Portrait Posing?
Feb 21, 2013 13:45:19 #
Recently I did an open photo shoot and ended up running out of ideas for poses. I've checked the internet and haven't had much luck. Does anyone know of any websites or books on the topic of posing? Individual, groups, families all suggestions are appreciated.

I'm not specifically a potrait photographer... a jack-of-all-trades, master of none, but it looked so useful to me, I bookmarked it.

Here is what I suggest.
Forget learning poses....after you've done your 6 that you know today...then what?
Instead...learn HOW to pose anyone in any situation and make them look good.
Trust me on this...your world will be changed.
This has to be the best thing I've ever seen on shooting, lighting and posing portraits.
