Discovering Your Perfect Match: Tips for

Choosing a Fashion Photographer in NYC

Starting Your Search

In the fashion capital of the world, finding a photographer who aligns perfectly with your brand’s vision isn’t just about luck; it's about strategy and insight. Whether you’re launching a new collection or revamping your brand’s image, the right New York City photographer can make all the difference.

Define Your Style and Vision

The first step is to clearly outline what you envision for your photoshoot. Are you looking for an edgy urban aesthetic or a classic elegance? Understanding your own needs will guide you in selecting a photographer whose artistic style matches your brand’s personality. For example, a luxury jewelry brand might seek a photographer who excels in capturing the intricate details and luxury feel, perhaps through a portfolio featuring close-up shots of exquisite pieces against the city's architectural backdrop.

Scrutinize Portfolios

A photographer’s portfolio is your window into their world. Evaluate their work for diversity, attention to detail, and storytelling ability. Look for photographers who not only have technical prowess but also a clear style that resonates with your brand. Consider a scenario where a fashion startup specializing in streetwear collaborates with a photographer known for their vibrant, street-style portraits, effectively capturing the essence of the brand’s youthful and bold designs.

Leverage Social Media and Networks

Social media platforms offer a live portfolio of a photographer’s most recent work and client interactions. Instagram, particularly, is rich with insights into a photographer's ongoing projects and style evolution. Additionally, tapping into your network for recommendations can lead to discovering photographers who have proven their ability to deliver outstanding results.

The Personal Connection

After narrowing down your choices, meet with potential photographers to discuss your project. This meeting is crucial—you’re looking for someone who isn’t just skilled but also easy to collaborate with. Their enthusiasm for your project and creative ideas can significantly influence the shoot's outcome.

Headshot Photography 101: How to Select the Right Pro

Check out their portfolio

Most photographers have a portfolio of the work they have done in the past. It is essential to go through their past work and confirm if they are worth your time. The portfolio provides a sense of the photographer's style, composition, lighting, and editing skills. It will also give you an idea of the type of headshots NYC they specialize in and whether the headshots align with your needs. For instance, if you are an artist, ensure that the photographer has experience taking headshots that relate to your industry.

Work with a specialist

There are many headshot photographers available. Some focus on specific areas, such as corporate headshots, actor headshots, or fashion headshots. Taking photographs is a form of art, and a professional will prove this to you by demonstrating their expertise in the field.

Not all headshot photographers are created equal, so choose a photographer who specializes in the headshot you need. For a business professional, the photographer must have experience in corporate photography, and not fashion or any other niche. Avoid anyone who tells you they can take headshots from any industry. A truly skilled and experienced headshot photographer ought to have a specific area of expertise.

Read reviews

Regardless of the type of photo you require, it only makes sense to know the level of service that your preferred photographer provides.  You can do this by reading reviews, which will help you understand whether the photographer pays attention to details. Consider the overall sentiment of these reviews, rather than just reading a few selected ones. A large number of positive reviews is a good indication that this photographer is reputable and provides high-quality services. On the other hand, if clients have been dissatisfied with the photographer's work, it is unlikely that you will receive better service.

Communicate

Having a one-on-one conversation with the photographer will give you the opportunity to express your specific requirements and preferences. Communicate the headshot's purpose in advance and let the photographer know the look and feel you want. It is also helpful to bring a few photos that they can use as benchmarks. This can be photos of yourself that you really like, or of other inspiring headshots.

Bottom line

As a rule of thumb, always select a professional photographer who can help you achieve your desired look. The photographer should have the experience and expertise to help you get the perfect shot.

A Commercial Photographer in New York City

A commercial photographer is a person who produces visual images that are sold for use by corporations or other entities. Commercial photographers typically charge a licensing fee for their services. There are many niches that commercial photographers can specialize in. They must understand how the industry works and how to market themselves to gain the most business.

A photographer may choose to work for a large company or as a freelancer. Depending on the type of work they want to do, they may need to purchase or rent a variety of lenses and equipment. This can add up to a sizable investment. However, there are also rental stores that provide cheap and affordable gear for aspiring photographers.

As with any job, commercial photographers nyc are self-motivated and disciplined enough to work through slow periods. They are willing to do their best to earn a profit and meet clients' demands.

For example, they can produce social media posts and create marketing campaigns. Their business can grow in size and scope as they build their portfolio. Having a portfolio that shows off the most dazzling photos is a good way to get started in this field. The time and effort spent editing a photograph depending on the client's needs. Some commercial photographers even offer custom presets to speed up the editing process.

Getting into this field is not always easy. Aside from acquiring the necessary equipment, developing a business plan and finding funding is necessary. You will also need a website and a portfolio to showcase your skills and achievements.

It is essential to ask the right questions when you are talking to a client. These questions will help you determine what they are looking for and what you need to do to meet their requirements. Even the most basic questions can go a long way in establishing a solid rapport.

To succeed in this field, it is necessary to keep your client informed of your progress. Make sure to carry around business cards and contact information and pass it on to anyone who may be involved with the shoot.

When you're ready to start your career as a commercial photographer, make sure to research the industry, identify your niche, and have a business plan in place. Once you have your business plan, it's time to put it to use. Get some practice shooting everything from outdoor shots to lifestyle shots.

The Stress-Free Golf Swing Review The Stress-Free Golf swing was created by Jeff Richmond of ConsistentGolf.com. There is an interesting story to the creation of this swing, because Jeff claims he accidently discovered a secret move that Ben Hogan made in his golf swing. Jeff says he made this discovery on the 5th of March, 2015. Jeff knows the exact date because the discovery was made when he was analyzing 23 great golfers swings for a blog post he was doing, to see how much head movement great golfers have in their swings. The move Jeff found Ben Hogan does is completely contrary to what is traditionally aught in the golf swing, and after discovering it Jeff was keen to try it himself. After trying the move Jeff played a game a week later and hit 14 greens in regulation. Then for the next 8 months Jeff continued to use the move and averaged 12 greens in regulation over that period, up from an average 10 greens in regulation. After another great ball striking game in October Jeff decided to make this move public. He waited so long because he didn’t believe Ben Hogan had a secret that would work for everyone. But Jeff realized that his continued great results could not be denied. So he put his discovery into a detailed PDF and made some videos to show how to do this move, and announced it to his 100,000+ golfers that follow him, for them to try. But he only put it on the market for 7 days, to get a small test group of golfers to test it out and to see if the secret move would work for them as well as it did for Jeff. This took place on the 20th of November, 2015. On the 28th of January, 2016 Jeff emailed the testers for their feedback, and the results astounded Jeff. A small selection of the results from those golfers can be seen here: https://bit.ly/3CidNvG So what is the one secret move? #usa #america #canada #uk #love #newyork #instagram #california #travel #instagood #fashion #photography #australia #india #germany #trump #london #follow #dubai #france #europe #like #art #miami #florida #a #italy #unitedstates #nyc #music (at Hardoi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjPK1VZpAVS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Raekwon x Diadora N9002 x Foot Locker “Community Linx”

Hip-hop legend Raekwon, Diadora and Foot Locker, Inc. have returned to deliver a third “Community Linx” release – the Diadora N9002 Detroit.  

Community Linx is a collaborative franchise series that allows Raekwon to design product capsules built with and for local communities. Today’s Detroit release specifically focuses on the intersection of rap and fashion in the city. This capsule is launched with a local event that provides tools, resources, and a wealth of knowledge to local up-and-coming stylists looking to expand their portfolio.  

The Diadora N9002 Detroit features a black colorway with a pop of gold,  a leather upper, a rubber outsole for increased durability and traction, and Raekwon’s signature on the heel.

The newest drop is available in men's sizes exclusively sold at Foot Locker and Champs Sports beginning today, June 23rd for $120.

The N9002 is an exclusive model for Foot Locker and Champs. If in Detroit, head to Foot Locker Detroit’s 17755 East Eight Mile Road Harper Woods, MI 48225 to purchase.

In support of the Diadora N9002 Detroit release, Raekwon, Diadora and Foot Locker Inc. have selected five up-and-coming Detroit stylists to join an invite-only, three-hour event made up of a styling workshop, Q&A, and portfolio photography session led by two well-known local stylists: Latrice Delgado-Macon and 10xMile. Each participating stylist will style a male model as if they were styling for Raekwon, inspired by one of five events the rapper frequently attends. In addition to valuable industry mentorship and career tools, Foot Locker will be providing the local stylist community with apparel, blanks, and accessories to customize and amplify their pieces. Participants will be able to capture their work with a photographer to build their portfolio.

The Community Linx program kicked off earlier this year with an NYC-inspired Diadora N9002 release paired with an invite-only, four-week beat-making course that brought Raekwon and guest judge, Dave East together with 16 up-and-coming NYC artists through mentorship. The program has also made stops in Philly where local artists participated in an invite-only, four-round performance judged by Raekwon, Bri Steves and Beanie Sigel which resulted in one lucky winner receiving a personal session with Raekwon. Additional Community Linx launches representing Chicago, Los Angeles, and Houston will roll out through the remainder of the summer.

HOW HIP HOP TOOK OVER AND TRANSFORMED FASHION Miss Rosen for Huck Online

“Rap is something you do! Hip hop is something you live!” KRS-One memorably said. Born in the Bronx in 1973, hip hop is not just music, dance, and art; it is a way of being in the world.

“I am a child of hip hop,” says Lee Stuart, Brand Director of Patta, a Dutch streetwear brand, who has curated the new exhibition Street Dreams: How Hip Hop Took Over Fashion. Organised chronologically, the exhibition presents the visual legacy of hip hop through a series of 30 songs and illustrates them with the art, fashion, and photography that defined the era.

“We’re not trying to be historians,” Stuart says. “We are trying to immerse people in these images, show them and make them part of this energy.”

To select the songs, Stuart did what all heads love: he gathered his team and debated the merits of each track. He then chose corresponding work by artists including Nick Cave, Kehinde Wiley, Jamel Shabazz, Janette Beckman, Dana Lixenberg, Hank Willis Thomas, Kambui Olujimi, and Earlie Hudnall.

Too Fast to Live, Too Young to Die: Punk Graphics, 1976-1986 by j- No Via Flickr: Museum of Arts and Design Manhattan NYC April 15, 2019

More than forty years after punk exploded onto the music scenes of New York and London, its impact on the larger culture is still being felt. Born in a period of economic malaise, punk’s energy coalesced into a powerful subcultural phenomenon that transcended music to affect other fields, and especially graphic design. Too Fast to Live, Too Young to Die explores the visual language of punk through hundreds of its most memorable graphics, from the shocking remixes of expropriated images and texts to the DIY zines and flyers that challenged the commercial slickness of the mainstream media.

“Too Fast to Live, Too Young to Die charts punk’s explosive impact on design and examines its complex relationship with art, history, and culture,” said Chris Scoates, MAD’s Nanette L. Laitman Director. “Punk questioned everything, and it’s that spirit of inquiry that is driving MAD forward today, presenting and debating innovative works and ideas with lots of energy, color, and noise.”

John (Johnny Rotten) Lydon, of the Sex Pistols and Public Image Limited (PiL), kicked off a full slate of public programs - beginning with an intimate and fascinating (as well as entertaining) interview and discussion at the press preview, which NYTCAP attended.  

Other events will include an evening on punk photography with David Godlis, Bob Gruen, Marcia Resnick, and Paul Zone; a night of music with DJ Phast Phreddie; a conversation with Sire Records co-founder Seymour Stein, plus programs focused on punk fashion, band history, and more.

My interest in this exhibition goes beyond my own  art and design background, but also as an active participant in the Houston TX punk scene. Leaving my musicianly lack of talent behind, I found refuge as a concert reviewer for the late Public News weekly, and also as a co-producer of KTRU-FM’s cutting edge award-winning and popular punk radio program “The S&M Show”, (”Friday Nights In Hell!”) founded and hosted by the still punk af Marilyn Mock - for 11 years.  

Having a huge collection of punk lps, eps, tapes, demos, and 45s, as well as many posters, fliers, zines, and scores of buttons, this was a must-see show.  Getting to meet and talk with Mr. Lydon was an added incentive..

Originating at Bloomfield Hills, Michigan’s Cranbrook Art Museum, the exhibition has been adapted for its run at MAD to include selections that showcase the visual output of New York City’s punk scene: flyers from the famed East Village punk venue CBGB; concert posters and memorabilia from Blondie, the Ramones, and other artists; early issues of Punk magazine; and more.

“Since its rebellious inception in the 1970s, punk has always exhibited very visual forms of expression,” said Andrew Blauvelt, Director of Cranbrook Art Museum and Curator-at-Large for Design at MAD. “From the dress and hairstyles of its devotees and the onstage theatrics of its musicians to the design of its numerous forms of printed matter, punk’s energy coalesced into a powerful subcultural phenomenon that transcended music to affect other fields such as visual art, fashion, and graphic design.”

Arranged thematically, Too Fast to Live, Too Young to Die examines a variety of visual design strategies, including parody and pastiche, and techniques such as appropriation and collage. Further, it illuminates the influence of genres such as science fiction, horror, and comics on punk and post-punk graphics. The works on view move from the sobriety of a stripped-down, black-and-white minimalism to the expansive color palettes and expressive forms of New Wave graphics.

Legendary graphic designers Malcolm Garrett and Peter Saville, both of whom have work represented in the exhibition, collaborated with MAD to create original promotional materials, including a subway poster campaign, a three-story banner for the Museum’s facade, and merchandise for The Store at MAD. Garrett’s “Too Fast to Live” graphic—featuring bold black type on a metallic silver ground with a square pop of fluorescent orange—recalls his cover art for the Buzzcocks’ 1989 compilation album Product; while Saville’s “Too Young to Die” borrows its typographic treatment and high-contrast black-and-white colorway from his 1980 design for Joy Division’s Closer album cover.

In addition, from April 25 through July 11, MAD will present a global punk cinema series of films from Mexico, Japan, Cameroon, Hungary, and other countries underscoring the variety of contexts in which punk music has galvanized youth movements for rebellion and social change.

During Museum hours, a multimedia presentation, Please Kill Me: Voices from the Archive, will play continuously in the gallery. Narrated by McNeil and McCain and compiled by filmmaker/artist Brendan Toller, the presentation includes vintage interviews from Iggy Pop, Joey and Dee Dee Ramone, Debbie Harry, Jim Carroll, Billy Name, and others, combined with never-before-seen photographs (including many of Nico) and ephemera from Fred W. McDarrah, Adam Ritchie, Danny Fields, Bob Gruen, James Marshall and Gillian McCain, David Godlis, Leni Sinclair, Mike Barich, Natalie Schlossman, Paul Zone, and Tom Hearn.

One of the coolest under-the-radar NYC shows all year, and maybe of all time, 'Taryn Simon: The Color of a Flea’s Eye (The Picture Collection)' is on view through May 15, 2022. The exhibition catalog from @cahiersdart is suitably amazing. It presents a history of the @nyplpicturecollection — a legendary trove of more than 1 million prints, photographs, postcards, posters & images from disused books and periodicals. Since its inception in 1915, the Picture Collection has been a vital resource for writers, historians, artists, filmmakers, fashion designers and advertising agencies. Simon highlights the impulse to organize visual information, and points to the invisible hands behind seemingly neutral systems of image gathering. Each of her photos is made up of an array of images selected from a given subject folder, such as Chiaroscuro, Handshaking, Haircombing, Express Highways, Financial Panics, Israel & Beards and Mustaches. In artfully overlapped compositions, only slices of the individual images are visible, each fragment suggesting its whole. Simon sees this extensive archive of images as the precursor to internet search engines. Such an unlikely futurity in the past is at the core of the Picture Collection. The digital is foreshadowed in the analogue, at the same time that history—its classifications, its contents—seems the stuff of projection. Simon spent years sifting through letters, memos and records that reveal an untold story between the library and artists, media, government and a broader public. These documents also divulge the removal and transfer of photographs from the democratically circulating picture-collection folders to the photography collection in the late 1980s when their marketplace value became apparent. Simon’s selection of photographs from these transfers highlights gender, immigration, race and economy in America alongside the technical development of photography. Produced in direct collaboration with the artist, the book contains 57 individually hand tipped-in plates, numerous gatefolds and a variety of unique papers, as well as essays by @joshuachuang @nypl & @timgriffinnyc More via linkinbio. #tarynsimon #colorofafleaseye https://www.instagram.com/p/CYheo7mp3FR/?utm_medium=tumblr
