I recently finished work on a pretty big project. Skizzo Skillz & Keo released their first album together. It’s called “Skeo” and it draws heavily on a joyful 80’s sound that influenced their taste while growing up. The album is exclusively available in Lidl stores, and its launch included a close partnership with the retail chain.

The whole deal is pretty exciting to me, not only because I handled the whole campaign, but also because it includes the first TV ad which I shot.

A part of the photos I took were featured on the company’s homepage, as well as on product pages.

Soon after the official laungh, Skizzo & Keo took to the road and traveled nationwide to promote their album in Lidl Stores. They signed albums, interacted with fans and even held a surprise acoustic concert in one of the stores.

Also, here are a few shots of roll-ups and billboards featuring the two artists.

Finally, take a look at the official TV ad for this campaign. It features clips from the video for “O Singura Noapte”, also shot and directed by yours truly.

Currently I’m running around Cyprus for an interesting project that I’ll be able to share with you in about a month…

Until then, I’ll let you enjoy a few Instagramish shots from here:

I recently finished work on Mirela Stelea’s newest collection. It’s called “The New Little Black Dress”, and it’s absolutely spectacular.

The photo below is the first official campaign photo, followed by the event photo. You can also have a look at the video I made especially for the occasion. See you at the official launch!

This photo was taken at my studio a little while back. A photo from the same shoot as featured on the TvSatelit cover over here.

Sorina Giurescu did the hair & make-up.

The photos below appeared in Viva! and they feature the stunning Lavinia Petrea alongside an amazing Citroen 2CW. For this shoot, we traveled to that same deserted road down south that’s so special to me and that I’ve used a few times before.

Hair: Cristi Stoica

Make-up: Simina Bradeanu

Styling: Ana Andrei

This photo of Alina Puscas appeared on the cover of TV Satelit. It was taken at the seaside and is part of the same photo shoot as this one. [link coperta tvmania]

Sorina Giurescu did the hair & make-up.

A few of the photos I took of Connect-R were featured in InStyle. The interview comes shortly after a rather spectacular change of both look and haircut. Connect-R discusses his style, his personality, but also the way they interact; you can read more below or in the magazine.

I’m happy to announce I’ll be in Cologne between the 18th and 23d of September at Photokina 2012. I’ll be there representing Dynaphos Romania.

Photokina is the most prominent photo event of the year in Europe. It brings together both fans and experts; it’s also the perfect opportunity to get up to date on the latest trends and innovations in the field. The schedule includes congresses, workshops, symposiums, photo exhibitions and a lot of other special events.

In 2010, Photokina was visited by 1251 exhibitors from 45 countries, along with about 180 000 visitors and 6300 journalists.

I’ll be in Hall 9, at Stand A-44. See you there!

I took this photo of Razvan, Dani and Roxana for the cover of TvMania’s 27th issue.

Sorina Giurescu was in charge of the make-up and hairstyling.

The photos below appeared in Viva! as part of an interview with Sore and Rapha. The shoot happened in Vama Veche.

The interview explores their relationship and the way they got together. You can read it over here.

Ana Andrei was in charge of the styling.
