Fresh Photos and Digitals in New York City
You've put in the work. You know your angles, your range, and what you bring to a set. Agencies, clients, and casting see your photos before they meet you. Your portfolio, your feed, and every submission you send put your newest work in front of them.
When your work is current, anyone looking at it sees you as you are now. Your digitals match the person who walks in, and your newest images show where you're headed.
Digitals Plus New Work
A shorter session than the Model Portfolio Development sessions, this session starts with five digitals, then moves quickly to shots sthat we style together.
Choose 5 of the styled captures before you leave and they will be retouched and delivered within a week. The rest are put in a gallery for 30 days so you can purchase more when you want them.
Images are shot on either a white cyclorama wall or gray seamless paper. They idea is to capture clean images that don’t need a lot of post production work and are ready to feed your social media, supplement your book, or just keep your production moves fresh..
Guided from start to finish
It’s a cooperative processes the whole time. We shoot some frames, review on the laptop, and return to shooting based on the visual feedback.
You see the images as you go
Seeing images on the computer as we shoot helps fine-tune the styling and posing. It’s an instant feedback system. By the end of the session, you should have a good idea of what hit and what missed. It can make choosing your images at the end fairly straight forward. You walk out knowing what's going to be delivered later that week.
Five finished images, plus your digitals
Each image is lightly retouched: color, exposure, crop, obvious skin blemishes, basic flyaways. The work is clean, finished, and ready to post or submit. That's the fresh work that keeps you moving.
Your digitals and finished images are delivered within a week as JPEG files, 3,300 pixels on the long edge. If you'd like a comp card from your session, one can be made after delivery for an additional fee.
