For models – Informations, preparation, some thoughts


As I often get asked (especially by newcomer-models) how a model should prepare for a shooting, what the „dos and don'ts" are, etc. when shooting with me, and because every photographer is a little bit different on his approach and what he likes and doesn't like, I want to write it down and sum up a little bit, what is important for me.

Hi folks!

Besides all the blog-posts about making-ofs, set-ups, travel-reports,etc. I want to write some critical and/or provocative texts in between them. I just have to write about „serious" topics as well from time to time if they are important to me, interesting for me, or touching me at that moment.

Hi folks!

After the first „emergency"-Set up I'll explain the second one in this blog-post. I've never used this setup for photographing people before, but the idea was to include a setup with very soft and natural light (especially for the ladies). As it was a „first-timer" for me, I've hoped it will work as planned.
