I always start with a grey card for color accuracy because it saves hours in editing. When you shoot for a brand, the client needs consistency across the entire lookbook, not just one perfect frame. In commercial projects, the shoot is a collaboration, not just a click. Whether I am shooting a jewellery lookbook or a corporate portrait, my process relies on clear communication. I use tethering for real-time review, letting clients see exactly what we are capturing on screen. This transparency prevents the guessing game later. Lighting is where the mood is built. I rarely chase trends, preferring organic light setups that highlight the product’s texture, whether it is the sheen of metal in a jewellery campaign or the drape of fabric in fashion. My commercial mentoring extends to the business side. I teach students how to build a rate card that reflects their actual value. You learn how to negotiate with ad agencies and brands so your art remains yours, even when the project is for someone else. We cover everything from positioning your portfolio to client negotiation, ensuring you spend less time worrying about the business and more time focusing on the shot. ## About Vidhi Thakur I am Vidhi.
