Once we have booked a band for a professional photo session we have a consultation. The consultation helps us understand who the band is and the look and feel they want to create. We need to understand the genre of music, the persona and the style of the band. We often start our consultation with the question, “What are you looking for in your band photography?”. We also instruct them to send us inspirational images. If a band does not have inspirational images, we ask them to send us images they don’t like. Though this sounds strange, it still helps us with a vision of what they like and don’t like. We then proceed on a setting. Will the band photo shoot take place indoors or outdoors. Do we need to rent a venue, or can we produce the look they want in our studio? What type of professional photographic lighting should we use to create the perfect band photo? These are all things that we have to consider as a photographer when we are working with a band. Bands are artistic and generally know who they are. They want to make sure that their brand matches their photos. Learn more about our music photography.

Band Photography
Band Photography We love having band photography sessions. When you get to photograph a cool band like Rellen, it makes our job easy. Our main goal for the band photography session was to capture a composite of the band. The description of a composite image is a photo that is a combination of multiple images. These images are then merged together into one single image. We photograph the elements of a composite image on a green screen. Then the individual images are extracted from the background in Photoshop. In conclusion you then layer in multiple elements and filters to create a somewhat surreal image. This was the single image that was the result of their session. Contact us today for more information on a photography services. How to Prepare for Your Band Photography Session When we are preparing to photograph a band, or any composite, a lot of preparation must happen. Bands have already developed their “style” and are artists. In general, artists, have a look that they already have achieved, or are trying to achieve. Communication is key when planning for a band photography session. We must find out the style or the look the band wants to be labeled with. Once that is established we have to rule out what they don’t want. Next we have to agree on a theme for the image. Finally we have to create a background image. The background image will determine the posing that must be captured to create the final image. Photography lighting and your camera angle must match the background perspective. Before we photograph a composite image, we draw several sketches. This gives us options for posing. When the band arrives we will try a variety of poses, but only poses that will work in the composite that we are creating. This helps us think through what can truly work in a final image.

Bands, solo artists, families and some of our corporate clients now are wanting more from their photography. Some of our corporate clients are wanting to stand out in a crowded market. When we can create a unique composite image, it will help them do that. Companies that want to portray themselves in different setting is now possible through composite images. Families that want their images to be more unique then the “Jones”, it is a perfect option. Learn more photography tips here. Are you looking for a photographer to create a unique composite image?
