I had the opportunity to create a series of images for Ramirez; a Portuguese canned goods company with 173 years of history. The brief aligned perfectly with my vision, using bold colors and the kind of lighting that resembles the Portuguese sun: warm, direct and unashamed. This series lets the light do the heavy lifting, illuminating not just tins and labels, but something older: a people's relationship with the sea, the land, and the table.
