How Would You Photograph a Fashion Show?

fashion-show-photography.jpg“I’ve been asked to represent a fashion website as their photographer at a fashion show next month in Australia and while I’ve done a lot of portrait style photography I’ve never covered an event like this. Do you or your readers have any advice for this aspiring fashion photographer?” – Alex

This email hit my inbox during the week and I thought it’d make an interesting reader discussion/workshop.

What advice would you give Alex? Alex tells me that she shoots with a single camera body – a Canon EOS 5D and has three lenses that she can choose from – a 24-105mm f/4 L, a 70-200mm f/2.8L IS and a Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L.

  • Which lens/lenses should she take?
  • How would you recommend she use them?
  • What shots should be go after?
  • What other fashion photography advice or tips would you give?
