That "Oh ja ja ja ja ja" is legendary. I know I needed some of these info because I am guilty as charged.

[Aleksanderespelid]

As a photographer, I usually dont like telling my mdoels if I am shooting full body, half body, if legs are in etc. Because often then the model can forget to move. For example if they know the legs are not in the photo, they can become stiff, which affects the whole pose. Not just the legs. So I tell them to move around as they please, use their legs and arms and rather tell them when not to use their legs and hands. I also zoom in and out and move around alot, so it can change from half to full body real fast.

Model photographer to model photographer, you do the best job.

It's really nice to hear someones experience who has been on both sides and got many experiences from there! Truly a nice short video with tons of information! Well done

[michaeltriolo]

Thank you so much! This is really useful information. Adding a mood board to the mix is going to be a game changer for me. I love your enthusiasm and excitement. I think I just took the top spot in the Faye fan club.

[robinbollens]

great information! Although I have to say, I feel it is easier for a woman to contact and connect with models than for a male photographer. (Being somewhat introverted doesn't help either 😅) Definitely going to try some of these tips to make some extra connections! Thanks!

[williamhenrytaylor]

all good advice. Ive been working with models for over 10 years now. Communication and respect are the two main keys. thank you for an awesome video

[lifesbeautiful]

You were a most beautiful teen model and a beautiful adult as well. And great video here…with good pointers, especially the idea of communicating the feel of what we’re trying to get in the way of mood in the photos

[BrandonWoelfel]

Love your take on this from being behind the camera and in front of it!

[chriskuroda]

Really good info for those of us looking for models. It has been difficult to just find models to work with in the first place. When I do find one, I need to bring music that THEY like. Not just old 80's hits for me to enjoy... lol!

I always admire photographers who work with models, have good communication, and can put the model at ease. I liked working with models. But, I didn't think I was particularly good at it.

[bmwblondie]

Super helpful video! I have always admired how beautifully you work with the models - you can always tell they feel relaxed on your shoots!

[LeoR-eh]

Once again an informative aspect of your techniques during a shoot, your totally right, I was photo editor for my college paper, coving sporting events also models for local businesses in the city. I would have taking your photos and enjoying your company. Looking forward to see your next video, take care.
Leo ❤

echt leuk om te zien hoe je met zoveel passie praat over fotografie! keep it up!

[rolandswales]

Great video, love your enthusiasm when you take an awesome image. When shooting indoors I shoot wirelessly to a surface pro laptop so model can see images. We quickly review after a set too.

[WithVictorZen]

It was exactly this video that I needed, it always seems easy but there will always be an obstacle, and I always have difficulties in certain parts. I think this video will help a lot of people, both photographers and videographers, and it's the best videoooo❤❤❤❤

[fotokrabbe]

Leuk om je steeds zo enthousiast te zien Faye. Ben het helemaal eens met je tips.
