What does a photo shoot involve?
If you’re considering joining Silver Fox
Management, but you’ve never modelled before you might wonder what a photo
shoot involves.
Thanks to societal changes older models are
in high demand. Here’s what happens on a photo shoot…
Photographers usually work to tight briefs.
A brand’s advertising or marketing department will have prepared the briefing
for what the photos should look like, or convey. When you arrive at a photo
shoot, the photographer will share the brief with you and discuss the pictures
he or she wants, and what you should do.
Most shoots will have hairdresser and
make-up artist. They will have been briefed too and it’s their job to make you
look as good as possible. You need to arrive in time for this work to be done
before the shoot.
The photographer will give you instructions
for how he or she wants you to pose or move. If you find any of it
uncomfortable, do speak up. If someone is uncomfortable, it will show up on
film. The photographer might prepare music to help you relax. Good photographers
are skilled at making people forget they are being photographed.
A photo shoot can take a lot longer than
you might think. The photographer’s job is to get the best possible pictures
that show a brand in its best possible light. This will mean taking lots and
lots of pictures, changing lighting, changing poses and more. It requires
patience on the part of the model.
And that’s it! Another photo shoot done and
dusted.
