Simple poses, stunning results.
FAQ
Why use subtle angles instead of straight-on shots?
Angles add dimension and visual interest while flattering a variety of face shapes. Tilting the shoulders slightly or turning the head can create a more dynamic and professional look.
Why guide subjects to shift weight onto one leg?
This creates natural curves in the body and prevents a stiff, “boxed-in” look. Weight shifts make standing poses appear relaxed and flattering.
Why ask subjects to interact with themselves or surroundings?
Gestures like adjusting sleeves, playing with hair, or leaning on a wall create candid, relaxed portraits. Interaction adds authenticity and prevents stiffness.
Why take multiple shots of the same pose?
Even subtle variations in expression, hand placement, or gaze can change the mood. Shooting multiple frames ensures you capture the best moment.
