I had the opportunity to work with some professional models during a photo conference. Everyone in attendance had the same idea for this pair...lovey dovey, googly eyes, fawning over other in wedded bliss. I had a different idea.
I pulled the couple aside and directed her to act like he'd done something to get on her bad side; I directed him to cower in fear. They were excited to break out of the happy couple mold and were good sports with my ideas.
