Out Takes The Cake (sorry I am pun-central these days)
I keep remembering that when I'm doing a shoot to step out of the goal for a moment and just shoot things that amuse myself. This image is from some rehearsals for 'What A Man's Gotta Do'. My job was to shoot casual portraits of the performers, but in between I took a few shots of Dave's feet, jacket and the wall. A little obscure. But kind of fashionable - don't you think?
Funny I think how fashion photographers spend ages setting up for shots like this, but they are often easier found when not trying!
There are plenty of opportunities at shoots to capture moments when people don't realise you're doing it - particularly if it could be a significant moment in time, like people rehearsing for the first time together, or more behind the scenes stuff - like someone fixing their collar or the stylist playing with someone's hair...
The shots can end up in places you never would have thought of either.
