Independent studio for brand, photography direction, and moving image — working quietly with teams who prefer the long shot over the loud slogan.
We work in black-and-white because colour is a decision we would rather make later. Everything else is about restraint: less talk, slower edits, a longer look.
A 90-second house film for an Oslo architecture practice.
A 148-page printed volume of studio essays and photography.
Wordmark, packaging and window graphics for a Paris patisserie.
A year-long portrait series with independent makers across Europe.
A reading-first archive site for a Danish literary foundation.
A six-part anthology of single-shot rooms, shot on 16mm.
Halflight is Ana Moreau and Tom Iverson, working out of a second-floor room in Lisbon since 2018. We keep the studio small on purpose: fewer clients, longer engagements, one project at a time. Most of what we do is looking — the deciding comes later.
Halflight read the brief twice, then went quiet for a month. What came back was clearer than anything we had asked for. It's the rare studio that can hold a pause.
We take on four engagements a year. Brief us with as much silence as you can spare.
