Glamour Photoshoot with Kat
Kat was an interesting person. It was difficult to judge her personality at first when she appeared to be nonchalant and quiet. I was unable to showcase my usual cold jokes to try to make her feel more relaxed since I did not want to step on her toes. I was probably being over cautious, nevertheless, she was spared from my irritants.
We met a Samaritan on the way who gave us a free ride to the planned shooting location but a few of the buildings were already under renovation and we decided to change to another abandoned campus nearby. Luck was not with us since it was a rainy day and the mosquitoes were out to breed while we bled.
Kat did her makeup and hair by herself. It was not a fantastic job but enough to cover her tiny flaws, which was a privilege to me, such that a minimal touch-up job was required.
Doing sexy shoots was a great challenge for me as a male photographer. It was rather sensitive and I got to show the model I was mainly interested in getting some artwork done and had no intention of taking advantage of her. Another big challenge was that although the outfits were sexy, the model should not be displaying sexy expressions and poses for this theme. Fortunately, Kat was extremely easy-going, cooperative and open to ideas.
I could have played more with my lighting since I had all my gears with me, but the mosquitoes did not welcome us and thus I did not set up my second light stand. The place was also very dirty and nobody would want to stay for long.
We built trust through the shoot. She began to open up more and share her beliefs with me. Although her theories such as different dimensions of life massacred my brain cells, I was fascinated by her uniqueness. I was happy that she was sharing her thoughts with me, knowing that I had made a new friend through photography again. I loved her being straightforward and honest. Most of all, I was thankful for her trust in me.
