When approached by a leading ad agency to photograph the lifestyle image library for Abu Dhabi’s Aldar flagship project Yas Island, I jumped at the challenge. Our new concept imagines the viewer as if flying over Yas island, watching all the exciting activities in this new leisure destination. Using strong lighting we created sharp shadows that added an extra visual element to the pictures, almost two pictures in one. With the help of more than 20 production crew members, cranes, bridges, and helicopters, this shoot took us around the world from the US to Italy and the UAE.
