Why I am an Alchemist

This month I am diving into the Power of Archetypes, which is at the very core of my Art and one of my strongest archetypes is, without a doubt : The Alchemist.
The Alchemist archetype is a powerful force of transformation, turning base elements into gold—both literally and metaphorically. At its core, the Alchemist is a master of transmutation, working with unseen forces to refine, elevate, and bring forth something rare and extraordinary.

How is my work pure Alchemy ?
My entire artistic path embodies Alchemy in its purest form. I take raw elements—my clients’ essence, emotions, personal history, and soul archetypes—and transmute them into visual Alchemy gold. Here’s how:
• I transform people from their everyday selves into their highest, most archetypal expression
• My lens is a crucible—a sacred tool of transmutation, where the ordinary becomes Divine.
• All my sessions are a Ritual—they involve styling, atmosphere, emotion, and deep intuitive guidance to awaken something dormant within my clients.
• I guide people through their own alchemy—helping them shift from shadow aspects (doubt, disconnection, hiding) into their radiant, empowered essence.
• My art is a Philosopher’s Stone—each portrait is a living portal of transformation, holding the vibration of the subject’s Highest self.
• Even my creative process is al-chemical — I draw from mystical, archetypal energies and shape them into something tangible, whether through transformative art styling and studio photography, cinematic storytelling videos and images, painting, collage or future oracle decks.
I am not just capturing transformation — I am activating it. The people I photograph are not only stepping into their highest selves for a moment, but also receiving a key to embodying that version of themselves in LIFE.
