How to Fill Your Portfolio with a Variety of Brands and Models in Just a Few Hours
Are you an aspiring product photographer struggling to build your portfolio with a diverse range of brands and models? At content day you can fill your portfolio with a variety of brands and models in just a few hours. All you need to bring is your camera, and we will provide the rest – the props, styling, and of course, the brands and models. You will also learn how to take flat lays and product shots that sell. So, gear up and let’s get started!
Firstly, let’s talk about models. You may have already heard about model calls, where photographers collaborate with models to create a win-win situation. You get to build your portfolio while the models get professional photos for their own portfolios. However, finding models for a product photography shoot can be challenging. That’s where we come in – we will bring models with diverse looks and styles to our studio.
When it comes to products, we will provide a range of items to photograph, from clothing to jewelry and more. You will learn how to take flat lays that sell. A flat lay is a type of shot where the items are arranged flat on a surface and photographed from above. This type of shot is popular in e-commerce photography. Some tips for taking flat lays include using natural light, choosing a simple background, and styling the items in an aesthetically pleasing way. You will also have access to various props and backdrops to enhance the product shots.
Next, we will also break into pairs and shuffle around the studio for product shots. This is a chance for you to collaborate with other photographers and learn from each other. You will also get to practice shooting products in different angles and lighting. This will not only add to your portfolio but also boost your confidence in your skills.
Moreover, if you are looking for a niche to specialize in, product photography offers a wide range of options. For instance, you could focus on food and beverage photography or jewelry photography. The possibilities are endless, and with a diverse range of brands and models in your portfolio, you can market your services to various industries.
Building your portfolio as a product photographer takes time and effort. However, with our help, you can fill your portfolio with a diverse range of brands and models in just a few hours.
