There’s a moment in certain shoots where the energy shifts.
Nothing dramatic happens. No red flags. Just a slight pause. A look. A feeling that something almost went left.
That’s the line.
Most photographers don’t cross it on purpose. They cross it because they think being relaxed means being loose. They think comfort means familiarity. They think silence needs filling.
It doesn’t.
The difference between a good shoot and a ruined reputation is usually one sentence that didn’t need to be said.
If you don’t know where the line is, the camera won’t save you.
I’ll explain how I avoid it in the next one.
