Short Modelling Journal as A R T (All Round Trainee)
Managed to do many photo shoots now since I’ve been here.
Six with Dave and one with two photographers from Net-model.
They have all been great and really useful to help get more photos for my portfolio.
Especially as I currently have the best tan of my life! - Whoop whoop.
Each shoot has been in a different location, really giving my portfolio a lot more range.
With Dave we did a black and white shoot on some rocks, just round the corner from the main beach. It was quite a quiet location, apart from the local “professional photo director.” He took it upon himself to interfere with every shot we were trying to take. He was a lovely Greek man, but extremely irritating and quite off-putting. We still managed to get some nice shots though; we just cut the shoot shorter than we probably would have done otherwise.
Dave managed to arrange a shoot for a local 5* hotel/ spa. The owner of the ‘Royal Hall hotel’ were looking for a photographer to take some commercial shots for their website.
I was able to help with this shoot, which was fantastic. It was brand new and right up in the mountains. I have never seen such a beautiful hotel.
We spent the afternoon taking photos outside the villa’s (looking down at the view over Crete), then also in the spa. I was working with another girl, who lived over in Crete, but was English. We got to use all the facilities, for example sauna, steam room, swimming pool all afternoon, whilst Dave took photos of us using them. It was so much fun and really relaxing.
The photos have now been put up online, but I haven’t had a chance to check them out yet.
Hopefully I’ll be able to print off a few for the portfolio.
