The National Investment Agency for Cyprus commissioned me to create a new film location photo database, to be launched alongside a video rebrand of their tourism offerings for the Dubai Expo 2020.

While film location imagery often uses ultra-wide angle lenses and 360-degree techniques, my background as a film director led me to a different approach. I opted for a medium to wide angle lens range, aiming to keep the visuals as close to naked eye as possible. This minimised distortion and created a more immersive and authentic visual journey.

This strategy allowed me to switch to an editorial shooting style between locations, capturing lifestyle moments and local excellence, resulting in several photo essays in addition to the core film location library.
