The Stories People Often Tell About Us That We Never Knew

The back shot is a very interesting phenomenon in fashion photography.  A lot of times its a 'Well, better turn around so we can document what the back looks like,' kindof thing, but occasionally, you'll get a picture that is so compelling, you don't even care about what's on the front side.  Let's break this down a little.

First, there's the no-face, looking-to-the-right angle.

And sitting no-face.

Then there's the nonchalant look-over-the-shoulder.

And lastly there's the caught-in-the-act candid twirl look.

Tune in next week for some musings on side shot photography.
