Directed by: Adrián Egea

I shot this beauty commercial for Dove Whole Body Den with director Adrián Egea at Igloo Films, and we kept things pretty stripped back in Barcelona. The brief was texture and skin detail without the usual glossy veneer, so we leaned into practical lighting and close work to show the product doing its job rather than just looking pretty. The challenge was holding detail in both shadows and highlights on skin without it feeling clinical, which meant careful control on set and discipline in the grade. Adrián had a clear vision for intimacy over spectacle, and that shaped how we approached every frame. It's the kind of job where the gear serves the story, not the other way around.
