Faux tiger hide rugs. Crocodile skin vinyl chairs. Zebra striped walls. These were just some of the many flourishes I found at a recent assignment in Denver.

My client, Image Studios, houses several independent stylists under one roof. In this co-working model, they work hard to set themselves apart with their use of luxurious design. I was hired to create photos and videos to help attract new residents with high-end clients.

An appeal for tenants is the freedom to personalize their spaces. I chose environmental portraiture to capture existing stylists immersed in their designs to give the viewer a feeling of what their future could be.

The video needed to capture the overall studio luxuriousness while tying together highly individualized spaces into a cohesive presentation. I used fashion-style lighting, smooth camera movements that were always in motion, and graphical flourishes to bring out a theme of glamour.

It's always fun to highlight vibrant spaces and bring attention to the people behind them. 

Do you have an upcoming project that needs both photo and video? If so, I’d love to connect with you.
