在談到人像攝影師如何與模特兒建立良好的互動時，Jean-Sebastien 表示，在拍攝之前，事先與模特兒開會討論其實是非常重要的，然而，和模特兒討論的細節並不是指要細談每一個固定的姿態或表現，而是告訴她們，我們想要表達的創意構思及情境，這也是掌控全場、隨機應變的最高原則。

對於一個業餘的模特兒而言，她們若能在拍攝前，充份瞭解到拍攝時攝影師的要表達的構思及情境，那麼，相信她們在演出時，會更加地有自信。

Discussing with the model prior to the session is very important. This doesn't mean that you have to plan every pose or every expression: but once you've defined the atmosphere and ideas that you'd like to convey, it's way easier to play with these "rules" and change them on the fly.

Furthermore, models are more confident if they know what the session will look like before starting it (this is important as my models are not profesionnals).

在談到樹立作品的風格問題時，Jean-Sebastien 認為，每一個攝影師基本上還是會為其他的攝影師所影響，事實上，他也無法妄稱自己創作了一個全新的影像。每一個影像總是會帶來不同的感觸及想法，因此，Jean-Sebastien 較傾向於多樣的表現。當我們認為Jean-Sebastien的影像有一致的調性，他則認為那應該是就特定階段的拍攝來講是這樣。

Every photographer is influenced by others' works. I'm not pretending to take new images that were never seen before. It just comes out that you discover after a certain time that your interpretation of images becomes coherent, even if the original image that inspired you was different.

對於想要進入人像攝影領域的攝影師，Jean-Sebastien也特別提到了幾個要注意的地方。

接下來的原則針對的是一般的平面模特兒人像拍攝，而不是指新聞拍攝。

My advices would only apply to "posed" images (and not journalism, for instance).

- 首先，要做好準備的工作，構思好你想傳達的情境、故事主題，並精確地規劃要使用哪些備件、場景... 等。

- prepare the session, and have something in mind: an atmosphere that you'd like to convey, a story... Be precise on the accessories and place that you'd like to use.

和你的模特兒進行討論，讓他們更有信心地完成你的拍攝目標，這樣的方式，固然會花點時間，但顯然會重新來過還簡單。

- discuss with the model. Make her/him confident by explaining your goals. It's way easier than starting a session from scratch.

注意光線佈局，這顯然是一個重要的關鍵，保持光線的柔質化(例如，在蔭涼處拍攝)，這樣會有助於模特兒臉孔、膚質的表現。

- take care of the lightning: this is the most important part. Keep it soft (shoot under shaded areas for instance) to flatter the model's face.

在拍攝過程，持續地和模特兒交談，讓他們瞭解，你正在進行的拍攝狀況。

- keep chating with the model during the session, explain what you're doing.
