The Magic Behind My Portrait Photography

In the world of portrait photography, every picture tells a story. My journey from a fleeting inspiration to a stunning portrait is both meticulous and magical. Let’s dive into the heart of my creative process, where artistry meets precision.

1. From Spark to Vision

It all starts with a spark—a vision of capturing someone in a certain light, a mood, or a moment. This initial spark evolves into a detailed plan. I design a storyboard to tell the photo’s story, picking the right clothes, accessories, and looks to make it real.

2. Selecting the Perfect Muse

The essence of my portraits lies in the connection with my subjects. Often, these are friends, making each session deeply personal and authentic. This connection is crucial for portraying the true spirit of the person in front of the lens.

3. Scheduling and Scouting

Choosing the right moment and setting is paramount. I select the date and location with careful consideration of the natural lighting and the ambiance that best complements my vision.

4. Gear and Preparation

No detail is too small in preparing for the shoot. I ensure all my equipment is ready and double-checked, from charged batteries to the chosen palette of colours and clothes. This meticulous preparation sets the stage for a flawless session.
