I start off with make-up, hair, accessories and clothes. This is more critical in black and white photography because people will see the design and that bright pink lipstick that looks so great in color will turn into muddy gray. I have also learned to use the camera’s viewfinder to look at the model so I can see what the camera sees. Also while going through this process, the model starts getting comfortable with me, and this is very important. I can’t emphasize enough how important each step is, and If one step is missing, the photo shoot is a waste of time for everybody.
