[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 284441, member: 3903"] I order them and won't take no for an answer. Except for one person that just wouldn't give up. But seriously, I just tell them that it is for a book that I want to do about piano persons with their instrument. I mention that I don't know if it will ever be published, but at least it will be for my children to see the people that made me work. About being done up and ready, I only tell them at the last minute, just before they pay me. I tell them there is only the picture left to be done before they pay me. By the time they say what, I have the camera in hands and just tell them to " sit there, or stand over there" and then just click away. I rarely take more than 3 or 4 shots and it doesn't take long. It's not a photo session, but more like a candid shot. So, I guess since I don't make a big fuss with it and make it look just casual like if I was taking a souvenir shot, they agree. But some of them start worrying when they have to face the 24-70 2.8... :) [/QUOTE]
