How has iphone revolutionised photography?
Gone are the days where people used to carry bulky and heavy cameras around just to capture precious moments during their trips. iPhones have revolutionised photography and have become the go-to device for travel photography. Not only are they compact and lightweight, but the quality of photos they produce is exceptional.
Can you share the process of a celebrity shoot?
The photoshoot begins with a critical step: hair and makeup. For celebrities, having a trusted and preferred hair and makeup team is of utmost importance. These professionals work closely with the celebrity stylist and the rest of the team to translate the desired look into reality. Last but not least, it is the collaboration of the entire team that brings the photoshoot to life.
