Esthertiek

Esthertiek is the work of Esther, an experienced make-up artist with a calm, detail-driven approach, and yes… my mom. Her work is subtle, refined, and always centred around making people feel comfortable and confident.

For this shoot, I focused on observing rather than directing, letting the natural rhythm of her treatments guide the images. Working with soft light and close framing, I captured hands, textures, and quiet moments. Translating not just what happens in her space, but how it feels to be there.
