Behind the Scene -How I get an inspiration for fashion editorial photography- by harumi

 
 

To come to this point, where images for a fashion editorial, there is a process of creating images in our way of putting out the original creativity. Here, I’m going to leave little tips on getting inspiration to make your images for fashion editorial from my recent shooting.

1. Gathering images that catch your eyes on Pinterest

Pinterest is a crowd of ideas for photography. The platform gives us tips of your creativity, not only for life routines but for photography and styling work. Yes, there are critics that we see the same images on the platform every day and losing the authenticity of creation. However, I still believe in Pinterest, giving me a chance to get inspired and define my taste. Also, that allows me to show my work to the public.

For my photography boards, go to my page, and hope images I've pined gives your inspiration freedom.

2. Checking catalogs of brands that fit your style

I correct catalogs and look-books, mostly clothing brands, furniture stores, or just other fashion editorials.

These really help me form my taste, and any time I have difficulty with deciding a taste for the next images, those catalogs from professional stylists, photographers, editors..etc.., resonate with me so much.

 

3. Gathering clothing, fabric, and accessories I’d like to use for an image

Finally, after gathering images on Pinterest and getting inspired from other catalogs, I pick dresses and accessories from my apartment and see how I can get my creatives to be visible, making things in my head real.

I think this is a vital part of creating your own images. You see what taste you are getting attracted to usually, and even you’re unconscious about what you have, this time tells you that which styles and objects you pay attention and put a value on.

Although I don’t wear the Victorian style in a daily scene (secretly, want to), if I find an antique dress or jewelries, just buy them and keep those in my dresser. So that if any occasion comes to me, shooting, those are my business tools to make my work the best outcome.

 

So those are my creative process of getting inspiration for fashion editorial photography and how I organize my thoughts to make things happen for real.

Hope those help you find your way of creatives and thank you so much for reading : )
