I am very green when it comes to posing people for photo shoots. I have many books on how to, but when it comes to the moment, i have a hard time actually putting the people where they belong. Any ideas would be helpful!
If you have an iPhone...there's an app for that... I almost always look at poses I have previously used that work or if you don't have many to look at that are your own, do a web search OR go to Pinterest and type in "Senior poses Boy" Or "Family Photo poses" and get some ideas. Make yourself a little booklet to look at while shooting to refresh your memory. I always look at specific poses based on what I am shooting. The longer you do it, the more you will remember. Michelle Celentano says to "puzzle" your larger groups (like family shots) together - make them interlock like a puzzle. Not easy to set up to begin with but easy once you start doing it.
