Alexis has been a good friend of mine since high school, and for as long as I’ve known her, she’s been the kind of person who believes in the potential in others. A lot of her work, professionally, involves in investing in new emerging talent in music spaces, so when we had set up a quick shoot when she was back in the Bay Area, I wanted to highlight this brightness and warmth that she has always had.
On the editing side of things, I really had a ton of fun playing around with using color to emphasize this warm and optimistic atmosphere, despite it being the complete opposite since it was incredibly cold, especially by the coast. Still, compositionally I wanted to play around with backlighting and low angles to highlight Alexis’s welcoming personality so hopefully that resonates with you too!
