"There are times in the creative field when this happens. I make sure to regroup with the photographer to explain the strain a gap in communication causes for the overall shoot. Then, I continue to kill it on set! I want to have a great working relationship with all photographers, to maximize my opportunities."

You cannot force others to communicate with you in a way that you would always prefer. Talk to the interviewer about a time that you have handled a situation of miscommunication with a photographer.

"Whenever I have had a photographer who does not properly communicate with me, I try to learn their style of communication and emulate it. Sometimes you simply have to relate to others in their style to be understood."
