ABOUT US
ENVY Creatives began as a fashion photography studio and evolved into a brand-led content studio as the needs of our clients grew.
Working across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and founder-led brands, we saw that strong visuals alone weren’t enough. What brands needed was direction — clarity around how they show up, how their work is seen, and how their imagery connects across platforms.
Today, ENVY operates at the intersection of creative direction and production. Our background in editorial photography informs how we approach every project: with restraint, intention, and a focus on long-term brand presence rather than trend-driven output.
Based in Manila and working with clients locally and internationally, we collaborate with teams who value consistency, credibility, and thoughtful execution.
ENVY Creatives was founded by Nina Eilisa Villanueva, a fashion and commercial photographer with experience across local and international markets.
After starting out self-taught, Nina pursued formal training in Fashion Photography at Istituto Marangoni in Milan, refining an editorial approach shaped by discipline, visual culture, and brand storytelling. Her work has appeared in publications such as Vogue Philippines, MEGA Magazine, Metro Society, L’Officiel Arabia, and Esquire Middle East, and she has produced campaigns for both emerging and established brands.
In 2017, she founded ENVY to build a studio grounded in intention and creative leadership — one that prioritizes clarity and credibility over volume. She now leads ENVY alongside her husband, Diego Harmuch, and their team, working with clients in the Philippines and beyond.
HOW WE OPERATE
ENVY Creatives works through a structured, direction-led approach designed to support both focus and scale.
Alongside custom campaigns and brand shoots, we offer scheduled Content Solutions shoot days — allowing us to work with more clients each month while maintaining consistency, quality, and creative oversight. This system helps brands access high-level production without the friction of fully bespoke timelines for every project.
We plan our production calendar carefully to avoid overextension, ensuring every client receives the same level of attention, direction, and execution. Whether a project is custom or part of a scheduled shoot day, our standards remain the same.
Clarity, preparation, and thoughtful pacing are central to how we work.
