I remember years ago seeing a movie where a girl came in from a down pour and I thought she was the hottest thing ever. I don't really remember the movie, just the scene. I know a lot of people want to have their picture taken with finely made up hair(often they spend several dollars to look that good for the picture). But I've always preferred a more natural look and sometimes I ask the people I'm photographing to soak their heads. The thing that I've noticed with this approach is the person being photographed--for the most part looks more comfortable when posing--perhaps because they're not afraid of mussing up their do. Whatever the case I do ask the people I'm working with to often just stick their head under the faucet for a little while and then shoot pictures with their hair all wet and messy. The pictures look different because most people believe they need to have every hair in place before they get their photo taken. Its why we all stop and pose for a picture when we see one lifted to the eye--we want to look the way we want to look--not always the way we actually look. I've photographed Angela several times now and she is just great--she photographs as well if not better than anyone I know and she should very easily be able to make some money--if not a living just as a model. She can pull off many looks, perhaps because she is an actress, I don't know for sure, but what ever it is--her persona seems to reach right out of the photograph.
