Commercial Photography 101: How many differences can you see?
: :
: :
Whatâs the difference between âshooting for outlineâ and telling a story? Take a look and see what differences do you notice between these two images, and how they make you feel.
The one on the left is shot for outline on a white sweep, making it ideal for our crazy skilled retoucher to cut out the image to be layered onto a background of the clientâs choice. (You didnât think those cute puppy food models sat perfectly in a grassy field, did you?) Youâll notice that even though the focus and lighting are right itâs somewhat emotionally neutral, even flat. There is not much story here, and sometimes thatâs exactly what you want. Let the client take the outline and place it into whatever their narrative dictates, allowing a lot of flexibility.
Then, sometimes the client asks you to help tell the story. An organic dog food company might request an earthy image that conveys trust, hope, and health. This can be created with a simple addition of warm elements like a wooden door, softer lighting, and a change in the depth of field. Now your heart is melting, right?
Same winsome model, wildly different results. Bottom line: get to know what your client needs, and then make it happen! That's what we love to do.
It was a tie for cuteness on set yesterday! #meijer #photography #kidsrule #puppylove #shippert #supermodel #instagram via Instagram http://ift.tt/1rPm1fQ
Tradition
: :
:Â :
This is for Neva. Her recent 97th birthday celebration included telling stories of the old days, pulling out the atlas and reliving travels with the love of her life. The years drop out of her voice - she lights up as she recounts adventures far more clear in her mind than what happened yesterday.
She is in her porch-sitting years, reflecting on the long life sheâs had. Sheâs wistful and grateful at the same time, and we wanted her tribute image to show that in the light and shadows, almost like the sun setting on all she holds dear while still warmly embracing it.
She is melancholy yet formidable, stylish and hospitable. This image tells her story: fine china, Italian stationery, the softest French silk ribbon, her favorite flowers, and a key to the past with her initial on it. These tokens of her life find their foundation on an old barn door, just as this farm girl built a good life with humble beginnings on a Nebraska farm. Itâs a humbling and rewarding task to build an image that could begin to convey such a life, such a strong spirit.
On her birthday, a large bouquet of sunflowers arrived. She snorted with derisive glee - âI hate sunflowers! Who is that from?â She guessed, and sure enough, they are from the man that manages her still-thriving farm so many states away, a man who knows that Neva spent her childhood hacking down âthose awful weedsâ with a machete. This woman has a crackling sense of humor in the midst of what might seem from the outside to be a shrinking life. The shadows may be lengthening, but the richness and history (and love) remain.
And so it goes.
Celebrating you today and always, Philip.

Memorial, Gratitude, and Growth
On Wednesday, August 27, 2014, we will mark one year since the sudden passing of our beloved founder and principal photographer, Philip Shippert. As small business is often like family, the team here at the studio felt the loss keenly. We are deeply grateful to the clientsâboth near and farâwho pledged their commitment to the studio as it transitioned from Philip to his trusted protĂŠgĂŠ, Shane Folkertsma. The memorial will involve planting flowers in his honor, telling stories, and doing his favorite thing â working with a passion for excellence. The studio recently welcomed a new client liaison and creative director; exciting additions that are contributing to growth and furthering Philipâs legacy.
Commercial Photography 101: What's wrong with this picture?
At first glance, this ârough draft" image is robust, romantic, and makes us thirsty! Thatâs exactly what we want. As we were setting up the shot, we prepared every detail youâd expect â how many milliliters of wine creates the perfect splash, which lights and angles make the wine look delicious and flowing (but not visceral), and so on. Nothing can escape our consideration and thought process as we create a perfect image. To meet the clientâs need, we notice every detail, and then creatively problem solve if we find one that threatens the overall presentation. So did you find it yet? Maybe we're being picky, but itâs our job to be perfectionists and hunt down those little discrepancies that can become major issues when an image is published. (You can always tell when an image that may have looked good at a small size is now broadcasting its issues on a billboard or a magazine spread.) Have fun playing detective! Hereâs a hint: look at the front of the glass.
