Artist
​
Lawrence is a self-taught artist and oil painting coach whom I met in 2024 during a class where he was leading the session. His recent exhibition, A Dream of Time, was the result of five years of steady, introspective work.
“I’ve always wanted to explore my capabilities,” Lawrence told me. “And find what is the best way to articulate my story. When a story is spoken with authentic articulation, people are naturally drawn to it... we have always been a naturally storytelling species.”
These portraits are about the intersection of discipline and imagination — and what it means to build a language through paint.
Ioannis Panagiotidis
Musician
​
Ioannis is a London-based musician currently working on his first album — a fusion of Greek traditional sound and modern sensibility.
“Translating thoughts and feelings into sound has always been a liberating experience for me,” he says. “It’s like freeing a part of myself that can’t be expressed in any other possible way.”
Our session explored both quiet and intensity — an attempt to translate, visually, the same mix of heritage and experimentation present in his music.
Dalma Berger
Parfume maker
​
Dalma is the founder of The Armor Fragrances, an artisan perfume line built around memory, emotion, and invisible narrative. Photographing her was a layered, sensory experience.
“My relationship with scents began in childhood,” she shared, “shaped by vivid memories of the city and the women in my family, who never left home without wearing a fragrance that reflected their essence...”
From keeping a scent journal as a child to creating a line of expressive, poetic fragrances, her story is about nostalgia transformed into form. These portraits are a quiet celebration of that path — a study in softness, memory, and self-invention.
