In Season 9 Episode 15 of The PRO EDU Podcast, Gary and Matt Stagliano discuss the art of photography and how to capture the essence of a person through posing and building trust. Matt shares stories about his career transition from biotech and managing nightclubs to photography, as well as his ever-evolving focuses within the world of photography. They discuss the importance of understanding each client's unique body type and movement, as well as their concerns and self-consciousness. Matt shares his approach for consultation, and how he gets to know his client and find out what they want to achieve through each shoot. In order to better understand their needs, he works with them to storyboard and mood board the shoot, so they become part of the process rather than just a transaction. Matt explains that his favorite part of the shoot is the non-photography part, where he can talk with his clients and learn about their lives, what makes them tick, and what they want to communicate through their photographs. He enjoys the post-production process because he can create a cohesive story and bring the images to life.
