Brenda:
Another thing this Colorado guy used to do was to either put a piece of tape on a wall where the sitter had chosen to "look" during his/her pose, or he would tell them to pick a spot, a thing, or something through a window (not a car that could move) to fix their gaze on. This would help the model find his spot.
I think the thing is that it is important for artists, who are usually paying good money for this, to get their money's worth, and that no one should be offended if someone says something in the beginning of the session that sets out a few guidelines. Not about the money, but about the importance of an unchanging pose, and that so-and-so has been appointed the "pose monitor" for this sit.
My Colorado guy made light of it. Not a joke at anyone's expense. Just that it was important to keep a pose, and that today, this or that person was responsible for keepint the model on point. It was always "light" in nature. Never had a snit or a rant.
