Recently I got to shoot Yolanda Soares’ album cover in my Lisbon studio.  Yolanda is an amazing cross over singer , who’s new album in a line up of four  Fado Royal  was just launched and is available in shops like Fnac or on Spotify . 

For the cover art  we wanted to got with a portrait that had the look and feel of classic painting of a member of the royal family . I tried to create textures and layers using different Westcott back drops , some old coper sheets I have lying around the studio were perfect to create a unique floor , I even used a mirror  from my living room , add some smoke and a  golden arm chair , we crafted a simple but pretty setting for Yolanda . 

The entire setup was pretty complex and required some fine-tuning to get everything exactly as it was supposed to be. As always, small details make a big difference in the end result.

Doing test shots before the model is ready (usually before she arrives or while she’s doing hair and make-up) allows me to save time and have everything ready when it’s time for the real shoot.

Having a make-up artist on set is a very important part of the job.
