Visual Storyteller.

​​

Nygel is more than just a photographer—he’s a visual storyteller. With a background in Photojournalism and a specialty in lighting, food and product photography, his work blends technical mastery with creative flair. He’s had his work published too—snapping shots that don’t just fill space, they steal the spotlight.​

 

He honed his craft over 15 years aboard luxury cruise ships, specializing in portraits, weddings, and group photography, capturing memories from all corners of the world. When the pandemic brought him back home, he seamlessly transitioned into high-end photo editing for U.S.-based clients, proving his versatility behind the scenes as well.​

 

Today, Nygel continues to pour his passion into every frame, committed to telling real, heartfelt stories through compelling imagery. Whether he's behind the camera or at the editing desk, he ensures each photo reflects the soul of the moment.

✈️ Design Strategist

 

Karen’s love for travel and food naturally led her to photography, where capturing picturesque landscapes, vibrant cultures, and architectural marvels became second nature. Of all her favorite subjects, skyscrapers and cityscapes top the list — sparked by her years in the architecture since 2007.

 

Relentless behind the camera and on the drawing board, she brings structure, balance, and intentionality to every frame and every layout she conceptualizes. Her exposure from working abroad has broadened her creative palette, influencing her approach to storytelling through visuals — always crisp, compelling, and on-brand.

 

At Illume, Karen is the go-to girl for all things design and layout. With her sharp eye and knack for spotting what pops, she brings every project to life with style and purpose. Her mantra? “The eye is in the detail” — and she totally means it. Whether it’s a sleek layout or a scroll-stopping visual, she makes sure everything looks amazing and hits the mark for every client.
