Sketches, Scrapbooks & Storyboards
A Prelude to Vision

Each project begins with a spark of imagination, a vision waiting to be brought to life. I delve into this creative process through concept studies, sketches, and scrapbooks, weaving the initial threads of stories yet to unfold. These preliminary drawings are not just the foundation of our work; they are the first strokes of a masterpiece in the making, where ideas converge and evolve in the synergy of creativity and collaboration.

As a CCO & director of photography, my role transcends capturing images; it is about crafting narratives, articulating visions, and setting the stage for a dialogue between our team, our esteemed clients, and the world. These sketches and storyboards are the manifestation of our journey from conception to realisation, a testament to the dedication and passion that drives every assignment.

Below, I invite you to explore the genesis of our creations, from the ethereal elegance of Chiara Martinelli Fashion Jewels to the mystique of ‘Pigghiatu ri na’mprovvisa libbini’ from the ‘Those 7 Deadly Things’ project. Witness the transformation from initial sketches to the final images, and immerse yourself in the artistry that defines each piece of our visual symphony.
