"Think before you shoot"

Think before you shoot questions how hairdressers tune into a creative process that enables them to design a hair collection in preparation for a photographic shoot. Illustrated insights are guaranteed to trigger the imagination.

The "THINK" project will inspire you the hairdresser, Art director or salon owner to identify your original, authentic style.

Presentations by photographers, graphic designers, stylists and makeup artists will help you develop concepts for shoots producing images for advertising, public relations or a  salon portfolio.

Think before you shoot approaches:

The STORY...Inventing a story through styling and film that captures the language of hair and cultivates the message that represents you as an artist or the image of your business.

The BRAND...The choice of photographer and style of photography becomes a unique signature in terms of building the bigger picture.

The PRINT...The difference between commercial, editorial and beauty pictures.

Hairdressers that have attended "Think" from salons in London:

Stage Door, Rush, Fame team, Kevin Kahn, Sean Hanna, Umberto Giannini and Regis.
