How would you describe your practice/business?
I am the Head of Photography at Artclass Vietnam, a creative house based in Ho Chi Minh City. We offer services such as fashion marketing, brand consulting, fashion photography and videography, as well as commercial services. Additionally, we run creative workshops specialising in the fashion industry.
What are the highlight projects in your career so far?
Last year, I had the opportunity to work on an editorial for Atmos titled ‘The Women of Ho Chi Minh City’. The project provided a refreshing perspective on Vietnamese street culture, standing out for its authenticity. Instead of extravagant models or luxurious clothing, it embraced deeply localised elements. The result was both unconventional and fashion-forward, capturing the essence of the culture in a truly unique way.
What are you currently working on?
We are working on more exhibitions and talk shows about fashion branding, celebrating many local artists in Vietnam. Our focus is on raising awareness of the importance of visuals in branding.
