Fashion Photography

By Sowoso Damianoso


Are you someone that likes to hob-nob with celebs? Do you need to take their pictures as well? If the above is true then fashion photography can be your career trail.

As a fashion cameraman, you'll be taking photos of models and stars and portraits. To attain success in this type of photography, you've got to have a good sense of promoting. You'll be able to sell a pose, a face and even a feeling. This doesn't suggest that you should not want to be a fashion cameraman. It suggests that you'll need to work harder to get your work broadcast, recognized and accepted. It is generally a smart idea to begin by getting some exposure thru working in tiny agencies and work with less familiar models and then slowly make a portfolio that will always be improved. You've got to make a name of being an expert and creative shooter and this is among the vital things. As a fashion cameraman, you should know about studio lighting, design setting and shooting in a managed environment.

This wishes you to be aware as a person and well informed as a snapper. Working with models can be rather a difficult job and the most critical part lies in specifying the mood for your models. You can beat this deterrent through effective communication and patience. So in brief, fashion photography isn't just about photography but also wants you to be in a position to interact and communicate with folks. The basic skills of photography are all the same.

You've got to have information and might be able to understand camera operation, composition, lighting, darkroom procedures, and the properties of different forms of camera films. As a cameraman, you will need to use different mixes of cameras, films, lenses, filters, and lighting to finish up in an effect, and a last picture.

Differing sorts of photography like nature, wildlife, marriage, portrait and fashion have their categorical necessities and experience of the subject. The position of the camera is critical for shooting a good picture. If you are looking to shoot a full body photograph of any model, then the shot must be taken from a comparatively low camera height, which shouldn't surpass the photographer's hips. The ever popular head shot or head and shoulders portrait needs to be taken from a little above the eyelevel of the model. This height will bring out well revealed facial features but if you do not maintain the right level then your image will have a deformed view. This level will make your subject appear taller and dominant.
