Oh yes it's a tough gig. No one lets me live it down. All that Champagne and flirting on set...... All jokes aside. It can be when you are carrying my lighting and power generator 500m and more from the car by myself. I'd make the model help but i don't want her all sweaty and tired. I make her carry things back to the car though
It is very enjoyable being able to create photos that show women in a beautiful light so that others can appreciate it.
Shoots are nothing like most people expect them to be though. Very professional, very results driven and a lot of directing. There is no flirting or pampering like people think. It is all about helping the model feel comfortable and bringing out their personality in shots. I struggle to get anything good when I don't spend any time learning about the model because i will not be able to show their personality in the shots.
