When a person being photographed is relaxed and in a good mood, she or he photographs better. It is easier to bring out the personality and get those hero shots.

An experienced photographer is able to work with the subject to make sure they are relaxed, enjoying themselves and not nervous. Bringing out the subject’s personality and style is important to the success of the end result.

Did you know your photographer’s personality is also important? If a subject feels comfortable around their photographer, this will show. A photographer who is relaxed, cheerful and can go with the flow will make for a less intimidating photo shoot. A photo shoot where the subject is not nervous will make for better photos in the end.

Try and get to know your photographer before your scheduled shoot. A phone call with a few questions can go a long way to ensure you feel comfortable when it comes time to shoot. Your photographer directs the photo shoot, including the general feeling. If they are relaxed, you will be too.

And, this comes from experience. An experienced photographer learns more than just his or her craft. They learn how to read people, relax people and ensure a person is comfortable.
