Comments on: How many frames does it take to get a great flawed expression? http://www.joeedelman.com/blog/modeling/shooting-portfolios/flawed-expression/ A behind the lens look at how and why I do what I do.

Why? Because we're kidred spirits. You won't find us on a web address because we just never needed to do it. Both of us worked as models in Europe as well as Australia and went on to become photographers. For many years my husband Denis Ryan produced all the composites for all the model agencies in Melbourne, worked commercialy and sudmitted to stock lidraries which is what he focuses on now. I've been following your site and have a good chuckle reading your information as I am constantly saying similar things to new models starting out. I'm a great believer that models are stills actors. Expression is everything and Believeability a must. I feel a bit like a novice regarding this whole internet business but realize one has to get with the program. Pity I'm a one finger typist. Your workshops look interesting maybe one day. Hi Joe

Thanks!!! I will say that some of my best shots were when they were not expecting me to shoot.

I get so irritated at our fashion shoots when our models try to Magnum or Blue Steel their way through a look instead of just wanting to react more naturally.
