Glamour photography was a genre that was popular in the late 80's. You know the kind... soft focus, fluffy hair, feather boas, and don't forget to pose while you hold on to your collar. Check it out. So, I'm not talking about this kind of photography.
Contemporary glamour photography is a much more serious genre these days.
It's been modernized and improved and is more of a fashion style of shooting than anything else without the implications of boudoir photography. It's about lengthening and flattering the average body and face. It's about creating an image of yourself or your family that you can keep for a long time, something you can refer back to and be proud of. It's also about the connection between the photographer and the subject, it's about the posing of the client and the ultimate experience.
It's the photographer's responsibility to bring out the ultimate beauty in their client and to give them a beautiful image to live with for all time.
To make the shoot even more special, we partner with other professionals in the beauty industry to put together the perfect image.
This weekend, we will be having the ultimate glamour shoot in Ventura, CA on Saturday, July 10, from 9am - 3pm.Here is the Facebook invitation if you would like more information. Please let us know if you would like to schedule your sitting.
This shoot is particularly special, as three pros will be working together to provide the best possible image. We are providing a before picture, and our special clients will be pampered with a professional hair and makeup and then the final photo shoot.
How fun! Can't wait!
