Tip : angles and lines

We recently talked about lines in a shot, and this is actually the perfect addition to this.
Both these shots were taken during a recent workshop with our model Sheena.

Now when you’re shooting something like this you often sit down, aim your camera, make the composition, coach the model and shoot. The thing is….. during the workshop I asked the attendees which one they like the most, and don’t be surprised there were some that absolutely didn’t like the image below, but loved the image on top (I asked them forget about the pose, just the lines in the background), and of course some loved the one below (I’m also one of them).

Now as you might have guessed there is of course a reason I post this as a tip vlog.
When you shoot a scene like this, don’t just sit down and coach your model and take the shot….. no…. also make sure you take note of those leading lines, because they could make or break your shot. So check with your client or yourself what you really like the most. Or even better shoot all options 😀
