Many people imagine a business photo shoot to be much more uncomfortable than it actually is. In reality, it’s usually a pretty relaxed affair.
We often start with a cup of coffee, talk about the visual impact and how the photos will be used, and take a look at the location together. Then, step by step, we take the first photos. No pressure. No stress.
We often switch outfits, locations, or lighting setups in between shots. Sometimes the best photos even turn out right in between the actual scenes. Many clients say at the end, “I never would have thought I’d actually enjoy this.”
And that, to me, is one of the nicest compliments . Because good photos rarely come about under pressure. Instead, they usually happen when people are allowed to just be themselves.
