I was doing three-quarter length photographs to full length of her. That’s what was called for there was no close-ups unfortunately. She would do a change sometimes between each number. Also other people were added into the photographs as a grip and grin. Not being able to talk to her just made it very difficult at times. Not quite as spontaneous. But at the end of the day it all worked.
I would be talking to Diana during the photo shoot—things like, “lick your lips,”move your hips to the left,” “turn your shoulders,” and “tilt head forward.” I suppose having her say “cheese” would have been cornball. Instead, I would have asked her to say, “Fuzzy pickles!”
