Quaker Factoroy Shoots

So far, I have also been included in two shoots with women's international fashion brand Quaker Factory. Quaker Factory sells women's clothes through their own website as well as QVC and other vendors. Working with this brand in particular is great experience for me as I aspire to be a fashion photographer. Learning more and more about different lighting techniques, and learning to work with other artist to complete the look you and your client are going for was great for me to learn within these types of shoots. The work hours for these shoots ranged between 10-12 hours. For the shoots, we were taking portraits of models showing off new Quaker Factory material for their online web-store as well as QVC. The usual lighting setup was two lights with large soft-boxes with grids attached on both sides of the seamless on about a 45 degree angle hitting the seamless, and a B1 with a large umbrella in front of the seamless.

No matter what, I could be sure safety was taken into consideration when working with Kay. This is something I think would be good for other artists to practice as well. Kay always talked to be about toxicity of materials, of their grading levels, and that she had nothing above the second least toxicity level in her studio (the vegetable-based screen cleaner that I talked about using with screen reclaiming in the last post). This is something that she was in touch with when working as an educator, in addition to her own persona interest in a green artistic practice, life, and world. In addition to being conscious about chemical safety, Kay would always be sure I had personal protective equipment if I was doing anything that posed a risk. While reclaiming screens, I used gloves, eye protection, and ear protection. Any time I used Kay’s armature wire, I had to have gloves on due to some chemical that California declared as dangerous when handled with bare skin. I al...

Art Restoration with Kat and Megan: Weeks 1 and 2 The best thing about being an artist interning at an art restoration company is joining while already understanding the basic nature of an oil painting or an inkjet print. The worst part is being absolutely terrified to rub a canvas with a sponge. Although art restoration is not my ultimate career goal, this internship has been extremely beneficial and enjoyable so far, and I recommend art restoration as a jumping-off point for other artists.  I’ve been learning the beginning to the end of art restoration, including packaging the pieces to return to the owners and the fact that removing smoke from a damaged painting using a chem sponge (a sponge particularly good at picking up particles) actually does not harm the piece. Art restoration is about returning a damaged piece of art to its original state as best as possible, and reducing the chance for further damage by re-sealing the art so that it’s dust and mold fr...
