    love that you take photos of a wide range of diverse people - being an asian guy myself makes me happy to see this

    I always have had a hard time posing people and the idea of the mood board totally blew my mind. Love that advise

    This is some fantastic advice. I'm about to start getting into the world of portraits and I considering the idea of comfort before getting into the shoot. I think that is such an overlooked aspect that can make or break a photo session.

    Hey Samuel, first of all, I appreciate all the work you put into bringing out such informative content. Thanks for that :) I recently subscribed your channel and it's really helping me in some ways. I do plan to get into modeling some time soon and with your videos, I really feel confident. Along with your photography perspective, I really like the way you share posing information, modeling tips from your eyes (being a photographer). Makes things pretty clear! Also, love the fact that you mentioned, "you break the ice before the shoot while on the way". Sounds comfortable and definitely gonna make the shoot fun and interesting! Keep up man, looking forward to more and more content from your side, but no pressure, haha! You take your time :)
    Take care, Regards,
    Pratik

    Hi, I've watched about 25 hours of posing videos on YT in the last few weeks, and I thought maybe you could shed some light on this. Almost everyone focuses heavily on making people feel comfortable. In fact, its so harped on, on so many videos, the question comes to mind; is it abnormal to make people feel comfortable? Like, this everyone saying this because they worked with someone who was an A-hole photographer, or is it just standard advice? I'm curious for two reasons, one, as a new photographer it'd be good to know if it may be a potential issue in the future when working with others, and two, is it because almost all models are nervous and need this kind of reassurance? It would be good to know if people I will be working with will be generally confident and knowledgeable or if I'll be expected to lead the dance, so to speak.
    Thanks for your time if you read this, or if anyone else has an answer or opinion, I'd appreciate it.
