Imagery.
Natural light, neutral palette, lived-in moments. The garment should look like it has somewhere to be.
Direction
Light
Window light, golden hour, overcast diffusion. No studio strobes. No harsh shadow. The Hamptons in October.
Setting
Domestic, coastal, considered. A kitchen at breakfast. A wood-paneled study. A beach in low season. Never staged.
Subject
Adults at ease. Mid-motion or mid-thought. No direct eye contact unless it earns it. Hands matter.
Composition
Generous negative space. Off-center subjects. Editorial crops. Allow the texture of the knit to do the work.
Mood
