Questions

Is this real?

Yes. You talk with us in a private WhatsApp chat before any shoot, and you always see the brief first. You never pay anything to us.

Do I need a camera or a studio?

No. A phone with a working camera is enough. The guide shows you how to use window light and simple spots at home.

What kind of photos?

Clothed fashion and lifestyle photos: outfits, places you like, everyday moments. You always see the brief first and you can say no.

Will people at home see my photos?

No. Nyota Stars never shows a model's photos to visitors from her own country, and you work under a stage name.
