Photographing Senior Boys | Tips + Tricks

Heres A look at what I send my guys for a "PREP LIST"

I try to keep it SHORT, SWEET & TO THE POINT!!!!

now on to POINT NUMBER TWO!

POSING:

Now let me address the common GUY posing mistakes I see.

1. The POOP squat...yes you read that right...the squat pose that you may see that looks like the guy is ready to take a poop in the woods...YEAH you want to try and avoid that type of squat....there is a way to correct their squat pose to make it more flattering and more natural looking and less awkward ...a slight lowering of one knee can make the BIGGEST Difference

^ heres a side profile of how you can make the squat pose LOOK SO MUCH better just have them lower one knee a tad! :)

OR you can even try a vary of different sitting poses like these:

ALSO I forgot to add the FINAL thing to avoid with photographing GUYS!

AVOID CLOSED FISTS- it makes them look unfriendly and stiff and unapproachable

instead keep their hands loose and relaxed

I hope these keep you inspired and give you fresh eyes when photographing Guys.

Happy SHOOTING!
