Photoshoots
Photoshoots to promote your wedding business. Are you looking to have a styled photoshoot? A styled shoot with different wedding suppliers to promote your business and product or service.
A styled photoshoot is a photo session by a team of wedding professionals, joining forces to create specific new imagery and refresh their portfolio.
A styled photo shoot obviously has a specific mood, style and feel and this needs to be agreed before the shoot takes place.
The team is usually composed of different wedding suppliers, depending of course on the size of the project. All creative branches can be part of this: photographers, videographers, wedding planners, floral designers, musicians and light specialists, stylists, clothing and shoes brands, hair and make-up artists, jewelry vendors, wedding cake designers, calligraphists, etc.
During the initial creative phase, it is very useful to do a brainstorming meet-up to evaluate all the different possibilities.
This requires a coordinator, which is usually represented by the wedding planner / agency or photographer or person wanting a portfolio of images.
Apart from deciding on a theme and location, planning a styled photo shoot involves choosing the color palette that will be used. You need to know some color theory to decide which color contrast you want to use.
The ultimate purpose of a styled photo shoot, however, is to get creative quality material that you can publish on your site without having to worry about privacy rights that exist with real wedding clients.
Being published in one or more prestigious wedding blogs allows you to gain more visibility and prestige in your audience’s eye. It also allows you to set up a stronger marketing campaign through social media.
An established photographer uses the styled photo shoots to consolidate their reputation and experiment with personal projects.
Introduce a new specific geographical area in your portfolio, in which you want to offer your services.
Attracting a specific niche of customers. For example – relaxed boho vibes!
