“What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.”
Continuing series of quick and fun photographer surveys we checked with 4 Los Angeles photographers what was their creative set theme of the day.
The full interview is available of YOUTUBE. For your convenience, here is the transcript of it as well.
Loretta Richert @lolagraphy_photo : Hi, I’m a dance and portrait photographer. I shoot mainly dancers and some yoga. This shoot is gonna be what all my shoots are like. I have two really amazing dancers showing up and it’s a collaboration when I shoot with the dancers, especially somebody so talented and good. One of them I shot with before.
Really, I kind of set the mood with the music that I see for the shoot, and then I let them warm up as I warm up shooting. I see how they’re moving, I see how I’m feeling, how I’m shooting, and we just kind of expand on it together. So, I have feedback and input but I’m also really open to seeing what shots we get and where we’re going. I did bring two really fun tutus, so I’m gonna shoot the two dancers in tutus and that’s all I have. That’s all I’ve got to start with.
Sasha @MoisNoMois : Today we’re shooting [@kdobraya], she’s a blogger from Moscow, a really good friend of mine. This is gonna be fun.
Zuzanna @the_zuz : What we’re shooting is purely a personal project. I found some of my old tear sheets in my house and I was just inspired by some of the shots. Since I had a free day I said, “Why not? Why not just do some personal work?”
Dee @trill_imagery : Today we’re gonna do some fashion editorial looks in the studio and maybe outdoors. I’m working with a great crew today and I can’t wait to see the outcome of the photos. You guys stay tuned.
