In a great portrait, the eyes allow me to connect with the subject and establish a relationship and share it with others who view the finished photograph.

Loved the video
Great Video. Especially the way it was edited. Zipping thru the numerous headshots. And I LOVE the Music. What sound track is that?
This is such a stunning video!
Joe, dude, that was a bad ads video. That advice about the eyes is on point!!!
So cool video.
Your videos are awesome, Joe. I am highly inspired by watching your videos. Heartfelt thanks 🙏 for sharing your ideas with us. Love 💕 from 🇮🇳 India.
Hello joe, I recently come accross your content. Wow the best thing that happened to me. Especially with this video you seem to incorporate beautiful shots with beautiful music. One question I have is do you post process the eyes to be more sharp and also remove blemishes? For the second do you think is neccessary for beauty shots? Thanks. Giannis
I love your art! It inspires me.
This is truly next level stuff. Wow.
I have been pressing pausejust to see your pictures :-). Great video Joe and also very good and inspiring work 🙂
The eye thing is another turning point for me. I will try to pay more attention to the eyes as from now on.
It's registers a connection/link.
Thanks
really like your channel and tips `n tricks, you got yourself a new subscriber Joe..
Absolutely amazing video
Videos are so well done, so professional that they make you feel like a professional after watching them. This is the magic of a true art.
I am re-watching this just 3h before having my second headshots session with a young actress. As always your video are very inspiring and very well edited. In this video I do not know why, but your face reminds me a bit Ben Stiller even if the "mood" of this video is different from the "mood" of his movies.👍
Your shirts always rocks!

That's portait as it was intended to be.👍🏾
Love this video, very inspirational for photographers!
Fire Video! Joe always has the juice!
Impressive and beautiful work, I love the inspirational feeling of your video, thanks!
Awesome shots and I can see from the catch lights you used different lighting and all to great effect. Without taking any merit from you, the beautiful models helped a lot in the making of these amazing images.
I wholly agree: the model is not just a "model", she or he is a person, a human being. I, too, shoot for the eyes. I know it drove a lot of my fellow Marines nuts when I always coaxed them into looking right into the camera lens (back in my film days of the late 80s & 90s), but they always liked the end result. Cheers Joe!
Such incredibly, stunning, captivating beauty. I'm at a loss for words…
It's all in the eyes.
Real great 👍👍👍
Excellent
