This is the topic that matters the most. A serious shooting is a very intimate thing and trust is really important. As soon as the model feels an insecurity of the photographer, he or she will become insecure too. It matters a lot who you shoot. I often feel like photographers don't pay attention if the person in front of them is more introverted or extroverted and they often times force the person to be extroverted, happy, active. A huge mistake, even calm or even sad moments can turn into incredible portraits.
thank you so much for this amazing comment :) you're 100% right
1. Play music
2. Warm up or chat with them
3. Never stop talking
4. Compliment your model
5. Tethering (optional)
6. The photo-booth
I transitioned from landscape and building photography to portraiture. I realised soon on just how important a good early ice breaker was in avoiding any awkwardness or stiffness, forced poses etc. So I would ask the person or persons I was shooting what their favourite song was and that would be first on the playlist. Then while it played I'd encourage a bit of random silliness and sometimes a little bit of dancing. It was like having a quick P.E. lesson, but usually loosened everyone up a bit. I also have a list of jokes in my back pocket for when I want to provoke facial expressions. I've never researched how other photographers interact with models, so this video is very insightful.
Hopefully, you won't stop making videos after a while because I just found your channel and I fucking love your stuff.
Thanks so much dude

Re-edit - tip 6.. GOLD!!
I'm a very shy photographer and this helped me tremendously. Thank you so very much!!
I wish I had something more poetic to say, but I just wanted to express my gratitude for this video! I've only seen 2 of your videos so far and I subscribed after the first one. The way you explain these things is just brilliant. I watch a lot of photography related videos and I feel like I get so much value when watching yours. Thank you so much for sharing!
This was great! Watched it right before heading out for a senior session. I am in my late 30s and feel like I struggle with the teens. I am clearly uncool - whaaa?! Thanks for the video, the confidence boost, and sharing your beautiful images.
amazing. thanks for the video! A very good reminder to be real and positive )
you've become my new favourite youtuber. Great tips
Brilliant tips 🙌
Very nice video. Helpful.
Thanks for the tips
Thank you!
Hey Tommy, Just stumbled across this gem. I've been looking for a video like this for a while. I have to tell you this is one of the best "# tips for..." videos I've ever seen. You have a new fan in me. Liked and subscribed. Thanks :)
AWESOME TIPS.
Thank you so much
Great video & some much more for me to work on it seems. The one thing I really struggle with is talking to people once I get a camera in my hands don't ask me why it just seems to happen.
This should have so many more views!! Subscribed!
Thank you 🥰
Great idea with the "music"! Thanks.
Amazing video!! Thanks, it's exactly what I was looking for =)
I've never done portraits, I'm not a professional photographer, but I'm taking my friend's maternity photos (those with the big belly!) because she doesn't have to budget to hire someone. This is exactly the types of tips I needed, I hope I can put them into practice. (and the video is so relaxed as well, that it does give me more confidence - I guess that will help as well)
Thanks Tommy. I fully agree with you. The booth-tip is great. It is so close, but I never thought of it. And tip number 7: Always have fun and a great time with your client - that's what they keep mostly in mind...I'm happy that I found you on youtube - keep on doing. Thanks!
Very inspiring...
Awesome!
Many CZcamsr Photographer has this "tips for model shoot" videos but all of them are just the same and none of them are really that helpful. But this one's different, this one is spot on! Thanks for this man, very helpful tips!
These are the tips that really unite and stand out! Thank you for your tips! I really love your vids! Keep making more like this!!!
Thank you! Lots of videos planned
Thanks man! 👌
Thank you so much for this advice. This is information I've never heard before. I need to incorporate this into my work immediately. Good looking out. Phelix. 👍🏾🎥📷
Thanks buddy :)
Love it! Great video my Man! Very engaging and approachable! Love to check out your work somewhere... Where might that be?
As an introvert this video is helpful, I don’t like telling people what to do
Amateur photographer here watching this before a shoot with a model. Very helpful tips. Thanks a lot!
One word: BRILLANTE!!!
keep up the good work!!
Great video brother!
very nice!!
Super helpful video! I'd say I'm good with photography (especially concerts and street/photojournalism). Portraits have always been an intimidating idea because I have NO idea how to interact with models. I actually did a portrait shoot a few days ago (first one. Wasn't paid, just as a favor for a friend) and hoooooly crap. Yeah, it definitely isn't so much about the gear but more about the interactions. Watching this video makes me realize that I made so many mistakes! Especially @04:22. THAT WAS LEGIT ME! GAAAAHHH!! I cringed so hard when I saw that because that is exactly what I was doing!
I guess this is how you learn. But this video is super helpful for my next portrait shoot, whenever that is.
Brilliant Video, loads of info - question could you do us a quick video on how and where to get models (UK) as there are lots of places ie, Purpleport. Model Mayhem and how you make that initial contact maybe ? - Great tips :) and thanks
Great video
This is the most important lesson I have learnt so far, cheers buddy. Keep em coming!
You're welcome Alex :)
Just found your channel - awesome advice! Thank you!
You're welcome Peter thank you for watching :D
great video mate :)
Agreed! My motto for photography is that you take the photo with a camera, but you don't create it with a camera.
Great video. I’m at a point where I feel I’m technically proficient. But it’s the interaction with clients and getting great expressions that’s the hard part. And there is so little out there regarding that. These days anyone can pick up a dslr and get well exposed sharp images. But getting images with great expressions and emotion is what separates good photographers from great ones.
I like the photo booth idea. It'd be a good ice breaker for clients who are nervous or stiff when starting. It'd be fun too.
Keep it up man 👍🏼
This video was sooooo helpful mate. Loved the tips you gave, eventhough you called me out on tip #3 lol. Luckily I'm watching this as a beginner, they will help me avoid it haha. Cheers
Very informative 😍👌
I've been looking for this video for a while now! Thank you so much for delving into the personal relations aspect of photography!! As you said, it is so important. I have felt this for a while, but I couldn't seem to find videos on the subject.. I have a feeling this will greatly improve my photography. If you think of any more tips, or have more extended thoughts on the subject, I would love to hear them! There also may be a niche available for talking about it, and you seem to be well suited to that. Thanks again!
You're welcome David thank you for watching :)
