A fashion portrait should convey emotion and follow a story line. Delightfully, besides these two rules, it doesn’t have to make sense.
Select a model that is willing to pose for you.
Try to look for models with interesting or unique facial characteristics, for example, large eyes.
Brief your model on the concept and storyline — the more the model understands your idea, the better.
Style and prop your model making sure their hair, makeup, clothing and accessories are exactly what you want; every detail helps illustrate your vision.
Have an assistant help the model while you get your equipment ready.
While the model is prepping, set up any artificial lights that you may be using.
Even, soft light is the most flattering and desirable when shooting fashion photography.
Try eliminating any unwanted shadows on the model unless it is part of your stylistic expression and concept.
Grab your camera with a minimum of an 80mm lens attached.
Select your film, aperture and shutter speed that is appropriate for your shooting conditions.
Compose your shot and meter on your subject.
Focus on the desired object or on a captivating part of the subject like the eyes or lips.
Reiterate the scenario and start snapping as your model lets the storyline and concept unfold.
Remember to tell your model when you see something you like or dislike. The more feedback you provide them, the better they will interpret your outline.
Shoot as much as you can.
Thank your model, and go check out the results.
