Research

Research

Fashion photography can be done in many different ways, either in a studio or on location. It focuses on many different things including the make up, clothes, shoes and accessories. By researching I have found lots of different photographic techniques and styles with all the results varying.


Catalogue

Catalogue photography is based on the clothes alone and is for information purposes to show people what they are buying. The background will almost always be simple to keep your focus on the model and the clothes she is wearing, a studio will usually be used but this can be done on location. You usually would shoot wide open to blur the background and keep the model in focus. The models make up and hair will be kept natural and simple.


Editorial

Editorial photography is usually done on location rather than a studio and the photos are not posed, the make up and hair will usually be much more extreme. The model will appear to be 'interacting' with a lifestyle and this type of photography is more commonly used for magazines.

High Fashion

High fashion photography uses models that are tall and slim, like runway models. The make up and hair is usually always very powerful and extreme, although it would never been seen in real life as it is photographed.
