Say this to the subject
“Take one unhurried step and let the arms follow naturally. Walk towards camera, holding tablet. Keep your eyes forward-looking.”
Photographer cue: The subject is captured mid-stride, walking naturally towards the camera to create a sense of movement. One arm swings naturally while the other holds a sleek, unbranded tablet. The head is upright, with a forward-looking and determined gaze and a neutral, professional expression that suggests action.
