We are pleased to present a shooting request list reflecting clients’ requirements and the latest trends.


[Public Safety & International Crime Issues]

Recently, incidents threatening public safety have occurred frequently both domestically and internationally, raising societal anxiety. Accordingly, there is an increasing demand for images that symbolically represent accidents, incidents, and social crises. Rather than simply showing shocking scenes, images with condensed and symbolic expression are highly versatile.



Planning Points:

  • Use silhouettes or shadows to symbolize anxiety and crises

  • Express uneasy emotions through the contrast between a child’s silhouette and an adult’s shadow

  • Capture young adults from behind with luggage in international airport or overseas city backgrounds

  • Include objects symbolizing crisis situations, such as warning signs, emergency bells, or police tape

  • Show a lone, fallen doll on a park bench or in a corner of an alley

  • Use a globe or map with warning marks

Keywords: safety, abduction, kidnapping, crisis, tension, overseas, international crime, shadow, silhouette, warning, police tape


[2026 Trend Color – Transformative Teal]

WGSN and Coloro have selected Transformative Teal as the color of the year 2026. This hue combines deep blue with aqua-green teal, symbolizing change, stability, and regeneration. It is expected to be a key color across fashion, interior, graphics, packaging, and more in 2026.


 

Planning Points:

  • Use props and scenes with sustainability themes

  • Create beauty images featuring cosmetic containers

  • Shoot interior images using furniture and tone-on-tone objects

  • Apply as a fashion accent in portrait photography

Keywords: Transformative Teal, teal, accent color, interior, fashion, beauty, technology, nature, mood, trend


[Year-End Season – Religious Symbols & Calm Atmosphere]

Year-end is a time to reflect on the past year and prepare for a new beginning. Images should incorporate religious symbolism without emphasizing any particular religion, focusing instead on peace and contemplative serenity.



Planning Points:

  • Softly illuminated incense smoke and floating lanterns in dark, calm settings

  • Walking alone on a snow-covered forest path in the early winter morning, using calm tones of white and gray, conveying peace and tranquility

  • A warm cup of tea by a window with frosted glass, soft morning light streaming in, creating a calm and reflective mood

  • Candles on a table with soft, warm light texture

  • Use Bible, candles, or praying hands to evoke meditative or spiritual scenes

Keywords: year-end, prayer, meditation, candle, temple, church, mosque, peace, serenity, New Year, silhouette


[Simple Objects – Minimal Style]

Object-focused images are consistently utilized in branding, advertising, and design. Create minimal-style images by removing unnecessary elements and emphasizing form and color.



Planning Points:

  • Use a solid-color background (white, pastel, neutral tones) to emphasize the subject

  • Feature single materials such as fruit, ceramics, glass, or sculptural objects

  • Center the subject, maintain balanced composition, and use ample negative space

  • Use folded or crumpled paper (paper art) to create minimal yet three-dimensional textures

  • Keep minimal shapes but add unrealistic accent colors for playful and surreal effects

  • Emphasize form and texture with soft diffused lighting

Keywords: minimal, still life, solid background, object, form, texture, balance, close-up, pattern
