Working with models brings an exciting dynamic to our shoots. Not only do they help you convey your messages and stories more effectively, but they also help your viewers relate to your images.

Finding your unique style is one of the most challenging aspects of any art form, and yet it’s essential. A distinct style not only makes your work recognisable but also helps it stand out in a crowded field. When your style becomes identifiable, it can attract clients and brands who seek out your specific look as it’s something they can’t get elsewhere.

When it comes to portraits, there’s a lot to consider. The model, for starters, what kind of look and energy can they bring? How about the wardrobe? What themes does it present? Speaking of wardrobe, the colours! How are they going to work with the backdrop? Then there’s lighting, hair and make-up, studio rentals or outdoor spaces… It’s a lot to think about, but that’s what makes portrait photography so exciting.
