photoshoots
Scheduled camera sessions
Photoshoots are sessions where a photographer takes planned photographs of a subject—typically a model, celebrity, product, or location.
The term implies preparation and intent, distinguishing it from casual snapshots: The magazine arranged a photoshoot for the cover story.
Also spelled as two words: photo shoots.
