Urban Edge Fashion & Atomic Milano

Four models, three tee-shirt designs and the urban landscape.

That was our Atomic Milano fashion shoot in a nutshell. The shots were made as atmospherics for an online catalogue to sell the exclusive Atomic Milano Tee-Shirts. The Atomic coffee machine is a 50’s design classic and in the days before cafĂ© style espresso machines became so affordable they are now seemingly in every kitchen; the Atomic was the stove top coffee machine of choice.

Street and Urban Fashion, Atomic Tee-Shirt

An edgy urban setting was chosen that allowed for some nice variations without having to move around too much. The client required enough variety to allow for rotation of images on the web site over time to keep the site looking fresh while staying on-theme so the images will all blend well with each other. We started out with an outdoor studio approach laying down the new 3.2 x 12 meter vinyl white background on the roadway. Our new white ‘floor’ blended nicely with the low graffiti smattered concrete wall creating a neutral space for the models to work in and highlight the Atomic Milano Tee-Shirt.

It was decided that the casting for the models should reflect the world-wide universal appeal of the Atomics design & coffee too. If my enthusiastic directing was anything to go by, I may well have had one coffee too many that morning. But the mood was infectious and the models picked up on the Atomic Milano coffee high and delivered great energy for the shoot. The approach to the photography and fashion seems highly suitable for youth market and surf wear; don’t hesitate to call me with any inquires about shooting your fashion line.

  1. If you are interested in automatic coffee machines that are affordable then look no further than http://www.purebean.com.au/ for a great range of Saeco machines. These machines are comparative to the Atomic coffee machine only relate to today needs for a coffee machine that create top quality coffee. By the way I really love the clothing that is presented in the photos that you have provided, keep up the good work.. Thank you for the post.
