HOW DOES A FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER CLICK GREAT IMAGES?
I have done many shoots in the past couple of years, but it is very rare to find that one shot where you enjoy yourself and the whole creation process, and this was the shot I knew was going to be something special.
HOW GREAT IMAGES ARE CREATED.
We were shooting for the cover of The Meraki Project magazine in Hyderabad. I had my favourite model friend Sowmya working with us on the project and the sweetest editor Sonali on the team. So for this shot, we had to portray a bucket of milk being inverted on the model while she is sitting and giving a very cold, bossy look while capturing the splash of milk.

It was challenging as we had to find the right spot to set up everything in advance as we had limited milk. So Sonali had an idea in mind and showed us the perfect location.

We set everything up and took a few test shots. We had to dilute the milk to make it double so that we could have a backup in case things go the wrong way. We took a couple of shots and voila we had our shot in the first go.

We were all too excited, and the model all drenched obviously. Haha. But it was all a fantastic experience. I have been doing fashion photography for almost 3+ years now, and this was the most exciting shoot I got to do.
