About Creative Direction & Casting
What I Do
I’m Jessica, and I’m all about building visual stories for fashion shoots - not just picking clothes, but shaping the whole mood. My job is to take your brand’s vibe and turn it into something people actually feel when they see the photos. Sometimes it’s dreamy and soft, sometimes it’s wild and edgy. I love the chaos of shoot days, working with a fun team to get something cool on camera.
My Process: Fast & Real
- Start with the big idea. I dig into your brand, make a concept, and build a moodboard - colours, lighting, location, all locked in.
- Model selection for brand shoots is key. I look for faces that suit your story, not just models who look good in clothes. Got a strong network to tap into for this.
- On shoot days, I’m everywhere - talking to the photographer about shots, guiding models on posing, making sure the plan comes alive. If something goes wrong, jugaad kar lenge (we’ll figure it out, no stress).
A Story That Sums Me Up
Once, someone handed me a car cover and told me to make a couture dress. Two hours later, we had a killer shot. That’s the kind of creative hustle I thrive on.
Why Work With Me
Whether it’s fashion campaign storytelling for lookbooks, e-commerce, or editorials, I’m happiest when the team is buzzing and ideas are flowing. If your brand needs a shoot with heart and instinct, I’m in.

My Story
Okay, so picture this: someone hands me a car cover and goes, ‘Make a dress.’ No plan, no pattern, just me, some scissors, and two hours of pure chaos. That’s me – I thrive on last-minute madness, DIY hacks, and those long, rainy shoot days when the team’s energy makes it all worth it. It’s never just about the final shot; it’s the whole wild ride, the laughs, the hustle, the magic behind the scenes. #stylistlife
