Katie Miller switches things up by photographing her subjects from behind. Sometimes a change in perspective makes all the difference, and Miller's [back-of-the-head photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/headshotwork) are definitely no less interesting than a quintessential smiling shot. In fact, keeping an important piece of the puzzle missing -- in this case, the face -- adds to the intrigue of the images.

Moreover, Miller plays with [color and composition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) to keep each photo visually appealing. Of course, it doesn't hurt that all of Miller's subjects also seem to have shiny, salon-worthy hair.

Finally, the [vibrant landscapes in the background](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epic-ai-travel-photos) also play an important role in keeping the series dynamic. Whether it's a cloudless blue sky or a cinematic sunset straight out of a romance movie, the scenic backdrops provide another layer to Miller's work.
