TILT Concept + On-Site Photography


"Tilt" is a term in photography.   

I am not a photographer so I shall not get into the nitty-gritty definition of the term, but "Tilt" is related to the lens angle that overcomes restrictions of depth of field and perspective.  It has something to do with the beautiful effect of selective focusing, and much, much more, I'm sure.

Now this blog will be written from the perspective of an Art Director/Production Designer/Stylist.  Mind you, it's still mostly about Photography.  But I felt with today's trend where everyone has turned into Photography , and anybody can claim to be a photographer, I felt that my partners and I should heavily infuse our "captured images" with a lot of production value.  It is always a conscious effort on our part to be more unique and exciting with our product offers.  I don't mean to sound business-y, but my partners and I all share the same thinking that a good photograph is not only because it has good lighting.  A big chunk that contributes to a photo's aesthetic is Production Design.

Hence, TILT was born.

WHO IS TILT

Tilt is a creative team that consists of photographers, production designers, fashion stylists, make-up and hairstylists.  Tilt will visit you in your very own homes, or in a location of your choice, with the intentions of capturing your story in a very unique concept.  We will art direct your lifestyle/editorial shoot.  It may be "Moulin Rouge", "Wong Kar Wai", or "Stepford Wives" type of art direction.  Or possibly going the classic, minimal style of  "The Gap".   Definitely, your photo albums will look like magazine pages, or something like the "behind-the-scenes" images of a hit movie.

HOW WE WORK

It all starts with an ocular inspection of the client's choice of venue for the shoot. If you already have a concept or a theme for the shoot, let us know right away so we can help you achieve a certain look through lighting and production design.  A brainstorm between Tilt and clients results to the concept.  And this concept is carried thoughout the production (in the props, wardrobe and hair/makeup styling). 

It is so much fun preparing for the actual shoot.  A lot of creativity is poured onto planning the actual day.  We will be doing a lot of brainstorms and coordination to make sure everything flows smoothly.  We will email you our guidelines for shooting, so we're all aligned as to what will take place during the shoot. If babies or kids are involved, let us know too when the "best time" is for them to shoot, considering nap times and feeding.


OUR PRODUCT

After the Tilt  shoot, clients get all hi-resolution shots of all the good takes in a CD. And best of all, their very own "concept book" - beautifully art directed photographs of them or their family, retouched and color-graded and creatively laid out on hardbound pages like a coffee table book.

Check our blog pages to see our storybooks.  



RATES

Because everything is custom-fit for your shoot, our rates are not fixed. But just to give you an idea, our packages start at P16,000 which includes:
  • Conceptualizing
  • A three-hour shoot in your choice of location
  • Three lighting set-ups
  • A creative concept book of all retouched images laid out in 20 hard-bound pages
Prices will vary depending on number of shooting hours, number of talents, distance of location, special requirements for props or wardrobe, production staff required to be present - If a wardrobe stylist, art director, a makeup artist or hairstylist is needed.  
Packages are unique to every client so it would be difficult to state definite rates this early.  

We welcome all inquiries and we will be happy to discuss your shoot requirements with you. Please feel free to contact us at tilt.ph@gmail.com for inquiries and bookings.
Or text or call 09175148193.
Thank you and hope to hear from you soon!


Cheers,
