Being great in front of the camera 101

Being great in front of the camera is easier than you think.

The biggest deal is not to try too hard, be comfortable. This applies to making pictures too.

For the person in front of the camera think like an actor get in character, mood, or just be yourself. Young people don't think like this which is worth noting, they like distraction short attention span and all that.

The first few minutes of any shoot I am thinking how is this going to pan out, most of the time there is some kind of settling for both sides. 

This applies to both private and commercial shoots, as a photographer I am thinking oh here we are again, have a strategy to change the mood and tempo to get through this part and productive.

Being great in front of the camera 101 don't try too hard, know what you are trying to achieve, work well together.
