How A Shoot Runs

Six steps from the first brief to the files.

From Brief To Files

Six Steps, About Three Weeks

An editorial takes about three weeks from the first brief to the last retouched file; a campaign with a casting, five.

  1. A moodboard reference: curls and a black dress01

    The Brief

    A moodboard, the looks, the pages or placements, and the usage. We send a quote within a working day.

    Day 1
  2. A casting polaroid: a model with closed eyes02

    Casting & Team

    Models from the agencies, hair and make-up, styling and the studio, held with the 30% deposit.

    Days 2 - 7
  3. A ring light in a dark studio03

    The Light

    A lighting test the day before: the key, the fill and the skin, so the day starts on the first look.

  4. A model between two strip lights04
