Photographer Andreas Ortner serves up a striking tennis editorial for the cover story of Maison Ë magazine’s Spring 2026 issue, and every frame is drenched in warm light. Model Susanne Knipper takes center court in airy silhouettes that blur the line between sport and high fashion.
Styled by Astrid Doil, she moves through clay courts and terracotta-walled settings in billowing satin pants, oversized yellow jackets, crisp white pleated skirts, and tailored shorts.

The color palette stays rooted in cream, butter yellow, and soft pink, playing beautifully against the burnt sienna backdrop. The footwear choices elevate the whole story. White sneakers ground the sporty looks while pointed heels add unexpected glamour.

A pink Dior book tote and leather tennis bag complete the court-to-cocktails energy. Hair and makeup artist Uli Wissel keeps things effortless with tousled blonde waves and sun-kissed, understated beauty.
Production and casting by Moira Matthews, with creative direction from Sandra Reichl, round out the team behind this shoot.
