About Editorial & Magazine Features

My editorial work relies on constant communication with the creative director and styling team from day one. Before we even step on set, we finalize mood boards and reference shots to ensure the lighting and posing match the specific aesthetic of the publication, whether it's a high-fashion spread for ELLE or an impactful cover for Filmfare.
