read more7 Tips for Interacting with People to Create Better Portraits
A Post By: William Petruzzo Interaction is the basis of a portrait session, in every single way. In the most obvious ways, for example, you must interact with the client to set up the session, during the session, and when the images are done.

Without wanting to sound like a dickhead (that may be a first, it’s true 🙂 ) – it must be very difficult to please everyone with sample pictures, but these really, really don’t do anything for the camera, in terms of expectations, because, frankly, the IQ is quite horrendous on most of these (at least to my ancient geriatric eyes).
