I just posted this as a random ponderance on my facebook, but I figured it would get more response here .... theoretically.
How does one go about doing heterosexual candor communication (male photog. to female client, vice versa) in such a way as to facilitate posing/mood/atmosphere/information without having the 'car salesman sleaseball / flighty high school flirt' feeling to such a communication?
I'm trying to develop a sense of more relaxation, playfulness, ease but these methods recommended are suspiciously 'harassment' in nature. What sort of successful, unsuccessful methods have you used/seen in your experiences with taking photos or having photos taken of you/others?
Basically, what have you experiences been with taking photography (as a photographer or as a subject/client)? How have you approached/been approached by the candor for posing/smiling/etc? What has worked, what hasn't? What has helped you feel good about the experience? What has contributed toward an offsetting experience?
