Tips for capturing emotions

[Martin Riley]

I specialize in real estate photography work. It's all about selling the home and landscaping. I have very little experience with photographing people. Unfortunately, when I try to focus on the person's emotions, it turns out looking plastic and creepy. How can I improve?

I think part of photographing people is also the expression on their faces. I did notice that people's emotions in a lot of real estate commercials and billboards look pretty fake. I think it's a combination of your skills and their effort to look more natural.
