Studio PI is the award-winning photography and illustration agency that promotes equality and celebrates diversity.
We know that certain sections of society are greatly underrepresented in the creative industry: Women. People of colour. People living with disabilities. People from working class backgrounds. Studio PI Founder Sachini Imbuldeniya falls into all four of these groups; she’s made it our mission to bring more diversity to the creative industry and champion those artists whose voices aren’t heard enough and whose talent isn’t seen enough.
This makes our work better too. We understand how brands benefit from a wider range of fresh voices who bring with them a new perspective and provide beautiful, innovative and balanced visual content that is a truer reflection of the society we live in.
