Robin V shares 3 steps to help photography businesses grow creatively and sustainably.

In the ever-evolving world of celebrity photography, one woman stands out among the rest - Robin V. With a distinct perspective, passion, and intuition, she redefines the art of capturing fame through her lens.

Hailing from Baltimore, Maryland, Robin’s journey into photography didn’t follow a traditional path. She left her hometown with nothing more than a one-way ticket, determination, and a dream to make it on her own terms.

Robin understands the importance of branding in this industry, particularly as a Black woman. She remarks, “From the beginning, I completely understood how important my branding would be to my business. That’s why I created a strategy that aligns with my vision and resonates with my target audience. I don’t show up to a photo shoot in sweatpants and a t-shirt. I come dressed to the nines, because I want to show that I am worth the premium price I charge. I want my commissioner and client to know that I shoot luxury and I am luxury.”

Monetizing one’s passion in such a competitive industry can be a difficult task. Robin remarks, “Many photographers struggle because they love what they do but don’t have systems in place to ensure profitability. I had to learn my value, and I didn’t learn it until I knew my value.”

To stay creative and inspired, Robin draws from a plethora of sources. Working as a model for music video directors like Hype Williams and Benny Boom, she became fascinated with the cameras and everything happening behind the scenes. She states, “I find inspiration in movies, social media, and even from other photographers. I constantly ask myself what lighting and lens is used, was this on a built set or in a studio, and what time of day is the shot. That’s what separates me from the pack.”

Robin V is redefining the art of celebrity photography, proving that passion and creativity can be balanced with profitability. With her distinct perspective, unwavering passion, and an eye for detail, she is sure to capture the moments that shape our collective cultural consciousness.
