Children's model portfolio for an agency in Kiev

The images of the children's photo shoot for the modeling agency were agreed in advance according to the references from the customer. The clothes for the models were also provided by the customer. On our part, a selection of locations and photo studios was carried out for the most efficient use of shooting time. Moreover, in Kiev, there are only a few photo studios where you can take aqua photography. The main difficulty of this shooting was the part with water, but more on that in the next section.

At the appointed time, the models (two brothers Nazar and Zakhar, aged 9 and 10), together with their parents, arrived at the photo studio. The first 2 hours we worked with models on different backgrounds under artificial lighting. There we were creative and improvising, working out the technical task of the modeling agency: we filmed different emotions, camera angles and worked with a small number of scenes. Admittedly, working with children as models is more difficult than working with adults, but that's what they are children. The difficulty lies in the fact that young children have an endless supply of energy that they cannot control and strictly follow the photographer's instructions. This leads to the fact that shooting usually takes twice as long as an adult to get the desired result. The second part of the shooting took place at the location of the aqua zone. There we also worked with artificial light and water. Their parents poured water on them, and at the moment, at short exposures, I caught pictures in the freeze.
