Remote session



SHOOT WITH ME REMOTELY FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! IT IS EASY AND FUN!

How does it work?

The photographer can control the computer via a screen sharing software. We use Zoom that you will need to download to your computer before our shooting. This software is free, easy to use and it allows you to control my computer remotely. I share my screen and you can fully control the camera, focus, ISO, shutter speed, Fstop, colour balance, and all settings are adjustable remotely from your location. You can see what the lens sees via live view, take full resolution images, and we communicate via WhatsApp or FaceTime additionally.  The jpeg and RAW images are sent to you after the session to download and edit in your own way. Usually via WeTransfer, SwissTransfer or Dropbox.

What does the photographer need?

1. A reliable wifi connection
2. Download the free Zoom software to your computer or laptop – no sign up needed (this is how you will see my screen, control the camera settings and view what the lens sees in real time).
3. WhatsApp or FaceTime on your mobile phone to communicate via video call during the photoshoot

What is the process?

- A date and time is scheduled, and deposit paid.
- I offer a minimum booking of two hours (it can be 2,3 or 4 hours)
- I suggest 1-2 concepts/backgrounds per hour as it takes time to move in furniture, create new sets, change the clothing/accessories/make-up
- We discuss ideas and plans
- I provide you with the Zoom or Teamviewer link. Through this screen-sharing you will see what the camera lens sees in live time.
- We connect 15 minutes before the session and I introduce you to the controls and to the location
- You will have full control over all the settings and pressing the shutter button
- We communicate via video call during the whole session, I install my phone to a second tripod beside the camera so that you can see my shooting space, and feel a bit more in the room with me.
- After the session, I send the RAW and jpeg images via WeTransfer or similar

I provide my experience, the location, studio backdrops, furniture, accessories, styling, full frame camera, lenses, tripods, laptop, tethering, liveview software.
