How to Make Clients Comfortable in Front of the Camera with Ben Marcum
Portrait, headshot, and boudoir photographer Ben Marcum joins us on the Perspective podcast to discuss directing people in front of the camera, building trust with clients, and why understanding posing and light is essential for photographers. Based in Louisville, Kentucky, Ben shares his journey from theatre sound engineer to full-time photographer, how classic portraiture and art history influence his work, and why trends often date images quickly. The conversation explores client psychology, studio portrait techniques, and lessons wedding photographers can learn from studio work.
