Whether you photograph weddings, animals or people, all photographers have one thing in common: a portfolio.
A portfolio shows the work of a photographer so that interested future customers can get an idea of their work. But what does portfolio shooting mean?
A portfolio shoot is a shoot that only has the purpose of adding new, great images to your portfolio. After all, every photographer has lots of ideas in their head that they would like to implement and show. Often, however, there is no experienced model or you simply don't know where to start to organize such a shoot.

private
That’s why I have now introduced an offer especially for other photographers:
A private portfolio shoot. This private portfolio shoot is tailored to you individually. You tell me what you want and I find the right experienced model for you, a nice location and organize everything for the shoot for you. In addition to the model and location, this also includes the model's outfit and possible accessories (flower decorations, swings, etc.). All of the planning and scheduling is done by me, so you can sit back and relax. On the day of the shoot (you have to travel yourself), all you have to do is get started and enjoy, implement ideas and create heartfelt moments for eternity and of course for your portfolio.
You may have heard of portfolio days. These are days, often organized by other photographers, where many different models can be photographed in groups on the same day.
In this way, you have the opportunity to have lots of great teams in front of your lens within one day/evening and to create a wide variety of images for your portfolio.
A private portfolio shoot has the advantage that the model can concentrate fully on you. In large groups, as is usually the case on portfolio days, it can happen that your own wishes are lost or that there is simply not enough time to implement what each participant wants with each model. And of course, at the end, many photographers go home with similar motifs.
The advantage of a private portfolio shoot is that you can really focus on everything you want in peace and quiet. You don't have to take into account other photographers who might have you in their picture, or vice versa. Especially if you are a quieter type and tend to seem a bit intimidated or reserved in larger groups, a private portfolio shoot is probably better suited to your needs. Here, too, it is sometimes possible to combine several models one after the other at one location. With me, you not only have the opportunity to choose the right model for you from a range of experienced models, but also to use a special location (beach, heath, dune park, lake). Depending on what ideas you would like to implement or what you would like for your portfolio, anything is possible.
