— With a breadth of experience as a Creative/Art Director I thrive on collaboration, working with some of the leading names from within the field of luxury and fashion image generation.
— I work closely with photographers, stylists, hair and beauty teams, set designers and directors to create both still and moving image.
I also work with editors, writers and strategists to provide an objective framework and narrative for the output of these materials.
— Delivering projects from concept to final realisation I have been involved at every stage. From presentation of concepts to clients, pre-production, casting, on set and location art direction for stills and moving image, directing retouching to video editing and grading.
— I have assembled and led teams of designers, creating advertising campaigns for traditional and digital media, brand identities, editorial and e-com digital platforms, printed brochures, book and magazine design and bespoke typefaces.
— In addition to my network of established creatives and agents,
I have successfully identified and collaborated with emerging talent and I am constantly surveying the luxury, fashion and cultural landscape to ensure the work I produce is engaging and relevant to its intended audience.
