What we handle

From set concept
to shoot day

We develop the set concept, choose materials and props, arrange sourcing and construction, and dress the set. The proposal defines what we will prepare in advance and handle on location.

The work ranges from product still lifes to larger environments. For Guerlain, we created two fragrance sets for Vogue Arabia and GQ Arabia in one shoot day. For Chaumet, we painted backdrops and assembled floral sets on location in Doha.
