Acting portfolio photo shoot in Perth
We recently had the pleasure of doing an acting portfolio shoot for Shoreina, who is an accomplished theatre actor in Perth and the lead in one of the current productions. Her main aim in visiting us was for head shots for her portfolio, as she aims to spread her wings overseas in the near future. Along with capturing some beautiful head shots for her, we were also able to have some fun with a few different ideas and captured some really beautiful photos that she can treasure for a lifetime!
Acting and modelling portfolios are a popular reason for our customers to book a glamour photography session at our studio.
If you are thinking of creating an acting or modelling portfolio, there are a few things that you should consider:
- Take into consideration what line of acting or modelling you want to pursue, and bring outfits that compliment that vision.
- Consider using props – Shoreina brought in a gorgeous Venetian mask that beautifully complimented her ball gown, while also giving the impression that she is a theatrical performer.
- Think of the overall image you want to portray – do you want to appear serious, elegant, fun or casual? The Team at Cooper Studio can assist you in building a portfolio that is sure to impress!!
- If you would like to know more about how we can create a stunning portfolio to help advance your career in acting or modelling, or wish to book your shoot – contact us!
Horsing Around – a horse photography shoot in WA!
I recently had the absolute pleasure of photographing Jessica Blackwell and her horse Quai in the Swan Valley on the outskirts of Perth, WA. Jessica is an author and the owner of Equestricare, an innovative equine sports therapy, rehabilitation and education service. And while Jessica has had her fair share of photos for books and to advertise her business, this shoot was just for her and Quai!
This fantastic shoot was timely as I’ve been researching horse photography recently and noticed that most photographs were designed to be classical displays of the horse’s breeding, but there really wasn’t much that spoke of the very special relationship that owners share with their horses. I wanted to do something that was a lot more personal, timeless and emotional. So check out some of the other images we got:
A lot of our customers don’t realise that we photograph many kinds of pets as well as human subjects. And as this shoot shows, it doesn’t have to be limited to just cats and dogs!
- Naturally, horses need to be photographed on location (our studio is big, but not that big)!
- Think about including other loved ones – and even other family pets – in the shoot! (We’re always up for a challenge!)
- Your horse doesn’t have to be a show winner! They are an important part of the family, so let’s tell an emotional story! Think about what they mean to you and your family members!

A recent beauty portrait shoot.
A couple of weeks ago we did a shoot for the lovely Angela. Just thought it would be nice to share these portrait photos as I really like them.
These are really elegant and sophisticated portraits and Angela was a great model, although she had never had a professional photography shoot like this before. She chose an equally sophisticated leather portrait album to display her photos in! Click here to see more of our adult portrait photography.
