Rating of the best photo studios in Perm for high-quality photo shoots in 2020

Professional photography has become a part of the life of a modern person. An increasing number of people strive to preserve important moments of their life not only in memory, but also in a photo. Scrolling through the photos and looking at photobooks, you can plunge back into the significant events of your life, pleasant moments and, of course, you want the photos to be beautiful, so that you would like to review them, show them to relatives and friends. And the best way to get beautiful shots is to shoot in a professional studio.

However, photo studios are used not only for personal photo sessions. Currently, an increasing number of stores and pastry shops have begun to provide their services on an online platform. This is primarily due to the fact that there is no need to pay rent for the premises. But then another question arises before them, how to present their goods to customers. And this is where advertising and food photography comes to the rescue.

Among all the variety of photography can be distinguished: commercial and personal photography for home use. Shooting for home use includes: wedding, individual, children, family, erotic, nude (nude style). When choosing a studio for this type of filming, one should start from how convenient the location of the building is, whether there is free parking, whether there is a large selection of shooting props and thematic photo zones.

For commercial filming (advertising, product, interior, as well as culinary menu photography, model shooting for portfolios, business portraits), the technical characteristics of the studio come to the fore: the presence of professional lighting sources, a chroma key, a large selection of photo backgrounds, cyclorama, generators and a smoke machine ...

At the same time, regardless of whether you are planning personal or commercial shooting, there are general rules that must be used when choosing a studio.

How to choose a photo studio and what should you pay special attention to?

1. Location, availability of parking spaces, opening hours.
   All modern photo studios have a similar list of services provided, so when choosing a room, you should start from its territorial location (this is especially true for shooting with newborns or a wedding photo session). If it takes a long time to get to the studio, it is unlikely that shooting will give you pleasure, and in fact a calm and joyful mood is the key to successful photographs.
2. Hall area, ceiling height, panoramic windows.
   In order for the model and photographer to feel comfortable while shooting, they must have enough space to implement all their creative ideas. Professional photographers do not recommend choosing a studio with an area of ​​less than 50 square meters and a ceiling height of less than 3 meters.It is also desirable that panoramic windows be installed in the hall, since they allow the room to be filled with natural soft light, which looks most advantageous in photographs.
3. Studio interior.
   Almost every studio has at least 2 locations (dark and light) made in different styles and colors, and several thematic zones (children's, wedding, area with a bed and a fireplace). The choice of interior solutions depends on the idea of ​​photography and the personal preferences of the clients.
4. Availability of professional studio light.
   Each photo studio should be equipped with professional studio lighting. If you plan to shoot commercial, then you should pay attention to the availability of pulsed light (the most popular companies - manufacturers of lighting devices - ProFoto, RayLab, Hensel), a portrait dish, octobox, softbox, stripbox, parabolic umbrella. In this case, the power of the lighting devices must be at least 500 J.
5. The presence in the studio of a cyclorama, photophones, chroma key.
   Cyclorama - walls and floors painted in one color, mainly white, for filming clothes, a model portfolio. Photophones are a prerequisite for commercial photography. At a minimum, the studio should have 3 different colors of photography backdrops. Chromakey is used for video shooting and allows you to combine 2 different objects in one frame.
6. Availability of additional features.
   It can be an aquazone, a smoke machine, a soap bubble generator, the ability to shoot cars, shoot with a pylon, or rent suits with animals.
7. The presence of a make-up artist and your own photographer in the studio.
   It often happens that a client wants to take high-quality photographs in a particular studio, but does not want or cannot find a photographer on his own. In this case, the services of a staff photographer come to the rescue. The same goes for the makeup artist. Having your own make-up artist in the studio will greatly simplify the process of preparing for a photo shoot.
8. The presence of a dressing room, shower and relaxation area.
