Visiting my first session with the lovely Anna Gil Mast here in Valencia. Two years and several shoots later, I’m still amazed by her talent, beauty, and chill vibe.

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.

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.

A standout image from my recent shoot with Mariia last week. I am so glad she reached out asking to do a shoot while they were visiting Valencia. I can’t get over how amazing Mariia is in front of the camera lens as she’s demonstrating here.

Yoel has an amazing look and I love how these shutters frame him in this shot. He looks like he’s working within a sunglasses advert here

“Shoot into the light” has been a part of my photographic philosophy for a long time. I feel the most beautiful and amazing things can happen when you use this approach. In this case, I doubled-down on this idea by adding my light to the backlighting coming from the late afternoon sky. More details below…

The lovely Pauline N. taking beauty to a whole new level during our shoot on the streets here in Valencia. I met Pauline when a group of us visited a local art gallery where she works. She was very friendly and kind as she talked to us about the works on display, and I couldn’t get over her amazing face. I returned a couple of days later to awkwardly ask her if she would allow me to photograph her. Thankfully, she said yes :). Thank you so much for working with me, Pauline!
