FEMALE PHOTOGRAPHY POSING TIPS

Below is how the posing tips that could work, posing needs a little more focused attention in the gestures of the models.

  1. Hands
    • Girl’s fingers should be long and elegant.
    • Guys should have hands lightly fisted (like they are holding a small rock).
    • hip width apart will give a look of strength
    • at different angles or heights (on a step, chair etc) will give better “balance” to depth.
  2. Arms
    • Elbows bent express a comfortable casualness.
    • Arms straight give a feeling of formality and often stiffness (to be used with much caution)
  3. Head / Chin
    • Head tipped back slightly will generally give an attitude of “punk” (especially for guys, think, “bring it on”)
    • Head tipped back to the “high” shoulder will feel fun and flirty
    • Head down toward the “low” shoulder can express power or position (especially when shooting up at the subject).
  4. Legs
    • Legs spread hip width apart while standing will give an air of strength.
    • Generally while standing, one leg should hold the body weight; the other leg can be bent, or extended behind like a graceful dancer
  5. Shoulders
    • Should be on different “planes” (i.e. one slightly higher or lower than the other)
    • Shoulders square on will express a strong attitude.
  6. Joints
    • One rule: If it bends, bend it. This goes for elbows, knees, wrists, etc.
  7. Hips
    • Girls who stand with hips tilted forward will appear more slender
