RE: Low key (portrait) photography on a tight budget
Great work. This was quite helpful. I excel at composing photos of nature and architecture, but good images of people has always been difficult for me.
Thank you! What helps me a lot is looking at similar pictures, to get a feel of what type of poses are suitable for a certain shoot. Then I direct my model from those poses. They'll always interpret it a little different, so you'll still get a unique shot.
So basically, I look at tons of pictures of poses, and then I decide which ones I like and which not. And in time you'll know which poses work and which don't. :)
