How to Find the Best Fashion Photographers

HIGH FASHION MIXED WITH HIGH LEVEL OF ART DIRECTION IN POST

Finding the best Fashion Photographers for a photo shoot can be a demanding task especially after ease of access to digital photography and inexpensive DSLR cameras,  many amateur photographers claim to be professional photographers, when truth of the matter is that 99% of them never had a proper education or training.

 

NOT ALL PHOTOGRAPHERS ARE CREATED EQUALLY!

 

Hopefully this article will help you hire the best Fashion Photographer for your next project. Things to consider are:

 

1-BODY OF WORK AND PORTFOLIO

Make sure you carefully review their portfolio , looking for creativity, style, versatility, technical delivery and lighting

 

2-EXPERIENCE

Best photographers in the world are the most seasoned ones…trust me on that, Experience matters!

 

3-ART DIRECTION AND VISION

The photographer’s style and art direction is what sets him and eventually his clients apart from the rest

 

4-DELIVERING AND EXECUTING THE CLIENT’S VISION

Experienced photographers have the ability to combine their client’s vision and their own artistic style to create a perfect result each and every time

 

5-HAVING A PERFECT TEAM IS VERY IMPORTANT

Making sure that your photographer has access to a team of hair, Makeup, and fashion stylists, post production and retouching experts that he or she trusts

 

6-IMAGE QUALITY

Must meet the highest standards, no matter shooting for magazine covers or giant billboards, delivering the best possible images are what any top photographer must be able to provide.

 

7-PROFESSIONAL EQUIPMENT AND STUDIO IS A MUST

Shooting on location or studio requires a certain amount of professional gears that will enhance and ensure the best results, lacking those equipment can effect the final look and they are important

 

8-PERSONALITY

Manners and communication skills to help directing his team and the models as well as working with clients can be crucial, make sure you take your time and talk to your selected photographers prior to hiring them.

 

9-FLEXIBILITY AND CREATIVITY

Since each photography project can have it’s own challenges, being able to cope with those constantly changing issues require a flexible and creative person

finding a photographer with those qualities can make a a big difference in the overall experience of your project

 

10-LAST BUT NOT LEAST, LIGHTING, LIGHTING & LIGHTING

How to find a Professional fashion photographer in Los Angeles

 

WITHOUT A PROPER LIGHTING, NO MATTER HOW BEAUTIFUL THE CLOTHES,  MAKE UP OR THE MODELS…

The final images will not have the same look and impact as the ones that do have the proper lighting techniques. Each style of photography requires certain style of lighting and only a few top photographers in the world can deliver those visually breathtaking images that can help a brand to become instantly famous.

 

Taking beautiful images can be easy, but taking images that can help a company to become internationally famous take much more than just a good photographer, but a top experienced fashion advertising photographer that can deliver images that are universally appealing and recognizable

 

Brands such as Guess, Dior, Armani, Versacci, Cavalli, D&G etc…understand the concept of BRANDING and MARKETING through PHOTOGRAPHY

They spend millions of dollars on their ad campaigns, catalogs, lookbooks, magazine ads etc…not because they like to but because they have to stay competitive and on top pf their game in this ruthless world of FASHION and they only trust a few top fashion photographers in the world to deliver the job.

 

 

Next time you search for someone like that make sure that you pur Shaun Alexander Photography on your selected top photographers list. Shaun is truly a genius of his era with close to three decades of solid experience both in film and digital photography as well as Video production, Music video production, album covers, promotional branding videos, TV commercials and more

New York Advertising Photography and Ad Campaigns

 

NEW YORK ADVERTISING PHOTOGRAPHY AND ADVERTISING PHOTOGRAPHERS

NEW YORK – NY – NYC – lOS ANGELES – LA – LONDON UK

The Guess ad campaign Editorials shot by Shaun Alexander, fashion photographer , ranked the most successful fashion editorial shoot by many fashion experts and magazine editors for 2012 . Shaun conforms lighting to the type of ad, the background, the model’s features, and the product. He gives what the ad needs, resulting to a dramatic, yet high end and glamorous advertisement such as of Guess.

 

Having great taste and creativity, Shaun Alexander gives Guess an ad campaign that captivates the rand’s total look- easygoing, however elegant and expensive. There has never been a cheap-looking Shaun Alexander photo ever, and neither a Guess ad. This shows that the top advertising photographer has not only lived up to adding another item to the legacy of ad portraits for the company of the Marciano brothers. He was able to successfully embody the Guess spirit in his work and at the same time apply his own style into it.

 

In New York advertising photography, the Ad campaigns must consist of a photographer who directs the shoot according to how the product or service should be presented. He lets the model do her job, but makes sure he or she gets it right and makes a pretty picture.

 

Advertising photography demands perfection since its purpose is for the endorsement of a company’s product or service. Cecil ads by Shaun alexander show not only the brand’s youthful side, but the freshness of their hippest products that make trends more buyable and wearable. For Laqua, he again lends his expertise, giving the brand strong, artistic, couture photo ads that sell.

 

If you observe all of his works, it would be clear to see that it is his remarkable lighting that does the magic. He just doesn’t let light fall on any part of the subject. His photos radiate with light in the right places and touches the viewer the first time their eyes get caught with all of it. Shaun’s experience as an advertising photographer has earned him more projects. These include cosmetic campaigns, editorial campaigns and promotions for fashion designers, fashion magazines, advertising companies, fashion editorials, and celebrities.

Photography Lighting workshops by top fashion photographer Shaun Alexander

Fashion photographer Shaun Alexander is now offering photography lighting workshops in La, NYC, and other cities

Fashion photography lighting by fashion editorial photographer Shaun Alexander

No matter how gorgeous the makeup looks, it is never noticed in photos if the lighting is impaired. Once again, this highly regarded photography skill is mentioned, dragging along the name of world famous fashion photographer Shaun Alexander for his spectacular lighting techniques. Color is important, and he has the talent in letting color and light unite, turning pictures into the most smashing portraits you’d ever see.

 

Only the best photographers can capture the beauty of each atmosphere, body, person or object. The secret is lighting, according to Shaun Alexander. He takes amazing photographs like no other. With the mastery of photography lighting, he is able to produce flawless candid shots especially the most memorable momentum at the right timing.

 

Lighting is yet a skill to improve for amateur photographers, but for Shaun Alexander, he has perfectly mastered it. For perfect photography lighting to work, the artist is gifted with an ability to see what would turn images into bestsellers. Where light strikes and does not is similar to considering which part of the subject must be shaded or left alone in sketching. Shaun is quite cautious about his lighting techniques as it is his secret to taking great photographs. He shares this to aspiring photographers throughout the globe.

 

Those who have no idea that it is lighting that gives photography a spark are likely to ogle and admire the colors, the pose, or how the model looks. Yet they fail to see what’s utterly visible at the moment, what exactly makes the picture as immaculate as it appears to be. It is no other than the light that falls on specific angles. Shaun literally gives light through lighting techniques and he also gives enlightenment with his groundbreaking portfolio by showing how lighting can make a difference in a range of photographs that people are destined to see.

 

In every picture, Shaun brings lighting to perfection. It took him places in more than twenty-seven years of experience as it does up today. Just take time to marvel at his portfolio and you’ll discover a separate art in photography that Shaun Alexander is known for- his own.
