SUBMIT A PORTFOLIO OF 25 IMAGES

While each artist’s style should be apparent, the portfolio should be diverse in nature with different scenes, subjects, poses, and expressions. The objective is to demonstrate the artist’s skill and mastery of shooting in a variety of different settings and situations, exhibiting mastery of the specific niche of Brand Portraiture.

Brand portraiture typically involves capturing images that represent a brand’s identity, values, and personality. It goes beyond simply showcasing products and focuses on creating a visual narrative that resonates with the brand’s target audience. Your portfolio should include 25 images showcasing ONLY your skills in the area of Brand Portraiture.
