Hi, everybody. I am a photographer locally based in the magical island of Santorini, Greece. After hard work I finally managed to redesign my website to look more professionally and need your opinion. All kinds of comments are always welcome and appreciated. Please feel free to update me with your thoughts about the look & feel, design, the functionality, the logo, etc.

My photography website: http://www.studiokristo.com

Best Wishes,

Photographer in Santorini, Greece.

It'd be cool to see some of your guys's work. Mine is @ImChennie :)

I'm a photographer blogger for Not for Ordinary People (notforordinary.blogspot.com/) from London.

I'm looking for original looking models in London to build up my portfolio.

Shootings will take place from mid February during day light (not weekends) in London. If you are a model/ blogger etc... that can do her /his own make up and styling and have an original look, please get in contact replying under this AD.

I would like to do some grunge / rock /punk inspirational projects and shootings. as to be submitted to websites and magazines like Fashiongrunge etc.

Hi All,

I have an online shop selling jewellery (stonethemoon.com) and I have tried and tried to get a completely white background on the product photos and have pretty much failed with every attempt. I photo products in a light tent on a white background which is lit from the outside, with a higher exposure on my camera and the photos still turn out with a grey or coloured tint. I edit them using Gimp and adjust the levels and contrast and colour balance and the background still isnt completely white.

Can anyone help me with this as its driving me mad! How do you get a completely white background on product pics??

Thanks!

Kayte

Hi

i would like to know who take pictures with his iphone ? and do you like the quality?

or..how do you take them yourself?

Anyone in San Francisco want to collaborate on shooting with me? I live in Nob Hill and would love to meet up with any aspiring photographers/models/bloggers!

I usually have my outfit photos taken by coworkers or my fiancé (with him it's more like a light coercion than a voluntary thing). Who takes your outfit photos?

I'm looking for a photographer that lives in nyc! I'm moving there on the 19th and I'm a style blogger on the blog Lavishingg. I'm not looking for some kind of big time photogropher. Maybe if you're just getting into photography and want to expierement. I have no one to photograph my outfits because I know no one in the city so your help would be wonderful. I have been planning on getting a photographer for when I move for a long time now. We can discuss everything (pay included) if you're interested just email me at kierramakayla96@gmail.com or if you have ant suggestions please reply! 

Which is much better?

What photo editing software/apps do you use? I only use picmonkey on the web.

hey!! chictopians, anyone in the nyc area wanting to collaborate on a photoshoot? :)

i usually see pics that are stolen shots, serious looks.... my question is that what would be the most catchy post in front of the cam ? :)

What are some of your favorite blogs for photography inspiration?

Some I like are:

Anne Street Studio

Self Service Mag

I sometimes have a problem and I want to know if I am the only one. There are days when all my pictures turn out to be great, I take pictures of three outfits in the same day and love them all. There are other times when my pictures stop getting in the gallery, and I hate each and every of them!! I look ugly, or the poses are lame, or I never synchronize my body with the timer of the camera!! And I upload them on Chictopia, and then I keep deleting them!! I think it has been a week now when I hate all my new pictures. I mean, are there “talented” days with beautiful pictures and “bad” photo days? :P Does this ever happen to you?

Hi everyone!

My name is Evelyne and I'm the head of the fashion blog The Bubbly Speckle. (http://thebubblyspeckle.com)

We've had an incredible journey with many different kinds of collaborations with brands and online magazines such as Cosmopolitan, or Spektre and Anna Studio etc. 

However as I will be moving to London in September, TBS is looking for a new photographer who is willing to shoot once a week for the post. 

If you're interested or you know anyone who'd like to take up this fun and exciting challenge please don't hesitate to e-mail TBS!

If you're a blogger and looking for a photographer let me know! I can take some pics :)
Only for those from London :)

everyone’s pics look so good here on chictopia, i was just wondering what camera do you guys use?

I am helping my boss choose event photographers and I noticed that the ones with the most fancy equipment aren’t always the best ones. What makes a good event photographer?

Hello
With what program do you edit your pictures?
Is it online?or…

SO i’m planning on buying a new camera but i dont just want any digital camera. i want a professional camera. i want a camera that takes videos, focuses well, takes great pictures, looks like a professional camera but also is affordable and by affordable i don’t mean 100$ by affordable i mean a good camera that is worth its price,

please leave your suggestions below. i will really appreciate it.

What time of the day is it best to take outdoor style pictures? Is it better to have the sun behind you, in front of you, or above you?

Hi there,

Would you like to try street snap in spring? I'm a photographer.

Should we use SLR for a fashion photo shoot, or is it enough to use pocket camera or even an iPhone for the shoot?

What do you think?

Why do I keep getting red-eye in my night time photos? It looks so creepy so I have to go and edit them out. What causes this and how do I prevent it from happening all the time?

What’s your favorite place to shoot your outfit photos? Do you like to keep the background blank, or have more going on?

I absolutely love disposable cameras. If I could use them all the time, I would! Haha, my latest look was actually shot with a dispo! It was a lot of fun, not to mention convinient.

What are YOUR thoughts on disposable cameras?

What color do you photograph well in?
I’m olive skinned and I’ve noticed that I I looked washed out in pictures when I colors like red, salmon and beige. I look better in colors like royal blue, gray and black. Have you ever noticed this before? What colors looks best on you on camera?
