Horse Couple, Styled Shoot

This couple, if you couldn’t guess by the photos, loves horses. They wanted to have a photoshoot that incorporated their love for each other and horses and that was also styled. I’m so happy I was able to capture the essence of their love, their bond and their shared admiration for horses.

Everything about this shoot was perfection, they location, the sun, their outfits, their style.

Creating a styled photoshoot can be a fun and creative. Here are some tips to help you bring your vision to life:

1. Define Your Concept: Start by brainstorming and clarifying the concept or theme for your photoshoot. Determine the mood, style, colors, and overall aesthetic you want to convey. Having a clear vision will guide your decisions throughout the planning process.
2. Choose the Right Location: Select a location that complements your concept and enhances the overall theme of the photoshoot. Consider whether you want an outdoor or indoor setting, natural or urban landscapes, and the availability of props or specific features that align with your vision.
3. Curate Wardrobe and Styling: Carefully select clothing, accessories, and props that align with your concept. Pay attention to details such as color schemes, textures, and overall style coherence. Coordinate with a stylist to ensure the desired look is achieved.
4. Consider Lighting: Lighting can greatly impact the mood and ambiance of your photos. Decide whether you prefer natural light or artificial lighting setups. If you’re looking for natural light, do you want morning sunshine or moody afternoon/evening golden hour?
5. Pay Attention to Details: Small details can make a big difference in the overall outcome of your styled photoshoot. Focus on elements like floral arrangements, table settings, backdrops, and other decorative elements that enhance the visual narrative.
6. Be Flexible and Adapt: Photoshoots can encounter unexpected challenges, such as weather changes or last-minute adjustments. Stay flexible and be prepared to adapt your plans if needed.
7. Have Fun and Experiment: Remember to enjoy the process and have fun with your styled photoshoot. Allow room for experimentation and creative spontaneity. Some of the most captivating shots often come from unexpected moments or ideas.
