Any photographer who knows anything about lighting and composition can shoot any niche if they know what the niche is about, and be very very successful.

Now, whether they WANT to do it... that's another factor entirely.
DO you direct your shootings? DO you say what position to do, what to say, what rhythm should be taken?

You might have reason, you can do it acceptably if you know the common canons of that niche. But I doubt the production will be opera prima, if you don't like it.
