Windy Studio Portrait

Fashion portrait

We shot Charlotte's portrait in our studio the other day. Mid way through the shoot she felt the photos weren't turning out quite as she had imagined, and we quickly identified that it was because portraits taken in the studio tend to appear more formal. In order for her to achieve a more organic portrait, we decided to add a subtle breeze from our wind machine, enhancing the liveliness of the image. With one minimal change we were able to dramtically transform the feeling of the image from commercial to organic.

We always encourage our subjects to review the photos in between rounds so that we can make adjustments where necessary. With your on set feedback we are able to make a variety of changes including the crop, softening the lighting, adding contrast or more shadows, changing the shooting orientation, and more.

Laura had her portrait taken on our medium grey background, which complements every skin tone and hair colour. Opposed to white, we recommend people shoot on our grey background when aiming to add more depth and personality to the image. This is because of the fact that the shadows in the background give a subtle realness instead of being completely blown out from the light. We shot this photo loosely and cropped it later to her liking so that her features would appear more visually striking. 

Portfolio Headshots

Patricia is a cheerful young lady who wanted to try her hand at modelling. Being it was her first photoshoot, she had no idea what to expect. Hair and makeup was kept simple to appeal to her natural features. When building up your portfolio, it's good to be shown as a blank canvas so that people can visualize you in their designs.  

Outdoor Portrait

Gather your confidence and book an outdoor session while the weather is still with us! 
Moe wanted an approachable garden green background and we found the perfect spot for that just across the bridge from the studio. The alleyway shades the sun while still emitting a gentle natural glow on the skin (extra golden effects happen when you shoot during or around sunset time!). Don't hesitate to ask us if you have any questions regarding to when and where is ideal for your session.  

Self Styled Fashion Package

Gracia was looking to book a fashion photoshoot for herself to get into modelling. Since she is a university student on a budget, we suggested for her to book a self styled package, where she was able to get a discounted rate by bringing in her own wardrobe as well as doing her own hair and makeup. She did however mention she wanted make up services, so we simply adjusted her package price to suit her needs. She was a very kind and gentle person with such a lovely personality, we wish her only success!

Chloe is an aspiring model/actress who booked our Short Fashion Package aiming to get a couple nice photos for her portfolio. It was her first time shooting in a professional environment, so she was also testing out the whole process to see if it suits her, or if acting is more up her alley. Based on her reference photos, we prepared a low key casual look using a crisp relaxed fit shirt, slim cigarette jeans with a loose hem, paired with cozy peep toe pumps. Whatever path you end up going down, we wish you success Chloe!

Robin was sent to us to get his professional  headshot taken for his company website. We did a loose composition whereby the photo could be cropped in either vertical or horizontal orientation, and be set in colour or in black and white. We kept all of our options open for their graphic design team to take utmost liberty in the final product. If your company has any image specifications such as a particular size or crop, please let us know so we can make sure to get the photo done right. 

Professional Headshot

Uno is a hair stylist specializing in bridal services. Although she's been in need of a headshot for her website for some time now, the being the subject of the camera was intimidating enough to make her procrastinate on finding a photographer. She was camera shy, so we warmed up and narrowed down whether she wants a more characteristic portrait or something more clean and conservative. A quick 20 minutes later, she walked away from a (relatively!) painless experience with 2 headshots she was confident with.
