Swimwear Photography
Hello,
Bringing bold, confident storytelling to brands that live for the sun.
Combining commercial polish with narrative style, I create high-impact campaigns, lookbooks and magazine-quality editorials that celebrate swimwear, resortwear and body confidence. Whether you’re launching a new line, refreshing your visuals or building your brand presence, my work is tailored to elevate your message—on the sand, poolside or in studio.
What I Offer
Commercial brand campaigns
Whether you need full creative direction and production from scratch, or just a trusted photographer to execute your vision, I can lead the whole shoot or collaborate with your existing art director or producer. From concept to delivery, I adapt to what the brand needs.
Story-driven magazine editorials
Creative, emotionally-led fashion stories crafted to feel cinematic and meaningful, the kind that belong in print and leave a lasting impression.
Lookbooks, catalogues & e-commerce shoots
Polished, cohesive product and lifestyle imagery that speaks your brand language and helps convert browsers into buyers, online or in print.
Billboard & Outdoor
Impactful, scroll-stopping imagery designed to hold attention in high-traffic spaces, whether shot in studio or out in the wild.
Digital & Social Content
Tailored visuals for vertical screens, short-form videos, GIFs, and social-ready cuts that feel native to Instagram, TikTok and beyond.
Creative & Art direction
Helping you shape the vision before we even touch a camera, from initial concepts and moodboards to refining the feel on set.
BTS & campaign videos (see Motion page)
Behind-the-scenes clips, campaign edits and teaser films that give your audience a deeper connection to the work and your brand story.
Casting Consultation
Need the right face for your concept? I can help cast talent that aligns with your brand story, from agency options to emerging faces that bring something new.
