Posing the Subject - preparation

  Meet face to face in a relaxed situation with plenty of time and a minimum of distractions

  Ask the client to collect ideas and samples to indicate the image and style of the photograph

  Ask lots of questions and take a few notes

  Be genuinely interested in your subject

  Find at least one really positive feature - hair, eyes, muscles, dress sense or their sense of humour.

When the subject leaves this meeting, they should be excited at the prospects of the shoot and confident that you are going to look after their every need and produce great results.

 

 

 

 

 

Communicating during the shoot


  Be thoroughly prepared

  Be confident, warm and reassuring

  You need to take the lead role - be positive!
