What was the highlight of the shoot with Centrepoint?

Centrepoint's team was super professional from the get-go. The shooting atmosphere with the crew and the influencers who were there, was filled with the energy that the campaign truly represents. I appreciated the flexibility of all the parties involved and found it thoughtful to involve the celebrities' ideas while shooting.

What convinced you to work on this campaign?

I'm definitely attracted to work with a big brand name such as Centrepoint, especially since I'm very picky with my choices when it comes to collaborations. I loved the campaign idea and found myself in it. I only hope that it will leave a good impression on the audience.
