Doing a photo session can sometimes be quite boring because we always have to meet the same model, even with different concepts, but the desire as a photographer to explore moods, styles, and new things cannot be avoided. Collaborating with a model whom we have often invited to photo sessions does have its advantages; we already know which angles and poses suit that model, so it can greatly save our time during the photo session.
However, I have a model whom I never get bored with when inviting her to do a photo session, her name is Lila. Several times I have also shared my posts when doing photo sessions with her. Lila always excites me when inviting her to do a photo session; this is because besides her friendly and playful personality, I also like her mood that can be posed as cute, happy, or sad. And that's what makes me often invite her to do a photo session. However, Lila herself has a unique taste in photos; she really likes it when I take her photos using a wide lens, she thinks it makes her look tall like in photos taken with a smartphone camera, she says. So when I do a photo session with her, I always use several lenses, including a wide lens. And I also love experimenting with new lenses, this time I tried using a fisheye lens for this photo session. Although the result makes the photo look distorted, this perspective makes the photo look unique, but not everyone likes the perspective using this lens; some people say using this lens will make the model look chubby. But I think it's okay to experiment a little with a fisheye lens and find a new perspective. Because for me, that's art. Oh, here are the photos.
And here are the photos when I use a standard lens:
Honestly, I really enjoy playing with the fisheye lens because I can be creative with unique perspectives, but the challenge is that it can make faces look asymmetrical when they're not centered. Next time, I'll use this lens again.
I hope you always enjoy the photos I present in my posts.
Warm regards from me.
