Photoshoot Accessoires

    Technically I know this should go into services wanted - but hear me out first please :o (t might come in handy for other people too I reckon!)

    So - my query is the following. A friend of mine is organizing a photoshoot, featuring a sort-of alternative Alice-in-Wonderland wedding. We are having trouble sourcing the clothes and accessories for this shoot.

    Basicly, browsing through Ebay and all that, it would end up costing a lot of money, there is a small budget available but as it is for her portfolio we're not talking thousands.

    Where do people on here get their stuff for photoshoots? Source it from the stylers and Make-Up people? Anywhere that has customes available, or other advice on how to tackle this?

    Thanks

    All my friends make their own stuff, buy fabrics or recycle old clothes / dresses.

    It's a bit of fun too if nothing else

    There is a studio in Randalstown (up north) that has a huge wardrobe, big studio too. http://www.rsphotography.org/

    If you can't make it, you can blag it.

    Hi sNarah,

    Not sure if I should be promoting another site here but....

    Any site that deals specifically with modelling and photography (folio32, modelmayhem et al) will have lots of people in different areas who have something to offer a shoot, e.g. models, photographers, hair stylists, MUAs and, more akin to your query, wardrobe.

    Have you tried to get someone who designs outfits on board with the project? I'm sure if you have a quick look at these sites you will find someone who would help you in return for the photographs going onto their portfolio as well. Not only will they be experienced in dealing with outfits, they'll have a better idea and good contacts when it comes to sourcing materials and such.

    Hope this helps a bit

    Steve
