Superstar Stella
The beautiful Stella B. bringing all the glam vibes to this b&w image from our studio session back in January. The dress she’s wearing, from Kinnara Valencia, looks like it was made for her.

In the Game
A favorite from my recent shoot with @yanefrenski for @forbesbulgaria. Yane is an international expert in EdTech and innovation and is currently leading @vizipedia, a hub for educational games and interactive video. With that in mind, I placed him on this life-size chessboard in the Turia to tie in the gaming aspect of Yane’s work.

Red Chair # 5
Sonia takes the Red Chair down in this shot from our street session late last year. In these Red Chair session, I want to models to feel free to use it how they see fit. Sonia’s message to the chair is pretty clear to me 🙂
Sonia’s a wonderful model and also styled her outfit for this shoot.

Bright Blue Sky
On our way up from the rocky shore area where we were shooting, I asked Ingrid to stop. The view looking up at her as we climbed the rather distressed stairs looked amazing. The deep blue sky was framing her beautifully, and I knew I had to grab a few last shots before we left this space. So glad I did 🙂

Into the Light
Bessa lighting up the streets of Valencia in this outfit from Kinnara Valencia. This shot is another example of my philosophy of “shooting in to the light”. If possible, I like the strongest source of light to be coming from behind the subject. It doesn’t have to be directly behind them (or it) but I think doing this adds depth and drama to an image.

I Know How I Look
Gia giving some whimsy and attitude to the camera in this street fashion shot for our friends at Kinnara Valencia. I think this image gives you an idea of how fun it is to work with Gia as she brings a wonderful attitude and boundless energy to the space in front of the camera.

Classic Beauty Bessa
Bessa’s back today with the classic look of pin-stripes from Kinnara Valencia. To set the look for this outfit, I went decidedly retro with a single beauty dish and strong contrast black & white. My intent was to recall the classic fashion photo looks from decades ago.
