A career in fashion photography


We see them everywhere, in magazines, in the manner of execution, the advertisements on television. Are thin women strutting their stuff or extra ordinary beauty with sexy eyes flashing their pearly whites while wearing the latest new trends in design. We're talking about fashion models of today, yesterday and tomorrow. We are everywhere, but brings them to us? His images are captured with care and precision, patience and that special look for style, color and lighting composition. I'm talking about fashion photographers.

In fashion circles, famous names like Mario Testino (easily one of the best names out there) and Eva Mueller (photographer for the fashion magazine Allure) are also sought, if not most men and women leave their way into our consciousness.

High wages and glamorous lifestyle nobbing cooking with the rich and famous might be the dream of many young photographer, but it is not easy to get to the stairs of the houses of known gold and fashion magazines. One for each photographer with talent, hundreds are left breathless on the sidewalk, only dreaming of the time the photo will be chosen.

Here are some tips for novice and dreamer of dreams to start in fashion photography. The study of matter. You can never learn enough. Read and look at any fashion magazine you can get your hands on. There are great books on fashion and fashion photography available. Amazon.com has a treasure available.
You need one or two good cameras, a tripod and a lighting system. Always make sure you have plenty of film and batteries available. And the SLR digital cameras to take photos together, so be sure to seek the best for your area.

At present their work, hoping to give you a chance to have a portfolio in hand, in case the editor of fashion magazine wants to see samples of their work. I assure you that if you believe that work is going to be a fact.
The images are sharp, bright of a 4X5 "shows the transparency of its work to the best. If you have had a publication, whether it was a small neighborhood paper / card or the existence of a tear sheet, literally (a sheet and started the magazine) works well. If the hand is a high quality 8 X 10 "is also acceptable. You want to make sure you have a minimum of 20 images in your portfolio and, preferably, in different styles. Want to show your experience in whole body or partial body parts.

Remember that includes fashion jewelry and accessories. Sometimes, a watch by a famous manufacturer of thin wrist with a beautiful woman is a good service out of fashion. If you are applying for the job, be prepared to leave your portfolio behind for an extended period of time, sometimes even a couple of weeks. I advise you to make copies and have several on hand. This is useful when you show your work to many different people for consideration by the work of fashion.

In the era of modern technology, it is good to show his talent as a fashion photographer online as well. Create a Web site, send your photos to contests. Subjecting them to an online fashion mall. This helps to get your work seen and people can see what kind of work you actually do and can do for them.
