PHOTOGRAPHER’S LOG : NOTE TO SELF, REMEMBER, ONE “IT’S OK,” WIPES OUT THREE “AWESOMES.”

DO THE RESHOOTS NOW !

When I’m wrapped up in the euphoria (or agony) of a shoot, I always do a mental check on myself. If I’m working the long lens, I try to imagine the shot with a wide lens from the other side of the room. Or more importantly, about a high or low angle. Always remember the last thing my partner Denise wants to see is a couple hundred frames shot from exactly the same position and attitude.  I can hear her now, “Move around. Think outside of the lens and light you are currently using.”

Remember, shooting two hundred frames with the same lens, the same light, and the same angle is, uh, let’s see, how shall I say this? Repetitive and lacking imagination? If you’re looking to create a modern-day amazon like this shot of the amazing Debbie Bramwell, get yourself down on the floor.
