Behind the scenes: photo shoot winter collection 2016

Last Saturday the photo shoot of the Sophie Stone winter collection 2016 took place. After some initial hick-ups (no make-up artist due to a miscommunication and a delayed start due to train disruptions), we started around a quarter to nine with putting on the first outfits, the make-up provided by myself and determining the first scene (where, with which light and which poses). Sanne and Laura, the models that also appeared in the photos of the summer collection, were photographed by photographer Mischa Keijser in Pakhuis West (an old peanut factory).

Improvised make-up

The beautiful light that fell through the high windows of the warehouse and the cappuccino from the nearby restaurant made for a good start. The first couple of outfits always need a bit more time and photos and during the shoot everyone gets more and more used to each other. The connection of the speakers and the accompaniment of Justin Bieber also does a lot.

Even loskomen voor de eerste foto

Een groot voordeel van Pakhuis West is dat er verschillende ruimtes zijn die gebruikt kunnen worden als decor. Zo hebben we foto's gemaakt bij een tegelwand, in een grote zaal met betonnen zuilen, de rookruimte, verschillende gangen en voor de lockers. Elke plek geeft weer een iets andere sfeer en biedt de mogelijkheid tot het uitproberen van verschillende poses.

5 hours and 11 cappuccinos later, the last outfit was finished! What follows now is the selection and editing of the photos, after which they will be placed in the webshop as soon as possible. 

Curious about the final photos? Keep an eye on the site (and/or social media)!
