Case Study

Original Image

The original image lacks a sense of storytelling and flare. Especially when you look at it beside the final copy. I wanted to experiment with lighting and see what I could achieve in the studio. Then, evaluate how I could create a story from this image.

Result

Using artificial light for this studio session was an intentional creative choice, designed to add depth and drama to the composition. The final image carries a sense of storytelling, with rich red tones and lowered exposure enhancing its intensity and emotional weight. Cropping the image heights the focus and evokes a more powerful, fierce energy.
