Michele Aboud - advertising & fashion photographer

Michele spoke of several photo shoots and the way she goes about approaching her creativity.

Embelish: sets out a pallet of colour, texture, design, composition
This is creative & visual art.
eg1 stadium shot of Robby Dean - 2 shots 1st of him sitting in stadium in good light -4pm twilight; 2 extra lights.
Later shot stadium when light was good for it. Did a composite.

Her philosophy:
speak to clients
relax subject ('talent')
calm relaxed
prepare well
think about the shot & what is needed

Michele does a lot of editorial work - for this she is not well paid but it is good for her reputation.
