What do you love about your job?

What I love about my job is the ability to capture and preserve moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. Each project offers a new story and a unique challenge, allowing me to connect with people and scenes in meaningful ways. The creative process, from envisioning the shot to seeing the final image, is incredibly fulfilling. I also appreciate the opportunity to continually learn and grow, as photography constantly evolves with new techniques and technologies.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

I’ve worked on a variety of shoots, including commercial, event, portrait, food, and drone photography. To make each type of shoot special, I focus on tailoring my approach to the unique needs of the project:

• Commercial: I emphasize brand identity and messaging, ensuring that the visuals align with the client’s goals and resonate with their target audience.
• Event: I capture candid moments and key highlights, aiming to document the atmosphere and emotions of the event while staying unobtrusive.
• Portrait: I work to build a rapport with the subject to bring out their personality, using thoughtful composition and lighting to create impactful images.
• Food: I focus on making the dishes look as appetizing as possible by using careful styling and lighting to highlight textures and colors.
• Drone: I capture sweeping, dramatic perspectives that offer a unique view of the scene, incorporating elements of composition and lighting to enhance the visual impact.

Each shoot is approached with a blend of creativity and technical skill to ensure the final images are both engaging and meaningful.
