Remote Shoots with Gem

About


I'm Gem, a 5'9 model with 10 years experience. I have curly shoulder length red hair, and very pale skin. My figure is slim and toned.

I also work as a makeup artist, teaching at Central St Martins as well as on commercial sets.

I shoot lots of art nude, but I'm versatile - happy to shoot anything from edgy fashion, soulful portraits, ethereal pre-raphaelite inspired, helmut newton lingerie and more.

I am happy to style. I have an extensive wardrobe - from medieval dresses, vintage corsets, graceful robes, striking lingerie, sheer dresses. Happy to accommodate many ideas!


How it works


Imagine you are David Bailey directing assistants to do everything for you, while you keep creative control and steer the shoot. Remote shooting is very like that!


You connect to my computer, with my Full frame mirrorless camera tethered to it with live view on. Using Capture One, you can control the focus, camera settings, and press the shutter. 


We connect through a video call to communicate, and you can request posing, camera angle changes, styling changes, light changes. 


Remote shooting is slower than in person, and you do have to be more organised about the structure of a shoot, but the quality of the images are the same, as is the creative control you have. Its more akin to a film shoot, perfecting images at  that sort of pace.


After the images are shot, I will send you a dropbox link with them uploaded into. This will happen about an hour after the photoshoot for a 2 hour session. The longer the session, the more chance it will take a few hours to upload.

Studios available

I have a number of studios that I can use, with plenty for each budget. If you require something specific, feel free to email and ask if I can find a studio similar to your vision.

This studio is basic but brilliant to shoot in, has plenty of backdrop options and studio lighting (I also bring my own)

If you're interested in a portrait to half body shot, with simple lighting, this is a great and affordable option

This is a beautiful natural light studio with plenty of space to create, with epic big windows for those soft shots.

They also have an infinity curve and plenty of lighting.

An old factory, this studio is best if you're interested in quirky props, beautiful natural light and a myriad of colour and texture to inspire.
