Camera as prop, a tip

It’s often a problem to keep coming with good ideas, we all know the feeling of……. uhm…….. yeah……. so……… pfffff…….. yeah let’s do that….. or not.
Get that feeling also sometimes?
Who doesn’t 😀

 

 

Sometimes it’s easy to fix, just give the model something to play with, but what?

 

 

I found out that I loved it when my models posed with cameras, old and new, actually on www.frankdoorhof.smugmug.com I have a whole album with shots I did over the past year or so with cameras.

So the next time you’re stuck (or have a model that’s a bit stiff or unexperienced) give him/her a camera to play with. One final tip… make sure you tell the model how to hold it.
