There is someone still in the studio and my time is next what should I do?
It’s very common for creatives to be zoned into their work and will lose track of time and neglect our calls too. There has been great results where you simply enter the room and politely let the user know you are here fo your designated time for them to leave as you setup.
It’s also okay to kindly ask if you can come in to setup real quick as they wrap up if they are okay with it. Always use your best judgement and if you are shy just give us a contact!
When is the best time of day to shoot?
Depending on the season and weather will provide various different looks to your taste. These results are based on clear blue skies conditions- If you need strong harsh sunlight you would want to book the time range of 730am to 11am. If you need a combo of shadow lines and to airy soft light the best times would be 12 noon to 4pm. Then 4pm to 5pm range would be golden hour inside the studio and after 5pm depending on the season you can still have the soft airy light up to 7pm with faster prime lens you will be fine.
