ABOUT MGNS.FOTO

With over a decade in the film, music video, and television industry, I bring a cinematic eye and hands-on approach to my work as a photographer. Based in the U.S., I specialize in portrait, editorial, behind-the-scenes, and fashion-driven studio photography merging storytelling with stylized, intentional visuals.

In 2015 I began working in Film & Television production. Mostly working on commercials and music videos in Los Angeles, throughout the US, and abroad. Initially with the Assistant Director & Production Departments working my way up into Art Department and working directly under experienced Production Designers, Art Directors, and Set Decorators. I have also assisted and worked with various photographers over the years. Throughout those experiences I gained invaluable knowledge on how to create beautifully lit, styled, and composed images.

My creative voice is shaped by the bold aesthetics of filmmakers like Nicolas Winding Refn and Quentin Tarantino, DoP’s Natasha Braier and Roger Deakins, and the immersive, light-focused installations of James Turrell. These influences show up in my use of mood, styling, color, and space whether I’m working in natural light or crafting controlled, dramatic studio environments. I am an avid fan of the arts and attempt to showcase that appreciation in my own work.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked with and photographed a handful of musicians, clothing brands, jewelry designers, and other artists helping bring their creative visions to life through thoughtful, visually compelling imagery. I’ve also had the opportunity to assist on photo projects across Central and South America, gaining a unique perspective and deepening my understanding of authentic storytelling.

Many of my own shoots are self-produced. I often take on the roles of photographer, lighting designer, and stylist—to fully shape the narrative and visual identity of each project. Recently, I’ve leaned more into fashion and studio photography, drawn to the control and creative freedom of building intentional, stylized environments.

Whether I’m capturing raw portraits, conceptual editorials, or behind-the-scenes moments, my goal is to create imagery that feels cinematic, immersive, and real. Available for commissions, collaborations, and creative projects across the U.S. and internationally.
