Maja Salvador has just graced Preview's August 2023 cover, commemorating a very special milestone in the actress' life. The shoot, held months ahead of her luxurious destination wedding, captured Maja basking in the sun with a splendid bridal glow.
In this episode of The Making Of, we learn about how Preview tried to differentiate the photos from all of Maja's equally beautiful celebratory shoots: her pre-nup, civil wedding, and of course, her dreamy nuptials in Bali. Press play to hear all about it!

"Maja Salvador is entering a new chapter in her life, and we're very honored that she chose Preview to commemorate this milestone with," Preview's Editor-in-Chief Marj Ramos-Clemente shares before expounding on the challenge of how to make her cover shoot different from all the other wedding shoots Maja has done before.
To do this, Creative Director Bacs Arcebal went for an "unconventional bride" approach. "Just doing ordinary things while still wearing a bridal veil," he shares.
Lensed by photographer Andrea Genota, we see Maja take on the streets engaged in everyday activities whilst adorned with a bridal veil. The fashion direction, featuring pieces from Carolina Herrera, Jimmy Choo, Tory Burch, Kate Spade, Dion Lee, Isle the Label, Adidas, Fendi, and Suki, redefines bridal style with unexpected elements that touch on athleisure and the trendy balletcore aesthetic.
For her beauty look, her go-to glam team of makeup artist Denise Ochoa and hairstylist Florenz Torentegui enhanced her bridal glow with soft and romantic makeup and windswept hair.
Amidst urban landscapes, Maja's carefree spirit shines, as she interacts warmly with passersby and her co-star, Kisses, the dog. The end results reflect Maja's authentic charm and then-excitement for her upcoming wedding.
