Oh man, when things pick up, they pick up all the way lately. Anyway, I spent the weekend photographing some school musicals and I can’t really share those photos here then I followed it up by doing an actress headshot session which aren’t done cooking yet. Here are a few photos I did a while back.
Do not be afraid to try and get a range of emotions. Sometimes you will be stuck with serious, and serious is fine if you make that seriousness look sharp. However, a real laugh will always be before a real smile. Toddlers tend to be easier to get to laugh so I tell older subjects to try and think of things that make them happy in preparation for the session. If that falls through, then we go for serious or sad and work from there. Sometimes you just need to let the subject see that yes, they do look awesome, before they can relax and start to get a real smile.
Anyways, I got more processing to do and planning. I may have a major session to share soon but I’m finding it’s a more complicated photo session then I first thought so we will see.
