Saint Studio

Before moving into photography, I was a martial artist who taught Shaolin Kung Fu. That background gave me a deep understanding of movement and form, which shaped the way I capture motion and action.

In 2000, I developed Kinetic Silhouette to capture athletes in motion. It came from wanting to show movement beyond a single moment.

By combining stroboscopic, standard flash, and constant light in interchanging sequences, multiple phases of motion are layered into one frame. The result is a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, forming a sculpted silhouette of the subject.

From that work came collaborations with Nike, Puma, Olympics and the World Cup.

I love this woman with every fiber of my being.
I am grateful every day that I get to call her my wife.
I choose you, —every day, over and over again.

Happy Valentine’s Day my love.

First time I shot Missy was with Beyoncé for Honey back in 2000. She must’ve liked the frames—ended up bringing me on for four album covers and a few Adidas campaigns after that.
