Lol a fake photo shoot to creep on a hot girl you saw on instagram? I'm a sleaze and I still find that messed up. Maybe you should go outside and cold approach or something rather than setting up traps straight out of law and order svu.
Dude, you guys are kind of pessimistic. Dumb ideas work, period. Part of the charm is that girls like watching a guy fumble his way through something.
I've done it without any prior knowledge and faked my way through it well enough to have the girl want to do it again. I said in another thread that I paid a girl to model, but I've also had volunteers to do it for free.
Seriously. Photo shoots are like approaches, in my mind. You fuck it up the first few times, but girls really like getting their photos taken, in the long run.
You need a *real* DSLR though. If you're using a handheld that's going to be a little sketchy
Just the the camera on the "portrait setting" and you're good to go. Make sure the white balance and ISO are on "Auto", or are on correct settings.
If it's outdoors do it during "golden hour" which is one hour before sunset. You want the sun to be behind her, so there are no shadows on her face or body, and you want to wait long enough for the sun to set partways, so the sun does not glare into the camera.
You can use a flash to help lighten her face, if necessary.
What kind of camera do you have?
