Are you a photographers muse?
This question came to me after reading another thread. What I mean is do you try and add something to the shoot besides a smile? Are you easy to work with and willing to try something new within some limits of course. Do you try and offer cool ideals or did you see a intresting location? Are you excited about shooting? Trust me it shows. Do you enjoy shooting so much that its the photographer that quits and you are ready to still shoot some more. Do you demand the best from yourself and give your all to the shoot. I think one of the best things a model can ever hear from a photographer is, she is his muse. A person who inspires him or her to reach new heights or to try harder or to do something new and unique. Sure you are pretty and have a killer figure but are you a muse for someone? Apr 27 06 12:39 am Link Yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes. I guess that makes me a muse then? At least I try to amuse. Apr 29 06 02:37 am Link I think only the photographer can rely to this. A must is born and not made. I have shot with some models a lot of times and they are good but no muse. I have seen only 2 models who I would consider a muse since I started shooting nudes in 1989. bs Apr 29 06 07:13 am Link Most definitely! Apr 29 06 07:15 am Link I like to think I am. Apr 29 06 07:29 am Link I only found one model that would fit that title. And we only had a chance to shoot about 8 times over 2 years. Then she found the man of her dreams and married him and left modeling forever. But I am sure there will be a new model one day that will be my Muse.. Mike Apr 29 06 08:29 am Link you cant find a muse, a muse will find you..if your lucky.. its not how they look, its not how they pose, its not ideas they bring to a shoot, it's their essence, it inspires your soul to create... and if a muse finds you, keep her happy or you'll loose her. and yeah..i got one or two Apr 29 06 08:42 am Link Doug Swinskey wrote: Neener neener neener Doug I have three..............LOL!!!!! *WINK* Apr 29 06 08:44 am Link I think I qualify. Hugh often mock-complains that I have taken over his portfolio. I like to think we make magic together. It's been so long since we did a group shoot, though, that I miss working with my girlfriends. Come back my buddies, I miss you! Summer is here, and it's time to work up some heat Apr 29 06 08:47 am Link DreamPretty wrote: Hugh`s luckier than he thinks........... Apr 29 06 08:48 am Link I've been called a muse more than once, for artists as well not just photographers. I like the title it makes me happy to inspire creativity.
