She is a skin care specialist for a spa, and wanted to be photographed in a tranquil, natural setting. I thought a bamboo forest might provide that zen feeling. The coral colored top was great for bringing warmth to the picture. At first she was perplexed as to why I was taking so many photos of her in the same pose. It's because with each pose, there is a slight change in the tilt of the head, the cheese of the smile, the open-ness of the eyes, the behavior of the hair. For headshots, all these things are very noticeable (unlike a series of family candids; facial features are not so much the subject of attention), and so the ideal situation is for the client to have as many pics to choose from as possible.
