from photography perspective

I’ve been involved with photography for many years. in many fields of photography, my interaction with the subjects is limited to before, during the shoot, and delivery of the photographic products. but with commercial photography the need is greater to make sure that the photos meet the requirements for the purpose for which they have been taken. usually the client has a clear idea of what they want and can communicate it to the photographer.

one area of photography where you have a lot of misconceptions is modeling photography. that’s the main reason why I created this blog: to help aspiring models get a clear understanding of how modeling works. if you’re an aspiring model, maybe you’ve been told by friends that you should model. with the newfound passion, you want to build a portfolio, you want to walk, and already see your name in lights…a little perspective about the modeling industry can help you understand how the fashion industry operates, what types of modeling careers are available and what the requirements are to become a model. I came to photography from a background of designing clothes. from that vantage point I have a full understanding of photography and fashion. this blog will help you get a better understanding of modeling so that before you sink hundreds of dollars into building a portfolio you will ask yourself first: do I have what it takes to be a model? as a photographer, I can give you the advice that you need to get started and provide you the services to attain your goals in your modeling endeavors.

this blog is not simply about modeling but all aspects of photography. so you will find up-to-date info about many of the fields of photography that I cover: acting headshots, portrait, fashion and product photography. I will also devote a section to post production: photoshop, airbrushing, special effects and printing of comp cards etc…
