Shooting beautiful and touching portraits might be a complicated task. Moreover, if your photoshoot is empowered with a solid idea that you want to deliver through images, the photoshoot becomes a precisely measured art work itself where every detail has a purpose. Photographer Nikk Rich has paved the way to his ongoing series of well thought photoshoots that deliver both the beauty and the message.
Nikk Rich was very kind to share his insight on the idea of the shoot:
“This beauty shoot is an on going project about women of color. I hold portrait sessions almost every Saturday. I wanted to create work that young black girls/women can look up to and feel represented, today, 5 years from now, even when I’m gone. These portraits show confidence but still holds a softness that is open and welcoming. Each portrait is a combination of care, love, and even insecurities of me and the person I am photographing. That transitions into each photograph and it’s something I hope every person experiences when viewing this work.
The setup is a very simple one light set up, I am a one (wo)man bandstand, normally on set it’s just me and my subject.
You can find more of this work on my website and also sign up if you would like to take part.”

StageF was used for this team’s creative session. The studio is the smallest space we currently offer for our clients. Yet it is one of the most brightest stages with the tremendous amount of natural light coming from North West. It has gained a nickname – “light box” by some of our regulars and it truly fulfills it at any time of the day from dawn until dusk. This studio also features two section laminate floor of white and dark color for your creative needs. As with any of our stages, Studio F comes with 3 strobe lights already included in the hourly rate and backdrop seamless paper installed. Take a closer look HERE.
