What is Lifestyle Photography?
Lifestyle photographs are images that depict people or things in a real-life situation. It can be people drinking coffee in a restaurant, a piece of furniture in a living room, a woman applying cosmetics with a pure white background. Essentially, lifestyle images depict a person or thing in a real-life situation.

Lifestyle photographs are mainstream
Amazon and eCommerce merchants have made lifestyle photographs mainstream. Like infographics, lifestyle photos can demonstrate the functionality, benefits, applications, and prestige of a product. Moreover, many merchants such as Costco or Wayfair now require or prefer vendors to provide lifestyle images.

Realism is contextual when creating a lifestyle image.
With the creative use of graphics, the need for expensive studio sets and models can be avoided. A good lifestyle image is measured by its impact, not it’s a degree of realism. This is an important consideration because shooting offsite can get very expensive very fast.

With a creative use of graphics, Jules Design can subvert the need for costly models and studio sets.
Finding or building a shoot-location, plus setting up gear can get tedious. If time is money, cost overruns can easily occur. When planning lifestyle images, it is best to have a realistic idea of your budget and what you want to convey; from there, you can better assess your options.

Models for Lifestyle Photography Projects
Having models is often a necessary component for lifestyle photograph; fortunately, there are many ways to get great talent. Commercial modeling agencies, friends, family and even you can be a great source for models. If you need other sources, many freelance models advertise on Facebook, Instagram or Kijiji. These professionals can range from amazing to not so good; that said, their rates and usage terms are always much better than those offered by agencies.
Meeting the model before the shoot is always a good idea. You absolutely want to make sure they are a good fit for the job. Moreover, we recommend that you pay the models since people are more reliable when they are compensated.

Agencies are reliable but expensive
Agencies often deliver reliable talent but they are very expensive. Moreover, they tend to commit clients to annoying copyright restrictions. This means you need to ask (and pay) every-time you want to use or re-use the model’s photos. To many business owners, these restrictions are irritations and they prefer to avoid them as much as possible.

Ideas to save money for lifestyle photographs:

Stock Art
There are numerous paid and free sites that offer stock photos. Use these images and re-purpose them to fit your lifestyle photography needs. With a little creativity, using these images can save you time and money over orchestrating your own lifestyle photos.

Doing your own photos
If you choose to make your own lifestyle photos, quality is important. Appropriate lighting, white-balancing, exposure, and composition matter. Poor images can undermine your product’s credibility. So it’s important to note that smartphone cameras usually cannot produce the quality of a proper DSLR. For this reason, use a proper camera when producing your lifestyle images.

Legal consideration when producing lifestyle images
*Protect yourself from legal peril when creating lifestyle images. The following are some considerations to make when creating lifestyle images:

Photo-shoots in public places
Many public locations (such as malls and airports) do not permit camera work without written permission. Some locations require fees or simply prohibit photography or video recording outright. Subverting appropriate authorization could subject you to legal jeopardy. Before executing your project in any public or private location, know the rules and seek the appropriate permits as required. Failing to do so may put you at unnecessary risk.

Model Release Forms
If you plan to use people in your lifestyle images, you will need them to sign a model release form. This document is a contract that gives you the permission to publish their face for commercial use. There is no sense in doing a photo shoot if the model will not allow you to use their photo.

The model release form may outline the compensation and usage terms of the modeling agreement. Aspects in the form may include how the image will be used, expiry dates and more. If you plan to produce your own lifestyle images, the onus is on you to keep and preserve the agreement in the event of a dispute.

Copyright
With the wealth of images available on the web, be sure to use images with the allotted permissions. Using someone else’s art without their authorization is a breach of copyright and akin to theft. To minimize exposure, use your own images or acquire them from a stock art sites with the appropriate licenses.
