Rob Gibson - Red Hat Series Unedited 2023
Added 2023-09-29 00:00:03 +0000 UTCBelieve it or not, I did weed these down. The reason I included so many is so you can see a full view of what a shoot can look like in entirety. A shoot can be in a photographer's living room of a one bedroom apartment. A shoot can be hundreds of photos where the photographer is trying to capture one right pose that meshes with what the vision is in their head. And, a model trying to get that pose right based on verbal cues and little noises of approval or frustration the photographer is making. In this particular case, he wanted the hat tilted so that my eyes didn't show, but he was so far away from me and using his phone as a camera that I'm not sure he could tell each time if my eyes were showing or if things looked how he wanted. So, he'd zoom in, too. And, I couldn't tilt my head or my eyes up to check my positioning, because then my eyes would definitely have shown. After I show you all these unedited photos, I'll show you the edits, which are pretty cool, and it gives you a better idea what he needed all the options for.
Comments
My apologies. I shall temper my comments and await the final results of this work in progress.

2023-10-01 01:30:31 +0000 UTCYou should wait until the rest of the photos are posted, prior to posting judgemental things about how photographers choose to work or the equipment they use. Sometimes (often) people have to use what they have. And, with him barely being able to stand on his own as a quadraplegic, I think he's doing pretty damn good. Please be kind in your comments, as many of them are coming off as judgemental, or I will have to remove you. Constructive criticism is welcome (especially over my modeling, which I have control over. I don't have control over photographers). Criticism is not. Thank you.

Using a camera phone for a shoot? Was that a preference or was a digital SLR not available? I wonder if photographers are able to convey or articulate their design concept or do they just "wing it" in hopes that a happy accident results. I think communication is key.
