T ips for Models
Some General Posing Tips:
- Don't hold your breath for a pose. The concentration usually shows in the picture.
- Hold in your stomach to give a more toned appearance to the abdomen (even if you are in great shape).
- Most people, including models, do not have very good posture. Unless you're going for a casual look, keep your back straight and your shoulders up.
- Don't keep both arms entirely straight unless directed to do so for a specific pose. Bend one or both arms, even if only a little, to make the pose look less artificial. Likewise, don't keep both legs entirely straight.
- Don't always look straight at the camera. Instead, use a variety of head and eye positions: Try turning your head, tilting your neck to one side or the other, or looking off to the side for some poses.
- Don't use a big smile for every pose. Sometimes try a small smile, a pout, a laugh, a scowl, or even a frown, to give some variety to your facial expressions.
- Listen to what the photographer tells you. He can see you through the camera. You can't.
