The portrait photography industry has been really gathering pace over the last decade. What was once a tired, low value category that had changed little in over 150 years, has been totally revolutionised by state-of-the-art studios that offer so much more than stiff and lifeless portraits.
As a result, modern consumers now expect more from their portrait photography session, and market leading companies offer a service and an experience, all rolled into one. It was once acceptable to just turn up to your portrait photography session and let the photographer sit you on a furry rug and get snap happy, but those days are long gone. Today people plan ahead for their session and bring along props that represent their life, so that the finished product is a reflection of the real them.
Teams of talented photographers, designers and even interiors experts now work together in photo studios to create the most bespoke, interesting and exciting of finished photography products that leave their clients wanting to go back for more.
Many photo studios also now offer an extensive range of hand-crafted displays to enable clients to transform their dramatic portrayals of character into personal pieces of contemporary art. This has given way to the growing trend for personalisation, and many individuals are choosing to adorn their homes with their statement pieces.
