This special spot in the Pali rainforest in Hawaii has contributed many of my favorite photos to my albums. The overcast sky provided diffused light which matches the peaceful, melancholy mood of this photo. The large rock has a slightly rough look against the beauty of the model. I asked the model to lay on the rock as comfortably and naturally as she could to achieve a not forcefully posed photo. Sometimes I adjust the “natural pose” if something does not look right but sometimes it is good to give up that total control and just let things unfold.
It is a good idea to find out from the model during the first meeting or phone interview which type of photo session she prefers: more or less direction. Some models want to be directed as much as possible regarding poses and facial expressions. I find that a big turn off because it usually means lack of improvisation skills, lack of ease in front of the camera, lack of self confidence, lack of talent and lack of personality. This photo looks good in both color or black and white but I prefer the BW for its intimacy effect.
