Model photography

Modelfotografie · Genres

Portrait and fashion photography centred on a model, aimed at presenting a person, clothing, or accessories.

Model photography includes both fashion shoots (clothing is central) and commercial portrait (person is central). Good communication with the model is essential: show what you want and give compliments. Lighting and styling are at least as important as technique. Many model shoots take place outside the studio for an authentic context.
