kim williamsPye, I think the thing that made the moment so awkward was the silence during the process of setting up the shot. Does saying something to the client like ” let me take a couplet of test shots to get the lighting perfect, and then proceed to adjust and keep the dialog going so they are included in the process

Pye, you couldn’t stress this out more than before. Yet I am in agreement 12345%, this happens in “Model” shoots too, not just normal clients. If they are not in their mood, their emotion won’t show in a picture. Here we are expecting “PROFESSIONAL MODELS” to be who they are, but they are the same as us… “HUMANS”.
