Backstage at Paris Fashion Week, you’ll find some of the best models, makeup artists, hair stylists and designers in the world. “If you don’t capture something beautiful, you’re doing something wrong,” says Kevin Tachman (@kevintachman), a veteran of shooting behind the scenes at shows. “The challenge is to quickly find the essential elements to capture at each show, keep your images fresh and remember not to take things too seriously.”
For Alexandra Utzmann (@alexandrautzmann), who was shooting backstage at the spring/summer 2015 collections for CR Fashion Book (@crfashionbook), the experience of photographing the work that goes on behind the runway is always a surprise. “You don’t know which kind of light is going to be back there, what the fashion and the casting are like, if you’re going to be stuck in a space for photographers or if you will be able to walk around,” she says. “Backstage can be kind of a fight—super crowded, very short time, very low light and a lot of photographers—but it’s also that energy that is interesting.”
