I have had a few clients who have been a little shy/uneasy about being photographed (husbands dragged along by wifes, for one <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />), and I really really, really wanna be able to make these people feel good about themselves - but how to do this? I said stuff like, you look so great on picures, this is really good, etc.   I just try to explain where to be at a specific area, stand/sit/lean, look this or that way, play with you baby or maybe lift him - and then I actually dont really say more... but this isn't enough to help apparently. I also feel instructing to much makes the image a little weird, as they aren't acting like themselves then. My photography are about moments, which is sooo hard to catch, if the person are very shy. Have thought a lot about starting out with some form for activities, but its a bit hard to figure out what they should do as what one would find funny, another would maybe feel really bad about.. Thinking about rope jumping, playing a kids game, something easy but hopefully could get them laughing.Hope to hear from you all, everybody working with grown ups. Not only pro, I just didn't know where else to place this subject. Kids are really much easier!</blockquote>
