When shooting portraits, try to capture your subject’s different moods.
When writing, do the same thing with your characters. We all exhibit a wide range of moods. Even within a few minutes, we can go from happy to angry. By showing these different emotions, we make our characters more dimensional. No one wants to read about a character who’s angry all the time. And a character who’s happy all the time eventually becomes boring. Where’s the conflict in that?
Remember, showing emotions is one way to get the reader to care about your character. And showing it in your photos, makes your pictures come alive.
