That is so true.
I shoot out of my apt, and I use the whole place as a studio along with my backdrop setup. Usually with clients there is a comfort factor they takes a little bit to settle in as you are in someone's home and don't know each other. Our 1st shoot 10yrs ago went great, she was bit nervous at 1st, once we hit 2nd and 3rd outfit, vibe was there. A few shots from it below, she had the 1st speaker shot posted everywhere, was her favorite. I wasn't even up on my skin retouch/smoothing photoshop game yet.
