Vasilisa Ganakova is a freelance photographer and art director based in Paris.
Her approach to photography can be described as somewhat “constructivist”. She constantly looks for new combinations of graphic shapes, colors and lines in different scenes; using paper and other materials to build still life compositions.
As an art director, Vasilisa works mostly in image production for luxury, fashion & beauty clients, always seeking to find original and visually captivating solutions to a client brief, balancing between the brand’s established identity and current social & campaign trends.
