As a Detroit photographer, I have the opportunity to work models signed with local and national modeling agencies as well as models trying to establish themselves. Regardless of their experience, having a professional model portfolio is key to their success.
I recently worked with a talented group of professionals on a “Dark Space” concept photo shoot.
Model: Nicole Locke
Hair Stylist: Necole Capicchioni
Makeup Artist: Mona Batayeh
Photography: Paul Manoian
The challenge with this particular shoot was the confined space we used as the location. Most of the shots were lit using a single Elinchrom soft box simple due to a lack of space. Even so, with proper positioning, the dark edgy lighting it provided was exactly the look we were going for. With such a simple location and lighting setup, the final result heavily depended on the model to pull off the look and Nicole did a fantastic job! The final images are definitely what we were going for and I can’t wait to work with this team again! I really wish we had the time to shoot a full behind the scenes video like the one we did at Motor City Casino.
If you are looking for a Metro Detroit photographer to provide the creative direction to expand your model portfolio, please contact me online or call 313-883-9500 for free consultation. My professional Detroit photographer experience, including my experience as a fashion photographer and editorial photographer, includes much more than simply providing model head shots, model comp cards and model portfolios. Even so, that experience has allowed to work with some of the most talented individuals in Michigan!
