Fashion Portfolio Photoshoot #1 – Concepts

So I have been going back and forth all day trying to figure out what steps I need to take in preparing for my first portfolio shoot and determined that I needed a form to keep me on track. So I created this Pre-Production check list. Feel free to use it if you like.

Now back to planning the actual shoot. The plan is to shoot three looks all of which will be simulated fashion advertisements. With that in mind I began to look at various magazines and online references to fashion magazine ads that would inspire me and this is what I’ve found so far:

Look #1

Fendi Ad

FENDI-AD

fendi-ad

fendi-ad #2

This look is obviously focused on presenting handbags. I like both of these images because they integrate the background very well while successfully retaining the focus on the model and the product.

Look #2

2009 Escada Ad

Givency - Ange ou Demnon

This look focuses more on the presentation of fragrances. It portrays an image of elegance, class and sophistication as well as somewhat flirtatious.

Look #3

Bvlgari

Bvlgari

Chanel

Chanel Eyewear

Look #3 presents eyewear. As in look #2 a sens of class, elegance and sophistication is also portrayed in these images.

My biggest obstacle right now is finding a location that will accommodate all three looks. I realize that the simple solution would be to split each shoot up into individual shoots, however, because I am working with a limited budget I am trying to take full advantage of the time I have with my wardrobe stylist. Meaning, she has a three look minimum per shoot and I would like to shoot three different usable portfolio pieces.

That said, I feel that looks 1 & 3 would easily be accomplished in the same location but look #2 will take a little more creativity to pull off. In the next few days I will begin scouting locations trying to find one that will accommodate all three looks. Hopefully, I can find a place with a range of backgrounds. Wish me luck!

If you have any comments, suggestion or questions I would love to hear them.
