Tips poses for amateur models

Photography. Directing pose is one of the major challenges of the photographer. Let alone an ordinary person, a model that has experienced too often clumsy in posing. Knowing the basic model pose techniques are important known by the photographer.

Simply put, there are some basic things that need to be considered when setting poses for amateur models:

• Do not slouch - not to be upright body position, but the spine should be straight.
• Shoulders should be relaxed - a strained shoulder and climbed to the top looked uncomfortable.
• Walking is an important foundation, standing, adjust the weight to one foot, do equally to both legs.
• Eyes also need dispose, directing the eye to focus somewhere / subject. Eyes need not always stare at the camera.
• So that does not seem stiff, the arm should not be straight, but curved, for example hips, or touch something.

By following these basic tips above pose, hopefully can help direct your subject so that the result is more stable.

There are some of my tips for photographers:

• Do not touch the model, because it will make the model becomes uncomfortable. We also lose confidence, and the model can be cranky. And when it's bad mood, the images will not be maximized. When directing us to demonstrate that the model should be able to understand our intentions.
• We need to see many pictures of the model that we like and make it as a reference
• Communicate what is wanted or expected from the model
• It's good to learn the poses so that they can demonstrate to the model
• Be helpfull if models need help from little things like giving tissue or drinking water
• If the model professional or semi-pro do not forget to prepare a fee and do not reduce the pay. This makes the model of trust with us and will help us when in need of a model at a later date. Do not joke about these things because of a friendship between the model usually fairly close.

I also have some tips for models:

• Arrive on time
• Ready when the specified time, if indeed make-up itself, should have been ready at the site
• Do not cancel the agreement suddenly. Be reliable so that it can be trusted to shoot next job
• Always improve ourselves in terms of skills poses, make-up and clothing collection
