Disciplines, I
Vanity on film
Medium format and 35mm, hand-loaded on set. I shoot slowly, the way the women I photograph deserve. The grain, the breath, the imperfection, all kept.

Manifesto
I photograph women the way painters once did, slowly, honestly, and without apology.
This is my closed-door studio. Every session is built for one woman: the light, the music, the wardrobe, the silence. Nothing is borrowed from another shoot.
I deliver hand-graded film stills and a short cinematic film. Prints arrive on cotton rag in a black linen folio, sealed, unmarked, yours.

Disciplines, II
Cinematic short film
Anamorphic, scored, hand-graded. A short film cut alongside the stills, the kind you put on at the end of the night and watch in silence.

Disciplines, III
Bridal and honeymoon
The morning of, the slip, the long bath, the first private hour. Made for the bride, kept for the marriage. Discreet, devotional, never posed.
