THIS IS YOUR HERO SHOT OF YOUR CAMPAIGN, IF YOU HAVE ACCESS GET YOUR MODEL ON A SAILBOAT

HAVE HER LEAN ON THE MAST OR THE MAIN SAIL INTERACTING WITH THE SETTING

THIS SETS THE SCENE AND ALSO ACTS AS A VISUALLY STRIKING FULL BODY IMAGE

LOVE THE IDEA OF SHOOTING FROM A DISTANCE ON A SLIGHT ANGLE UP, FRAMING OUT ANY WATER OR BOATS IN THE BACKGROUND, SKY ONLY

NO NEED TO TAKE IT ON THE WATER. THIS SHOT CAN BE TAKEN FROM THE DOCK ON A STATIONARY SETTING

YOUR SUBJECTS ARE JUST RETURNING FROM A DAY ON THE WATER

THEY IDEALLY HAVE ALL OF THEIR GEAR OR BAGS WITH THEM

SHOWING THEM IN MOTION LEISURELY GOING FROM ONE STOP TO THE NEXT

IDEALLY THIS SHOT HAS WATER IN THE BACKGROUND, BY THE WATERS EDGE OR ON A DOCK

OUR GOAL WITH SHOW THE COMPLETE LOOK AND THREAD THE STORYLINE TOGETHER WITH ACTION SHOTS

LITERALLY, PLACE YOUR PRODUCTS DIRECTLY ON A PILE OF ROPE

OR HAVE YOUR MODEL INTERACT WITH THEM IN ANY WAY

DISPLAY JEWELRY THIS WAY BY HANGING PIECES OFF OF A LARGE KNOT

OR HAVE YOUR MODEL LEAN AGAIST THEM IF THEY ARE A PART OF YOUR SETTING

SIMPLE ROPE SPIRALS FOR ACCESSORY SHOTS ADD TEXTURE AND VISUAL INTEREST

IF YOU ARE IN STUDIO, GET CREATIVE WITH ROPE PILONS AS PRODUCT STANDS

& DON’T FORGET.. WHILE YOU ARE ON SET, TAKE A FEW B-ROLL NON PRODUCT SHOTS OF ROPE DETAILS. YOU CAN USE THESE LATER FOR FILLER GRAPHICS THROUGHOUT YOUR CAMPAIGN SOCIAL POSTS.

HAVE YOUR SUBJECT INTERACT OR POSE WITH THE BOATING PROP OF CHOICE , HERE THE MODEL SITS ON A BOUY

KEEP IT SIMPLE, HOLDING IT AT THEIR SIDE OR OVER THE SHOULDER IS AMPLE

CANDID SHOTS WORK EXTREMELY WELL IF YOU’D LIKE YOUR MESSAGE TO LEAN MORE RELATABLE/LIFESTYLE.

OR SET IT UP AND HAVE YOUR MODEL STAND NEXT TO IT, FRAMING THEM IN THE CENTER

BE MINDFUL OF THE COLOR CHOICES OF YOUR PROPS. THIS CAN EITHER ACCENTUATE YOUR FOCAL POINT OR DISTRACT FROM IT. LOVE THE THOUGHTFUL USE OF THE SMALLER BLUE ROPE DETAIL HERE.

I WOULDN’T SUGGEST THIS INTENSE EYE CONTACT BUT … YOU MAY CONSIDER GIVING A PROP A MAKEOVER WITH YOUR BRANDING OR COLORS IF YOU ARE USING THIS FOR A PRODUCT BASED CAMPAIGN OR EVENT

FOR THIS SHOT YOUR MODEL IS RESTING OR IN “STAND BY” MODE

FIND A PLACE FOR YOUR MODEL TO SIT, & EVEN SLOUCH. THIS ADDS VARIETY TO YOUR CAMPAIGN IMAGES, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ACTS AS YOUR DETAIL SHOT

CONSIDER SMALL STOOPS, DOORWAYS, OR POSTS WITHIN YOUR COLOR PALETTE

USE A DOCK IF YOU HAVE ONE. A SHOT LIKE THIS IS IDEAL

IF YOU ARE SHOOTING PRODUCT, CONSIDER IT IN THE BAG ON YOUR. MODELS SHOULDER

EVEN A POSE LIKE THIS AGAINST A WALL WOULD WORK AS WELL. MAKING SURE GARMENT DETAILS ARE CLEAR

A CLEAR TORSO SHOT SHOWCASING THE 3 PIECE MATCHING SET TOGETHER.

SHOWCASES YOUR LOOK IN A LIFESTYLE ENVIRONMENT COMMUNICATING HOW AND WHERE THIS LOOK IS MEANT TO BE WORN

TWIST THE WAIST BAND, TUCK A SHIRT END OR DRAPE AN OUTER LAYER OVER THE SHOULDER. CREATING A LIVED-IN LOOK.

CROP IN FOR A TIGHTER SHOT, MOVING AWAY FROM A PORTRAIT AND MAKING THE FOCAL POINT THE GARMENTS VS. THE FACE

LOVE THE STYLING CHOICES HERE OF 2 OPPOSING LAYERED SHIRTS + SWIM BOTTOMS. IM PERFECT AND VISUALLY INTERESTING.
