Mrs. Matsuo Ayumi

by far one of the shortest photo shoot ever accomplished XD


usual photo shooting times would be around maybe... 1-2hours, but if you're a professional or super stubborn and ambitious model/photographer then you might go on for the whole day~ =)

for this day my mission was to take a picture of mrs. matsuo~ and never before have I met a girl more shy than me (I'm a guy) XD

she wanted a photoshoot, and I did my best~
Beginning stage was a little easy though when her attention was mainly drawn towards the phone and stuff~~

but when told her "you ready?" and when asked her to look towards the camera.. you could start to notice a redness flashing throughout her face~so mainly what she did was give a "hehe face" and turn around here and there, sometimes even putting the hand in front of the camera to block it, over shy-ed I guess =P



Then again... after erm... 9 minutes, I've thought maybe it was still too early to do a photoshoot, one reason was because I guess we weren't familiar with each other yet, and haven't build a trust to ask her to jump around and go crazy yet =P

My mistake~~

and I think it too is a very common mistake that most people make... just expecting the model to just "pose" right when you point the camera at them... but sometimes we still forget the most basic things that makes a picture nice~~

"TRUST"

I guess I rushed into it too fast without taking the time to sit down and talk and to know each other better to build the trust be make the shooting much more easier, and to make the other person feel comfortable about it~ etc etc.

not easy you know taking pictures!! Got alot of socializing work to do... only noticed this mistake when I noticed why my pictures weren't even improving at all... heee....

The things one can learn throughout every single shoot, and mistake that one makes... whew~~ but take everything as a learning process, and do better much more next time =)

but yeah la she memang shy also, but then her friends told me "HAR? She shy!?!??!!" so it makes you think~~~~ =]
