One light, one palette, one way of framing.
Written down once and carried through every film, still and post, until the brand is recognisable before the logo is read. For independent labels and luxury brands.

01 · Eyewear
One frame, three settings.
A single cat-eye frame carried through midday on the Riviera, a night in Venice and a studio. The frame never changes; the world around it does. Each setting is built on one idea, so the image is remembered before the product is read.

Venezia, 1 a.m.
StudioCase notes
BriefSelf-initiated concept: one cat-eye frame shown in three situations, a day on holiday, a night out and a high-fashion studio, in a form ready for commercial advertising, website and social media.
ChallengeThe frame had to stay identical in every image, in shape and lens colour, while the light and the place changed completely.
ApproachOne palette and one high-fashion model across all three scenes. Each scene lit as on a real shoot: midday sun, on-camera flash, studio light.
ResultThree images that read as one campaign: the same model, one palette, and the frame unchanged from image to image.
02 · Fashion
A full campaign from one dress.
Every set starts from the brand’s own product photograph — the garment itself is never redesigned. What moves around it is the casting, the place and the camera.

Case notes
BriefOn-model campaign sets built from a brand’s own product photographs of a dress, for commercial advertising, website and social media.
ChallengeThe cut, fabric and details could not change, and the model’s face had to stay the same in every frame.
ApproachOne model fixed from the first approved frame. Settings chosen to share one palette, so the set works as one campaign on every channel. Natural poses and camera optics, so the images read as photographed.
ResultEach dress delivered in several settings: the same face, the same cut, one palette across advertising, website and social media.
03 · High jewellery
Jewellery shot as one collection.
Different pieces from one collection, shot in one palette and one light, so the Instagram grid looks like one brand rather than a row of separate product photos.
Client work · campaign · film · profile grid
CampaignThree frames and the film they are cut from
ProfileNine frames as one page
The same brand laid out as an Instagram grid: three sets, one palette, so the page reads as a single campaign.
Case notes
BriefA campaign and an Instagram profile for a high jewellery brand.
ChallengeDifferent pieces had to look like one collection, the jewellery had to stay product-accurate, and the model’s face had to stay the same.
ApproachOne palette and one light across every piece, with each frame built from the product photograph.
ResultThree campaign frames, a short film and a nine-frame profile grid that reads as one brand.
04 · Fragrance
Fragrance in a world of its own.
Still life set in a scene instead of a white box: red lacquer and a summer orchard, with the glass itself untouched.

05 · Watches
In detail and on the wrist.
Two frames for one watch: a close-up on wet stone at the waterline, and the same watch on the wrist of a man stepping off a boat in the Venice lagoon. The first shows the detail; the second shows how it is worn.

06 · How it works
What a campaign contains.
The code is decided first — that part is not hurried. If you have a brand book, it remains the foundation and the direction is built on top of it.
How we startThree steps, no shoot
You send the product
The brand’s own photographs of the piece, in every colourway you want shown. Nothing else is needed to begin.
The visual code is proposed
Light, palette, optics and framing on one page, with a first frame to see it. Approved before anything is produced.
The set arrives
Frames, film and the ordered feed, within days of approval. Two rounds of revisions. Files, prompts and the code are yours, for every channel.
What the set contains
Nine frames as one 4:5 set, plus 9:16 for stories and reels. One vertical film, 10–15 seconds, with live sound, and a six-second version for ads. Carousels and the grid, ordered, with captions. On request, a launch page in the same visual code — only together with a campaign, never on its own.
