How long is a photo shoot?
It depends on the number of looks and the project/concept we have to shoot. It can last from 90 minutes hours to 3.5 hours.
I have never been photographed before, is that a problem?
Not at all. It is my job to capture people whether they are newbies or professional models.
How many looks do I bring?
Bring
3-5 different looks for a 1h30 shooting time, so we can choose the most
suitable ones and don't forget to accessorize each look (with hat, bag,
shoes, belt, scarf etc). You should bring the clothes that you like the
most and accordingly to the style you want to be shot in (casual,
sporty, sexy, executive, classy or chic).
Get
your inspiration from fashion magazines or on different website
portfolios. It's always best that you arrive at the photo shoot with
your visual ideas (tear sheets from magazines) so you can tell me what
kind of pictures you want.
What else should I bring?
* make-up & hair products (iron, fixative)
* shoes (casual shoes, sandals)
* underwear (matching bras)
* accessories (earings, necklaces, sunglasses, hats, handbags, scarf, watch)
* bottle of water
Is there a changing room?
Yes, you will have a closed room to put your clothing and to change outfits.
When will I get my pictures?
I will send you all the non-edited pictures on a CD the week after the shooting.
Do I have to pay for my pictures?
No, unlike some photographers, I will give you all your unedtied pictures FREE of charge on a CD. The format is JPG.
WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW?
Copyrights
The rights of a photograph always belong to the photographer
who shot it, even if your face is in the picture and even if you paid
for the photo shoot. If you want to own all the rights of the
photographs, you have to buy the rights separately.
Why should I sign a model release?
A
model release is a document that stipulates the terms under which one
party may use pictures taken of another party. It lists the permitted
and non-permitted uses. A model release can say whatever you want it to
say, and it can cover whatever period of time both parties agree to. In
other words, a model release protects both sides and determines who can
use the photos and what they can be used for.
Do you shoot in color or black and white?
I shoot in color and then we can transfer them in black and white after.
