SCENA Staging

There's a particular kind of confidence that doesn't need to raise its voice. Walking into a space staged by Ola Mochol, founder of SCENA Staging, you feel it immediately, because nothing shouts, nothing performs and yet every corner feels resolved. It's the quiet strength SCENA has built its name on.

This was the philosophy behind this brand photoshoot: true taste doesn’t need to be loud.

“It was such a pleasure and creative joy to work with you Agnes! You are a dream photographer! Thank you a million times!”

— Ola

Your Weight Won’t Be the Biggest Problem During Your Photoshoot - This Will

Your weight won’t be the biggest problem during a photoshoot. Your need for control will be.

At the beginning of the photoshoot you may feel the need to see all photos we’re capturing. Then you’ll see something: a double chin, an arm you don’t love or a weird clothing bump and suddenly you’re analyzing every photo instead of being present.

Here’s the thing: that photo isn’t finished. You’re looking at RAW footage, not the final image. Retouching is part of my full-service photography, so those little details can be fixed later. What I’m chasing during the shoot are the things I can’t create in post production: authentic expression, beautiful light, natural movement and genuine connection.

What should you do instead?

1. Choose a photographer whose work you love. Look at their portfolio. If you love how they pose and photograph (and retouch!) people, trust them to do the same for you.

2. Stop judging the RAW image. Let your photographer worry about the details. You’re seeing a work in progress, not the finished product.

3. Stay in the moment. Follow direction, move, laugh, breathe and let yourself be photographed. Your job isn’t to control the shoot. Your job is to be the muse.

After 13 years, I can tell you this: the clients who trust me and let me do my job are the ones who walk away with photos they love.

Book your shoot. Show up as you are. Let me handle the rest.

Michelle

Brand Photoshoot number 2 with Michelle!

Our first brand photoshoot together, Michelle trusted the process and those photos ended up carrying her brand for 5 years. This time around was even more fun: comfortable, easy, at home. We shot right in her space, fur babies included (obviously the real stars)

It's one of my favorite parts of this job: watching people go from unsure to totally at ease in front of the camera and there's something bigger happening too, because once someone realizes they can do a hard thing like this, they tend to go after their goals with even more confidence.

“I had a fantastic experience working with Agnes at Pure Studios! As someone who generally doesn’t enjoy getting their picture taken, I was impressed by how relaxed and confident she made me feel throughout the entire session. She truly made the process feel effortless, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend!”

“Agnes is singularly gifted at bringing out the best in her subjects. She guided me confidently and warmly through what is often, for me, an anxiety-laden process of being photographed. I am thrilled with the results, so many beautifully executed photographs that seem to capture my authentic self while making me look both comfortable and fantastic! Thank you, Agnes for your unique talent and discerning eye. From start to finish, it was a perfect experience!”
