Aesop Eidesis
Commissioned by Aesop to visualize Eidesis, I directed the photography and film vignettes. Eidesis is the fourth release from the Othertopias fragrance series, inspired by the myth of Echo and Narcissus.
Eidesis has a deep, warm, woody scent but not heavy. There's an alluring top note that stays with you, drawing you back. And underneath that warmth, something refreshing. It made me think of a walk just after rain. Damp, cool air. The enveloping warmth of a coat. Present and transportive at once.
The photos and video vignettes were created with that feeling in mind, an exploration of a lingering scent, captured at home, in the quiet spaces where fragrance actually lives. The power of scent is never really about place, it’s about where it transports you.
Floyd Beside Table
Commissioned by Floyd to shoot and style their bedside table for use across their website and social media.
The visual direction was warm, inviting, and intentional. Rather than a simple product shot, I wanted to show the table in use — as an effortless addition to the Floyd bed, not just an object beside it. Every styling choice was considered, from Tekla sheets to minimal props to a Noguchi lamp, building an atmosphere that felt lived in and calm without being precious about it.
The idea was to let the table belong somewhere. To make the viewer feel like they were already there.
Sovrn Skateboards ‘Moving, Still’
What began as a quiet photo series in my apartment became something larger — a continued visual story and a skateboard design for Sovrn Skateboards.
The original lily photographs were taken in January 2021, during a period of prolonged stillness. Photographing these lilies, holding glass, working with light and steam, gave me an unexpected sense of comfort and clarity.
The straight stems of lilies suggest an upward mobility to me. The idea that even in stillness, there is movement. That became the through line for everything — the photographs, the board design, the film.
A year later, all I wanted was that stillness again. But this time, inwardly.
