Portfolio Development – Your real step into the professional fashion world
This 5-day course is designed to launch your career in fashion and beauty make-up by providing experience and material in real-world shooting conditions.
Introduction to the Business
The first day starts with a deep dive into the fashion industry. You’ll learn how photo shoots really work, how to navigate professional sets, and how to present yourself and your work as a true pro. We’ll also guide you through the essentials of managing your professional accounts and digital presence — everything from your online portfolio to your social media.
Throughout the course, each student becomes their own art director, responsible for designing and executing six original looks that reflect their creative identity. These looks will form your first professional business card: your portfolio.
Professional photo shooting
The next two days are fully dedicated to shooting. You’ll work with a complete creative team: experienced instructor, professional fashion photographer, stylist, and dedicated models — three different models per student, per day.
Each day, you will create three complete editorial looks (make-up + hair), for a total of six high-end images. You’ll experience the pace and pressure of real fashion productions, while expressing your creativity in a supportive environment.
Professional book
The images produced during this course will form your first professional portfolio. Together, we’ll carefully select and edit your best shots. You’ll also receive guidance on hashtags, credits, and how to build a consistent visual identity — so you can immediately begin promoting yourself on the market.
On the final day, we’ll review and analyze all work done, alongside the instructor and the photographer, to help you refine your creative vision and prepare for the next step in your career.
