THE FASTEST FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER IN THE WORLD!

LAST YEAR WHEN I WAS ASKED TO BE THE PHOTOGRAPHER ON

THE SECOND SEASON OF AMERICAN BEAUTY STAR,

I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS GETTING MYSELF INTO 🙂

BUT I FOUND OUT THAT ALL THOSE YEARS OF HARDCORE MARTIAL ART TRAINING FINALLY PAID OFF!

AND I CAN EASILY CLAIM THE TITLE OF THE FASTEST FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER IN THE WORLD

THAT  CREATED NEARLY 500 HIGH END FASHION BEAUTY EDITORIAL MAGAZINE COVER SHOTS ON LIVE TELEVISION WAS A CHALLENGE OF A LIFETIME! UNDER ONE MINUTE PER COVER SHOT

AND IF YOU THINK THAT’S NOT EVEN POSSIBLE! THINK AGAIN! 45 SHOTS OF 15 MODELS IN LESS THAN

45 MINUTES, FULLY EDITED, CROPPED AND FORMATTED TO GO ON THE TV SCREEN IN FRONT OF THE TOUGHEST JUDGES FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO SEE!

TALKING ABOUT PRESSURE…:-) ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY’D ALREADY TOLD ME THE LAST

PHOTOGRAPHER NEEDED TWO FULL DAYS TO DELIVER WHAT THEY EXPECTED ME TO DELIVER

UNDER 45 MINUTES!

THAT’S WHEN I DECIDED TO CREATE A WORK FLOW SYSTEM THAT HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE,

AND TRAINED MY ENTIRE CREW AND STAFF OF EDITORS AND  ASSISTANTS IN LESS THAN A WEEK TO DO JUST THAT.

NOT ONLY I WAS ABLE TO BEAT THE DEADLINE EVERY SINGLE DAY FOR 12 DAYS IN A ROW AND

SAVE THE PRODUCTION COMPANY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, BUT I WAS TOLD THAT I HAVE DELIVER IMAGES MUCH MORE SUPERIOR TO THE FIRST SEASON, ACCORDING TO ALL THE PRODUCERS AND THE CREW

HERE ARE JUST A FEW SAMPLES FROM 500+ COVER SHOTS

FASHION CATALOG PHOTOGRAPHY

INTRODUCING CELEBRITY FASHION DESIGNER:

GARO HZOR

Specialized in high end, hand made custom fitted dresses for Hollywood Celebrities, red carpet events,  the rich and famous Hollywood celebrities such as Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, the Kardashians and more…

 

When it comes to Catalog photography for a high end fashion designer , a clothing brand or just any product photography 

a seasoned catalog photographer is able to create variety of looks and poses like the images above by pre planning everything from A-Z.   Art direction, location, lighting ideas, composition and even post production plans all done in advance to ensure a perfect result each and every time 

Not to forget that choosing a great set of models is as crucial in creating a fantastic high fashion catalog photography and look books

A great catalogue shoot like this is the result of a great collaboration between a

Professional photographer , a talented fashion designer, a great model and a wonderful hair and make up artist! Next time you plan to shoot a high fashion catalog or any type of

commercial product catalog, feel free to reach out to our team

It was like a fairy tale! Before coming across Shaun Alexander Photography, I had contacted two other photographers in the Los Angeles area with excellent reputations and reviews. But we just didn’t “click”. After many attempts at explaining what I was looking for I was not confident that either of these established photographers would be able to provide me with the results I was after.
Then I called Shaun. My world changed, in a very good way! Immediately, he was warm, understanding and practically finished my sentences for me! I knew instantly this would prove the old adage that the third time’s a charm! Indeed, it was!

Having professionally modeled in my twenties and thirties, I had been prompted to give it a try decades later as a Senior model. Many agencies in both America and Europe now have a thriving industry and niche for older models. Since I frequently travel between both continents, I decided to give it a shot.

Naturally, I was not only reluctant, but terrified to step in front of a camera again after so much time had passed. But Shaun allayed all my fears, instilled me with confidence and made me feel beautiful in front of the camera! Working with Shaun was a joy in every way. He took a hands on approach in all aspects: hair and makeup, wardrobe, whether a shot should be interior or exterior and made sure I looked my very best at all times.
He has a lovely personality that makes a model want to do her best. There is a symbiotic relationship between model and photographer. You should both have one shared goal, to look fantastic! Shaun clearly understands this. My photo shoot with Shaun was by far, one of my favorite experiences ever working with a professional photographer. Once the shoot ended he spent a lot of valuable time going over the proofs to select the perfect shots to have printed. The end results were as beautiful as the experience itself! The only problem I ran into was narrowing down my choices because the pictures were all so wonderful! My composite cards are gorgeous and I will be proud to present them to any agency, any where in the world!

Not only do I recommend Shaun, I can’t wait to work with him and his team again!
His artistry is unparalleled and he has an innate ability to find the oomph factor in a person and capture it on film for all the world to appreciate. Few artists can make this claim! Shaun is the consummate artist without the super ego that usually goes along with it. An unbelievable find in the world of fashion photography! Wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else.
