Making Posing Simple, Natural, and Real

Why I Created Shutr
Hi, I’m Katie — a photographer who knows firsthand how awkward posing clients can feel when you’re behind the camera trying to make magic happen. When I first started, I used to overthink every little movement: where to put their hands, how to make them laugh, how to help them look natural instead of stiff. Over time, I realized that great posing isn’t about memorizing a list of positions — it’s about creating connection, comfort, and flow. I built this site to help other photographers learn how to guide their clients with confidence, find inspiration when creativity runs dry, and turn those “what do I do next?” moments into effortless, authentic sessions.

Why Shutr?
If you’ve ever stood behind your camera wondering “What do I tell them to do with their hands?”, you’re not alone.
Posing clients can be one of the hardest parts of photography — even for experienced photographers. It’s not just about angles or symmetry; it’s about helping real people feel confident, comfortable, and connected in front of your lens.
I created this site to make that process easier. Whether you’re photographing a shy senior, an engaged couple, or a full family session, posing doesn’t have to feel forced or awkward. It’s about guiding, not controlling — giving just enough direction so that natural emotion and movement can shine through.
Here, you’ll find pose galleries, visual examples, and tips written for photographers, not clients. Each gallery shows real ideas you can use, and each section includes quick posing insights to help you understand why a pose works, not just what it looks like.
The goal is simple:
To help you learn how to read your clients and adapt on the spot.
To give you inspiration when your mind goes blank during a shoot.
And to build your confidence so you can focus on creativity — not stress.
This isn’t about copying poses; it’s about understanding connection, direction, and flow.
Because when your clients feel at ease, your images come alive.
