For the launch of PAMMYS’ new models, we created a social-first campaign - shaped by the bright volcanic landscapes of Milos, clear blue skies, soft pastel tones and a playful, slightly surreal fashion mood.
Rather than leaning into typical beach imagery, the campaign uses Milos as a sculptural high-fashion backdrop. Minimal, product-led scenes put the shoes at the center - highlighted through color, bold poses, graphic movement and simple visual ideas designed to feel different.
The project was shot in close collaboration with director Omid Aghdami, a longtime friend and creative partner. Omid led the photography and directed the main commercial, while I mainly supported the film through cinematography and co-direction on some scenes. In parallel, I was fully responsible for the social content - from creative direction, directing and cinematography to edit, grading, sound and final delivery.
Content Role:
Creative direction, directing, cinematography, edit, grading, music selection, sfx.
Main Commercial Role:
Mainly cinematography & co-direction for selected scenes.
PAISLEY Bespoke tailors outstanding outfits - ones that fit only you. And this is exactly the message the PAISLEY Summer 2025 campaign conveys.
To express this idea, the campaign shows individual lifestyles and people wearing bespoke outfits inspired by the way they live.
To connect with PAISLEY’s premium audience in Hamburg, specific lifestyle fields were defined: sailing, equestrian culture and the world of classic cars.
Each setting highlights a different facet of individuality and makes clear that with PAISLEY Bespoke, your outfit is not just perfectly tailored - it is tailored to your lifestyle and personality.

SPIRIT is more than just an ordinary energy drink. It represents a new taste, a new plant-based power and a new zeitgeist. It stands for a fresh mindset - embracing innovative and healthier paths. That’s why the brand invites everyone to open their minds to the new. That’s why the claim: OPEN YOUR SPIRIT.
As part of this project, we were responsible for developing distinctive, single-minded video ads for social media - bold, memorable pieces designed to cut through the noise and communicate the brand’s attitude with clarity and impact.
