The visual core of Captivate is the photography and technical lighting design of Alexander Vlad.  It is a physical need to craft an alternate reality and to capture the perfect moment.

You diggeth the light?  I diggeth the Captivate.  You are one of the few photographers that has actually incorporated light as a character in your images.  It doesn’t matter if you were lighting a rock or a rockstar, the lighting becomes part of the the image and it becomes a character unto itself and it is amazing.  People should study your images because you do all the “don’ts” and make them supreme.  [Your work] has all the appearances of seeming haphazard and crazy and your usage of mix light should be a class taught all unto itself.  It envelopes the subject and pushes them to the next level… Great work.

Make no mistake, we aim to create photographs that are iconic.  Whether its a billboard, magazine spread, or thumbnail image for an iPad or mobile application, the content must grab the eyes, engage the mind and physically adjust the mood of any observers.

The photography workflow used by Captivate, from light measurement & digital capture to colour management, post & delivery options are all industry standard and legacy proofed to reduce technical problems in the field.  Our devotion to reliable tools combined with advanced techniques enable us to quickly provide high quality imagery for any client, or to further enhance the visual output of our own film & design crew.

With over 265,000 images in our stock archive, we have the experience to compete in fashion, commercial, editorial, weddings, sports and photojournalism.  Our niche is versatility.
