Corporate Portrait

Most of us in a professional photo studio have our photos taken very rarely. However, it is not difficult at all and I explain and show in great detail where to turn your shoulders, how to tilt your head and even how to look confident in photos.

Yes, I retouch photos and remove noticeable skin defects — eyes bags and some skin nuances. I retouch scars and other individual features upon request — since there are elements, removing which can make a person’s face less recognizable. Therefore, I try to be careful with processing — it is important that it is YOU on the photo! It is also necessary to take into account that all those small defects and skin texture are visible only when viewing photos in full screen, and excessive retouching on reduced photos looks unnatural.

There is a footnote about this in the price section depending on the package price you have chosen. I would also like to draw your attention to the fact that during the shooting we always look at the resulting images and together make the necessary corrections to the process. The final choice of photos to be processed remains with me, but it is always based on a joint decision in the process of viewing the pictures. If you need more photos than indicated in a specific price package or during the photoshoot we understand that the number of successful shots exceeds that provided for by the selected price package, you can order additional retouching (1000 rubles / photo) of those photos that you like. 

The delivery time depends on the chosen price package and fluctuate from several hours to several days. If you need to receive image s urgently, please notify me in advance.

Photos will be provided in digital form using file-sharing Internet services. 

One of the conditions of my work is that I do not provide all the original files (RAW). During the shooting process, we constantly look at the photos on the laptop screen and make a preliminary quick selection. In addition to the selected photos, I also send all the successful photos that for some reason were not the best. They can be used without processing or, if desired, you can order additional retouching (1000 rubles/photo). 

At the moment I do not offer discounts, as I shoot equally well regardless of the day of the week or time of year. But you can subscribe to one of my pages on social networks and if there are special offers in the future, you will immediately find out about it. 

Recommendations for self-preparation for the photo shoot: 

   — get enough sleep 

   — make sure your hair is clean and neatly combed 

   — correct your beard/moustache/sideburns/eyebrows in advance (not an hour before the photo shoot, to avoid irritation) 

   — it’s a shame when the photo is ruined by folds in your clothes, so it’s better to pack your clothes in advance to make sure you have time to iron them 

Recommendations for clothing: 

It is preferred to avoid bright colors, prints, small or colorful patterns on clothing (this distracts from the most important thing — your face)

Solid-color clothing in natural, muted colors looks great on photos: white, gray, black, blue, beige, brown, olive, etc. 

It is important to take into account that for close-up portraits only the top part of your clothing (up to the shoulders and slightly below) will be in the frame. 

When choosing clothes, of course, you need to start from where the photos will be used: if this is a resume for a management position, then most likely it is a suit, if a photo for social networks, then something less formal. 

I do not recommend using very noticeable jewelry when shooting. Chains, beads and other accessories are very distracting and interfere with the perception of the portrait. You can take with you unobtrusive jewelry, small earrings or stud earrings are also acceptable. 

Give priority to items that fit true to size and sit well.
