The industry

What makes fashion photography at a fair different

At trade fairs, fashion is sold to buyers who see many collections in a short time. Your images therefore have two jobs: carry the mood of a collection and show the details that convince in the showroom, such as cut, drape, finishing and material. We photograph stands and presentations with an eye for both and use light that gives fabric depth instead of flattening it.

Movement is the strongest tool. A bridal gown opening as the model walks, fabric falling, a model turning: these moments work harder on video and in short clips than in any still. We film runway and stand presentations from several positions and cut vertical clips from them.

New collections are often under embargo or must not appear online before the official presentation. Tell us in advance which pieces may be shown when, and we deliver in stages.

Shows

The fashion and textile fairs we work at

European Bridal Week takes place at Messe Essen, our home venue, with our office 30 seconds from the entrance. Heimtextil in Frankfurt shows home and contract textiles, TecStyle Visions in Stuttgart textile finishing, printing and embroidery. Jewellery and watches are at INHORGENTA in Munich, eyewear at opti in Munich, baby and children's products at Kind + Jugend in Cologne. Textile promotional products are a major topic at PSI in Cologne.

In Essen and Cologne travel is included. For Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Munich we quote it once per trip, shared between exhibitors of the same show week. Designers and manufacturers from Turkey, Italy, Spain or the Gulf get an English-speaking crew and, outside the EU, invoices without German VAT.

Beyond trade fairs we photograph and film retail events. We have worked for brands and retailers such as Primark and Ralph Lauren, including the film for the opening of Primark in Wuppertal.

Show day

What we shoot, and when

Before doors open: stand overview, the collection on mannequins and rails, fabric and finishing details with our own light. Morning: team photo, portraits of designers and founders, first buyer appointments.

At fixed times: runway or stand presentations, filmed from several positions. Afternoon: interviews, conversations on the stand, vertical clips with movement.

At European Bridal Week shows and order appointments are tightly scheduled. Send us the plan and we build the booking around your presentation.

Formats

Formats for buyers, retail and social media

After the show, fashion brands need material for several channels: stand images and collection details for buyers and sales agents, mood images for newsletters and the website, vertical clips for Instagram and TikTok. We deliver all of it from one booking, with unlimited usage rights.

Vertical 9:16 clips come with every package, three with Full Day. We cut runway and stand presentations so they hold attention in the first seconds, as Reels and Shorts demand.

Interviews with designers, founders or your sales team tell the story behind the collection, in English, German, Arabic or Farsi. Everything is ready within 24 hours after the show ends, while buyers still have your collection in mind.

FAQ

Questions about fashion and textile trade fair photography

Can you film runway and stand presentations?

Yes. We film from several positions and cut vertical clips and a highlight film. For shows on the organiser's stages we clarify permission in advance.

Do you respect embargoes on new collections?

Yes. You tell us which pieces may be shown when, and we deliver in stages. Nothing appears early.

Which fashion brands have you worked with?

We have worked for brands and retailers such as Primark and Ralph Lauren. At trade fairs we photograph exhibitors of every size.

How do fabrics get depth in show photos?

With light that shows texture and drape, and careful colour correction. Detail shots use our own light when the stand allows it.

What does a show day cost?

Fixed prices plus VAT: €990 for two hours, €1,490 for four hours and €1,990 for a full show day with interviews and a 90-second film. Travel is included in Düsseldorf, Essen, Cologne and Dortmund; for other cities we quote it once per trip.

When do we get the photos and the film?

Within 24 hours after the show ends, first photos usually the same day. Two revision rounds are included and usage rights are unlimited.
