the model-photographer relationship
November / 2011
Earning the model’s trust and creating a comfortable atmosphere is essential to making quality artistic images. The best images are ones that are either dynamic in form, capture a mood, or evoke emotions in the viewer.
A photographer can’t achieve this if there is no connection with the model. Creating intimate images of people is a collaborative process built on trust established through a positive model-photographer rapport.
Look Studios fine-art nude photography workshops feature a different model each day. In our workshops, we teach how to provide a model with direction in a respectful, professional, and constructive manner. The photos above are of Gabrielle and Jena, 2 models from the March fine-art nude photo workshops.

why models need professional photographers
June / 2011
Models need to invest in working with professional photographers to build a quality modeling portfolio. The modeling portfolio is the gateway to agencies and potential clients. However, the taking of the photo is only first half of the battle, the real magic occurs in the post processing. In the post production we smooth out the skin and add punch to the image. Images in a modeling portfolio have to have impact.
Creating quality images is an elaborate process beginning with professional hair and makeup, time in the studio or on location, and retouching in post production. In these examples we show base unedited photo followed by the retouched image.
