model chemistry

[jutowa123]

i do not know how to search this.

i did a shoot today with a man and a woman. over all the shoot went well and i am pleased with the way the photos came out. but, and imho this is a big but, there seems to be a lack of chemistry between the models. i know chemistry cannot be forced. you either like some one or you dont. is there a way to maybe fake chemistry for a photo? i will be working with these models again, although i will be telling the company that they dont work together, i would like to help them become better models as that will make them a good choice for me to use in other projects later.

all over the internet is stuff to help photographers become better but are there any resources for models?

I think your shift key is broken and there appear to be random full stops everywhere making your post hard to read. That being said this is a photography forum not an English forum so I will endeavor to answer your post in a courteous manner.

is there a way to maybe fake chemistry for a photo?

Although I do not shoot models, so I cannot comment from my experience. If you found a way to fake chemistry you'd be a millionaire (well not really but you get my point). Chemistry is one thing you can't fake you could have a good go but if the sparks not there then its not there.

That being said, does chemistry show up in photographs? I don't think it does, if the shot is composed properly, exposed and the models are doing what they are told, isn't that chemistry?

It's called giving direction.

You need models with acting skills.. Chemistry can't be fake'ed, but a pose made by two good actors, can easily fake a picture of chemistry. Think of any movie with two people having chemistry. They don't, but it looks very real, so the same can of cause be done in photos.
