Photo Styling
Valentin Pinta - Paperback
£32.50
Despite having achieved a Master’s degree in new product design and innovations, Valentin Pinta wanted to go beyond engineering. Because the esthetic of products appealed to him, he was drawn to the art of creating. His creative practice focused on images: graphic design, technical drawings and photomontages of trends guiding new collections. He grew so passionate about design and styling that he became a style coordinator. He played an active role in catalog photo shoots, arranging still-life scenes to highlight fashion items. These skills led Valentin into work for ready-to-wear brands and fashion agencies. He would shoot street looks while on trips to Florence, Berlin or Paris. And alongside these pursuits, he started teaching styling at ESMOD Paris, naturally focusing on photo styling. So, it became important to draw up an overview of this profession.
