About
Renata's dynamic background from art history to production logistics means creating gorgeous imagery from plans that feel effortless -- and look iconic.
If you could see inside her skull, Renata's left and right brain work in harmony for every creative project and pursuit, wrinkled and ridged by her many lives.
If you could see inside her ribs, her heart is full of her family, Chicago, New Orleans, and Italy. It pumps for art of all kinds -- especially food, fashion, television, and books.
Approach
A people-centered, multi-passionate approach rooted in taste, expertise, and instinct. A generalist who specializes in all things people, and the embodiment of "preparation meets opportunity"
Renata's versatility comes from a studied approach to every project: the lighting, the space, where the photos will live, how they should feel, how a person literally and figuratively moves, the atmosphere's affect on the moment.
Every photoshoot begins long before the first frame. Meticulous planning leads to freedom on the day, allowing for the necessary adaptability it takes to work with live subjects.
Empathy; meet execution.
