Photography as an art form never ceases to amaze with its new beginnings. She, like fine art has its own styles and trends that can be recognized in photographs.
The formation of styles occurs under the influence of various factors - this is the shooting technique, composition, color and much more. Since the advent of photography, the styles that exist along with the styles of fine art have undergone changes, and new ones have also appeared. Regardless of the style in which the photographer works, he always differs in originality from other photographers working in the same style.
Photographs in retro style, with their tones and special form, seem to return to the time of the birth of photography as an art, to a time filled with sophistication and genuineness of feelings. Not only in black and white or with a gray-brown tint, but also in color, it contains mystery.
Modern photographers do not reproduce everything thoroughly in their photographs, but only maintain the style of the era in them. Modernly interpreted, created with the help of fashion models, they bear the imprints of history, while at the same time embodying a new, more sophisticated style. To create a photo in this style, photographers use photographic materials for low-sensitivity black-and-white photography, the addition of color is carried out only with low-key, soft shades and halftones, making full use of all the possibilities of modern photographic equipment for this.
Photo in retro style is not just processing of the taken photo - its "aging". Recreating on it the interior, furnishings and accessories corresponding to the style of the time in which the photograph is taken is mandatory for such photographs. Most often, the expressiveness of the era is manifested in the make-up of the model, and the most difficult part of it is the eyes, which should be expressive. As for hairstyles in retro style, they are most often represented by wavy curls, the length of which is not of particular importance, laid in a hairstyle. Typical for retro hairstyles is a straight or side parting. Only excellent make-up that matches the style and the right hairstyle allow you to move on to creating an image with the help of emotions. A distinctive feature of photography in retro style from artistic photography is precisely the creation of an image that reflects the era.
The image of the model in the photograph, made in the style of the 20s, will be a flat-chested, angular girl with flat hips and meekly cut hair, which is most often straight, going down to the face, or covered with waves or small curls. The make-up of the model in the style of this time looks defiantly bright, and the clothes allow you to open your legs as much as possible and bare your back, that is, to be extravagant, but no less exquisitely refined.
Photographs in retro style, reflecting the period of the 50s Goths, differ sharply from the above photographs in the image of the model. These are already busty, with rounded body shapes - “hourglass” girls in heeled shoes emphasizing the shape of the figure. If the image of a girl of the 20s is brunette girls, then in the 50s they are burning blondes.
Nowadays, the topics for amateur photo shoots are not limited to the already familiar genres from the category of a standard photo walk or ordinary shooting in a studio. Perhaps this explains the constant growth in the popularity of genre photography among ordinary people. Now the embodiment of non-standard images within the framework of a photo shoot has become a kind of subculture not only among young people, but also among older people. In this article, we will touch on the basic rules for a retro photo shoot that will help you bring it to perfection.
Peculiarities
The ideal situation is if the shooting style is displayed both in the scenery and in the image, but, unfortunately, can often let down both the first and the second. Therefore, it is worth considering the nuances of a photo shoot of this genre, built both at the expense of the image and the scenery. But first, a few words about the style itself.
Retro can be attributed to the temporary trends of almost the entire XX century, starting from the 20s, the time of the first jazz, and ending with the hot disco eighties.
In this time period, you already choose the topic for yourself. It is worth noting that, despite the fact that retro covers a decent layer of history, more often under it they represent the 50s - the time of Marilyn Monroe. It is her image that leads among the most embodied.
In second place is the style of silent film actresses - the “femme fatale” style (20-30s) - styling-wave, vamp makeup, veil, gloves, mouthpiece and, of course, a touch of tragedy in her eyes.
Third place - the rock wave of the 70s - leather, punk style, freedom in movements and poses.
Fourth place - hot eighties or disco.
Image
The image is the main component of any photo shoot. It is due to a well-designed image that you can “pull out” any genre, regardless of the scenery. When choosing retro for a photo shoot, you need to consider what you want. It is extremely important not to mix different time categories in your image. For example, it is not uncommon for a mistake where, due to inexperience, a black leather jacket of the 70s is able to “get through” into the image of the 20s (retro dress). The same applies not only to clothes, but also to makeup and hairstyles. Even some poses can be purely in the same style. For example, Monroe's famous pose, where the hem of her dress flutters, can no longer be used in any other genre.
It is necessary to place the main emphasis on the development of the image in a photo session when you have a problem with the rest of the entourage and scenery, in other words, if the photo session is held in a studio. You can compensate for the lack of scenery with the help of studio effects. So, gray smoke is suitable for a rock image, for disco this smoke can be illuminated simultaneously with different lights and you get a bright entourage, plus add fans to everything. For the image of a silent movie, it is better to initially carry out a photo shoot with semi-dimmed light on a dark background and, if desired, convert the pictures to black and white.
Scenery
When there are no problems with the decorations, it is necessary to take into account an important rule - they must also be designed in only one style. The entire photo shoot should now be based on the principle of interior, object or landscape photography - where the main role is the setting, and the model must only fit beautifully into it, without pulling the main role over to herself.
The scenery is not only rooms furnished in a retro genre, this includes a lot, from cars to city streets, which have fully preserved the styling required for a photo shoot.
Before the start of the photo session, it is advisable to once again critically assess the situation and, before it is too late, remove / add the required elements. It is important not to overload the scenery thematically. Otherwise, in total with the image of the model, you get a real "mess".

Poses for a photo shoot
It is advisable to choose dynamic-playing poses in the “stop a moment” style - in dancing, talking and playing cards, feasting (raising glasses), a girl at a dressing table, reading a book, walking by a pond, etc. But all poses should be natural and saturated with the energy of that time.
