The obvious things on a shoot

[tonygale]

I was on a corporate shoot yesterday, the only place I could use had Christmas lights up around all the windows, it was going to be a retouching nightmare. Then the receptionist said, maybe we can unplug the lights. It was such an obvious idea, that hadn't even occurred to me. Solved the problem in an instant. It was a good reminder to me that everyone has ideas and suggestions worth listening to.

Have you had someone suggest a good idea you weren't expecting on a shoot?

That is so true! I think we get into problem-solving mode so fast that we tend to miss the easiest solution. We are used to having to think on our feet and make the most of an imperfect situation.Great point!

Absolutely right, I was already on to way more difficult solutions in my head
