Why have 1/4 of a celeb in a photo when you could have 3/4! I've started doing Portrait over the last couple of years as well. Very occasionally the camera is on a stand and isn't able to but not that often. I did get told no last year in one photoshoot which I asked in and I've no idea why that would be other than to save a bit of time....though in the time it took to say no they could have turned the camera, lol.

I suppose any native English speaker knows such stuff. So much to learn!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Printers don’t work that way. They just print the picture they are given and don’t care about orientation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The equivalent here is the photographer changing which way they hold the camera, so they don't need to change any other settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had quite the saga with my sister yesterday because she had visited Madame Tussaud's and afterwards was presented with a zip file of Pictures to download. >< 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he is... my first comment was going to be similar, if I would name one person I've seen the most doing wacky poses in the photo shoots over the last few years (at any con in general) it's Jason.
