Personal Projects

Photo Manipulation | Editorial Design

Overview
These pieces are a collection of personal explorations in Photoshop, combining high-fashion energy with bold, editorial-style edits. Each composition was built using stock photography as a base, then transformed through photo manipulation, lighting effects, and color treatments. The goal was to push my creativity and explore different moods, styles, and storytelling techniques within a visual series.

Creative Process
Each image started with a strong concept, whether that was color-forward, texture-driven, or emotionally expressive. From there, I used Photoshop to play with layering, brush textures, adjustment layers, and custom elements to elevate each one into something completely new. I wanted every piece to feel like a story—editorial and artistic, but also polished and intentional.

Techniques Used

  • Stock photography base

  • Custom lighting effects and gradients

  • High-contrast and color pop treatments

  • Layer masking and blend modes

  • Digital textures and overlays

  • Creative cropping and layout decisions

Final Thoughts
These projects were a creative sandbox for me, a chance to refine my Photoshop skills and flex some artistic muscles without the boundaries of a client brief. They're bold, experimental, and fun to make. This style of work lets me explore the intersection of fashion, digital art, and storytelling, and I can’t wait to keep expanding on it.
