In my portrait work—both in studio and on location—I lead every stage of production, from pre-visualization and lighting design to directing subjects and post-processing. Each session begins with a creative concept, often inspired by a lighting technique or a specific aesthetic like bold surrealism or soft glam. I use lighting intentionally as a storytelling tool to shape mood, depth, and tone, as seen in the “Hollywood Work of Art” shoot. Depending on the vision, I create controlled studio environments or adapt lighting to complement natural settings.
