Conceptualizing

Collaboration with fashion brands during this phase is vital. Regular meetings and communication ensure that every detail is discussed—from the overarching theme to the specifics like model poses and props. This collaboration helps forge a strong connection between the images and the brand’s messaging, ensuring that the final photographs look spectacular and work hard to convey the brand’s identity and appeal to its target audience.
