams at Vogue, Condé Nast, W Hotels, and Gear Seven, capturing a suite of celebrity portraits and branded imagery that reflected the project’s playful spirit and Americana edge. Read the full article here.
