commissioned project
beauty photography
This series was brought to life in collaboration with the talented makeup artist Lan Nguyen-Grealis, who created a look inspired by a commedia dell'arte persona. Her bold and theatrical approach to makeup set the tone for the entire project.
Drawing from the world of theater, I used hard, contrasty lighting to emulate the dramatic effects of stage spotlights. This lighting style enhanced the intricate details of Lan's work, creating an interplay of light and shadow that mirrors the expressive and captivating nature of commedia dell'arte characters.
