Pro-Tips:
Diversity is always important to keep in mind for lifestyle shoots. Keep it authentic and remember that life isn’t always shiny happy all the time. In addition to pleasant emotions, think about capturing a range of expressions including focused, determined, concerned, sad, etc.
Include the location in your metadata, especially if you’re filming outside. We’re increasingly getting requests from customers wanting to license & use content that’s captured in specific countries/regions.
