Celebrity Portfolio Photo Shoot

How to do the perfect celebrity photoshoot In this world where change is the only permanent and constant reality, we are often put in a situation where we ‘typecast’ some personalities or occasions or incidents. After all, one has to apply their judgement before the change occurs. One such place where we often end up being judgemental more than necessary is how we typecast the way we look at celebrities. Celebrities are always the ‘goto’ when we fancy gossiping! This is not just the case with our local celebrities but with everyone around the world. Imagine you see an actor continuously portraying the same kinda role for at least 2-3 films, let’s say a police officer; it would be difficult for us to look at him as something other than a police officer. Sadly though, this situation is faced significantly by female artists, particularly in the South Indian film industry. If you were to take daily soaps, women who are portrayed in a particular fashion and unfortunately for them, they are branded to be that character. If you were to decipher this situation, there are two outcomes from this. One is that you do not allow the actor/ actress to […]

Besides, the silk saree industry has become world renowned that the demands are certainly skyrocketing. As someone who has been in the commercial photography space for nearly two decades, we, at FotoZone can undoubtedly say that we have done our tiny bit to help the industry thrive. Here is how… 1.

The female model plays the role of a bride to be precise and there could be other characters involved like the groom for instance, or a friend or the parent. What usually happens is that the attention (or the focus) gets carried away from the saree to the person or their emotion. The audience is not compelled enough to look at the saree anymore but shift their focus to the jewellery or a overexcited friend character or an emotional father […]

Age does’t matter to be an actor or a model, in this era the spree of becoming an actor and model has struck the whole universe. And the way the portfolio is made diminishes the professionalism.

When The Photographs Sounded Devine

When The Photographs Sounded Devine Music is always a divine thing in everyone’s life. Music fills in the hollow in our life, our loneliest emotions are always filled with music that is audible only to us. Our dreams are empty without music, music is something that God has given us to lean upon. The creators of such music are almost the manly Gods, that’s how I see them. Every religion has its own form and use of music, I hope music is something that’s accepted universally without difference. My professional life as a Photographer is filled with people, I have met millions, I have captured thousands performing, I have triggered emotions, I have shot the stars to fame but these are some of the things I really owe to be treasured, the moments with these musical prodigies were the real realm of divinity to me.

I got an opportunity to stand behind the lenses to shoot him for Dheepam oil advertisements, the moment I saw him, the divinity in his attire, his […]
