Shoot from different angles

Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn’t

But you should always try it.
Shoot from different angles, including during warm-ups, and always treat the shots as if they are real.
In most cases, these images are great for behind-the-scenes fun, memories, etc., but sometimes, you end up with something really special.

Somehow, I just love this shot from Claudia, I shot while explaining the lighting setup.
For me, it tells a story.

During the workshops, I always tell people to walk around the model for shots from different angles. It’s always “surprising” how cool some of the angles can be when you see them. But sometimes you don’t expect it to look cool. Like in the next shot, where I was actually explaining that, probably due to the way the model was posing, the shot from that angle would look really awkward. But somehow the shadows fell right. The pose works, and I endedup totally loving the shot.

So ALWAYS take images from different angles, even if you don’t think it’s going to work 😀
You might surprise yourself and your model/client.
