You have a great sense of elegance in your gestures, @sweetsssj!

Additionally, I have photographed beauty, fashion and editorial models for numerous publications and I have to agree it's easier to work with a model that understands what the client is looking for by having strong sense of self.

Sometimes, a fresh model, male or female, would have to be directed the most. Often, clients will choose the 'look' more than the 'talent', which may or may not be a good thing when time is a factor. Most client's assume that the model knows what they are doing and they will perform well in the camera.

Overall, it's a joy to work with someone that understands how to 'work' the camera with ease, confidence and grace. Also it's awesome to see a past model I've photographed before, improve on their camera presence.

Finally, the communication between the model and photographer is very important. If you feel uncomfortable, a model should speak up. Thirsty? Ask. Someone should be there to help you out. It's always to the best interest of the client that the model is happy and comfortable at all times, to get the best possible shot.
