It’s easy to start shooting, and then never ever ask your model how they’re feeling. I now make a point of frequently checking in. It’s little things like saying: “How are you doing? Do you need a break? Can I get you a glass of water or anything?” Often models are young, and might feel pressure to not say something if it’s bothering them.
