ART DIRECTION
PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEO
I direct photo and video shoots that transform brand strategy into captivating, emotionally resonant storytelling. Every set is an opportunity to align creativity with clarity, delivering work that is on time, on brief, and always on brand. Whether for consumer packaging, digital content, or social campaigns, I lead teams to create imagery that is magnetic, meaningful, and strategically grounded.
I bring a blend of emotional intelligence, aesthetic instinct, and production knowledge to every shoot. My goal is not just to make things beautiful, but to make them work creatively, commercially, and culturally. I lead with intention, move quickly, and foster respectful, collaborative environments where each team member can contribute their best.
HOW I WORK
No two shoots are ever the same. Crew shifts, evolving goals, and tight timelines are part of the process. What keeps everything moving is strong creative leadership. I assess the needs of the project, align with the brand, and guide the team toward a shared vision that feels focused, energized, and achievable.
Before the shoot, I dive deep into the brand’s emotional and strategic context. I study guidelines, decode tone, and explore the role each product or scene plays in the larger ecosystem. On set, I get hands-on to guide composition, colour, texture, lighting, and appeal, all while safeguarding accuracy and brand integrity.
My decisions are quick and thoughtful, shaped by years of experience. I understand the pressure of real-world constraints like print process, compliance, and approvals. I know how to adapt when things shift by adjusting lighting, setups, and shot sequences, always without compromising the big picture.
