Photo Shoot Ideas

Ngenye

Ok well I need some shoot ideas for the summer. I've done one or two already but now need ideas for my new male models, any suggestions?

Whats your previous shoot ideas so we can rule those ideas out, maybe show a picture too just as an example

no image in the post above.

try themes like Kyle did last year (I think it was Kyle) ... earth, fire, water, wind...

stuff like that.

other "ideas" .... shoot numbers, shoot letters of the alphabet, shoot traffic signs, shoot buildings, shoot abandoned buildings, shoot streets, shoot people (not literally).... the list is endless.

Thanks for the list but i need ideas for male models

models shouldn't really matter.... if you want to shoot male/female models take them to a location and take photos of them, if you went to the same location with male models you would get different pics.

its about the location.... choose a different location, maybe an urban scene (graffiti on walls) .... get the guys to pose in front of that.

goto a public park....get the models to pose in the park.....

goto the seaside or a lake and get the models to pose in or near the water.

goto a waterfall and get the models to pose in front of that.

if you are looking to get "better"* or more artistic images.... try experimenting with different techniques - light painting, long exposure times, off camera flash etc ..... try shooting different angles, with model looking away from camera, towards camera, shoot from above, shoot from behind.

*"better" used in a subjective manner does not mean you will improve your images but will allow you to get a more different image....which may or may not be perceived as a better image to present images.

Thanks for all the tips
