The one thing I wish High School Seniors would NOT stress about is . . . 

POSING!!!!! 

 

Not everyone is an automatic model when they walk through the studio doors at Suzanne Deaton Photography!  In fact, even the most confident young ladies I come in contact with need some guidance!

So, please don't stress over posing. I will pose you. And, guys, don't stress either because I will promise to pose you to look like confident young men, not women.  

I will pose you. PERIOD. I will guide you, direct you, get you used to posing in front of the camera, show you about controlling movement, flowing through poses and moving your body in a flattering way.  

 

 

TIPS for getting the most out of your senior picture poses: 

  • Relax

  • Make sure you eat a little something before your photoshoot to avoid being "hangry" and nervous stomach issues

  • Remember, the camera stops the action so you can move freely and not be stagnant in front of the camera.  

  • Try moving in front of a mirror, side to side, front to back, anything to not be square to the camera.

  • Trust the photographer you are with. They will know how to pose you if they have been trained and are professional. 

  • If it bends, bend it . . . wrists, elbows, knees, loosen up, bend one or both of your elbows and wrists.

  • Don't have claw hands, stiff hands, think "ballet fingers" soft, relaxed wrists, and ballet fingers. 

 

WANT TO POSE LIKE A SUPER MODEL?

Get inspired from the best in the industry, Super Models! Coco Rocha is so much fun to watch, you will be amazed.
