Minka Kelly has shared a glimpse into her latest photoshoot, showcasing not just her striking looks but also giving credit to the talented team who helped create the glamorous images.
In her recent Instagram post, the actress shared a series of elegant portraits while acknowledging the creative professionals behind the scenes. The images show Kelly in what appears to be sophisticated styling, captured by photographer Vic Stevens.
The post’s caption simply lists the team with corresponding emojis: “📷: @vsteves, 💄: @georgieeisdellmakeup, 💇🏻♀️: @marktownsend1, 👗: @emmajademorrison.”
Behind The Creative Vision
Kelly’s post highlights the collaborative nature of professional photoshoots, giving recognition to makeup artist Georgie Eisdell, hairstylist Mark Townsend, and stylist Emma Morrison – a team she’s worked with repeatedly in recent months.
This isn’t the first time Kelly has showcased work with this particular creative team. Just hours before, she posted another set of images with the identical crew, suggesting a comprehensive photoshoot session that yielded multiple stunning looks.
Recent Media Appearances
The photoshoot comes during a busy period for Kelly, who recently celebrated her Netflix series “Ransom Canyon” reaching the #1 position on the streaming platform. In a jubilant post last week, she wrote: “You guys made #RansomCanyon #1 in the country on @Netflix and I couldn’t be more grateful. What a special day today. Thank you!! Congratulations to my Ransom family, I love you all!!”
Kelly has been making the media rounds to promote the series, including an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. She shared a photo from her time on the show with the caption: “Loved hanging with @jimmykimmel at @JimmyKimmelLive tonight! #RansomCanyon.”
New York Times Feature
Beyond her Netflix success, Kelly recently expressed gratitude for a New York Times feature about her. In a thoughtful Instagram post, she wrote: “Print just hits different. The amount of years I’ve had this paper delivered to my home and the first thing I’d do is open to the arts section to now see this is…wild.”
She continued: “It seems insane to say but an outlet that actually covers you as a human being and individual and doesn’t trauma porn or previous boyfriend paint everything. I can’t believe it’s been rare but wow, it really stands out how distinctly different this was.”
Career Renaissance
The 44-year-old actress first gained widespread recognition for her role as Lyla Garrity in the acclaimed series “Friday Night Lights” (2006–2009). Since then, her career has included notable roles in shows like “Parenthood,” “Almost Human,” and “Titans.”
Born in Los Angeles to former Aerosmith guitarist Rick Dufay and the late exotic dancer Maureen Kelly, Minka has navigated a career that has seen her work across television and film, including roles in “The Roommate,” “Just Go with It,” and “Lee Daniels’ The Butler.”
Her current project, “Ransom Canyon,” appears to have special significance for Kelly. In another recent post, she shared: “Whatever happens with this show, I had the time of my life with some of the best people I’ve ever had the privilege to know and to work with. I love this Ransom family forever and then some. I’m eternally grateful that I got to be a part of it.”
She even revealed that one of her “favorite things about getting to play Quinn was that I’d have to learn to play the piano,” sharing a video clip of herself practicing a piece written by the show’s composer, Jeff Cardoni.
Fashion Editorial Presence
In addition to her Netflix success, Kelly has been featured in recent editorials for major publications. She tagged Town & Country magazine in one post, writing: “A moment with @townandcountrymag talking all things life and #RansomCanyon,” and thanked Glamour magazine in another.
These appearances in top-tier publications, combined with her Netflix success, suggest Kelly is experiencing a significant moment in her career, balancing streaming content with traditional media presence.
As evidenced by her latest photoshoot with her trusted glam team, Kelly continues to present polished, sophisticated imagery while promoting her various projects. The consistency of her creative collaborators indicates she has found a team that understands her aesthetic and helps translate her vision to the camera.
