Photography Tips & Guides in Kenya by The Photoshoot Studio Kenya

Media Production Resources and Guides

The Photoshoot Kenya blog serves as a technical and logistical resource for clients planning media projects. We publish detailed guides on photography, videography, and live streaming to help you understand the production process. Our articles cover practical requirements, from securing location permits in Nairobi to understanding the internet bandwidth needed for a stable funeral live stream.

Photography Planning and Posing

A successful photo session relies on proper timing and preparation. Our photography section addresses specific scheduling challenges, such as the ideal week range for maternity shoots or how to manage graduation gown returns during peak season. We also provide posing direction for corporate teams and boudoir clients who may feel uncomfortable in front of the camera.

Videography and Live Streaming Specs

Broadcasting events requires specific technical knowledge. We explain the hardware and connectivity solutions necessary for professional streams. Topics include using cellular bonding for rural burials, integrating audio for hybrid corporate AGMs, and the differences between single-camera and multi-camera video productions. This information helps you select the right package for your event size.

Location Scouting and Permits

The choice of venue dictates the logistical requirements of a shoot. We review popular locations across Kenya, including Karura Forest, the Nairobi Arboretum, and private studios. Our guides detail current permit costs, parking availability, and accessibility for heavy equipment. We help you budget accurately by highlighting hidden costs associated with specific venues.

Preparation and Wardrobe Checklists

What you wear significantly impacts the final image quality. We provide specific wardrobe advice for different shoot types, avoiding moiré patterns in corporate headshots and selecting flattering fabrics for pregnancy sessions. These checklists ensure you arrive at the studio with the correct attire and props, minimizing delays and maximizing your shooting time.
