How to Pose in Pictures (How to look lean and tall)

HOW TO POSE FOR INSTAGRAM OR PERSONAL PHOTOS

Don't hide from photos! If you're worried about looking to big and feeling like you can never find the right angle and pose, don't worry I've got you covered.

If you're a photographer who loves making pictures, totally. But, if you haven't had a chance to learn about posing, it means that some of your pictures will be amazing and others will flop. You need to know how to pose in pictures.

That's why it's so important to learn how to pose people so you don't have to rely on them being amazing (because let's face it, most won't be). Here are my keys to posing success!

Not a photographer but never know how to pose. You’re a gifted teacher. Great delivery, articulate explanation with excellent examples.

YouTube knows I don't know how to pose for photos and made me watch this. Thank you! Learned a lot!

I HATE having my picture taken as i always feel like i look horrible. add to the fact that my body is now "morphing" from a young lean thing to a ....well, not lean nor young thing i just really feel self conscious. Your tips are not only great for pictures but for just being out there in life and being able to stand in such a way that makes you look better and more confident than you really feel! this is a HUGE gift you are giving us! thank you! and, you are such a beautiful person...inside and out, talented and caring. thank you for your time and your talent.

The fact that she uses girls who mi8 not really fit into the ideal body type category and then show you their pretty photos!
It really makes u feel like aaahhh!! its never been about having perfect body, look at these beautiful women.Thankyou for that, for making a relatable content.

[teresasteele]

Never thought about all she taught, and it really does make a difference to the end shot. Very clear tutorial, a natural teacher.

I’m always unhappy that I look even bigger in photos than I really am and I never know how to pose. Thank you for this video, you explained so well. I will definitely try some of these in our upcoming summer trip!

[nikkimorrison]

OMG! Finally someone explains how to pose! It has been a lifelong struggle. Thank you. Now I understand.

[sleepbaby]

Omg the shoulders back and down, elongate the neck, suck in but not up, 5th position, hands in pockets, elbows back made a HUGE difference in my pose!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾💜💜

I particularly appreciate how clear and concise these tips are! Like, I could put these in a bullet list and they're easy to remember. Weight on the back foot, "pull that string" and create that "S" curve, create negative space, and anything square with the camera will be viewed at full width. I know there's more too it than that, but I feel like I can actually remember these tips! :D Thanks so much!

[mariearcos]

i'm curvy and appreciate the tips here.. my friends have asked me why i stand different ways.. now I know why.... "creating negative space is great!!! thank you .

[maryj]

This is just random in my feed. The topic is interesting, so i clicked and i subscribed right away.

[sanarehan]

This is actually PHENOMENAL! So helpful and all of the tips are incredibly logical and make sense based on the simple concept of optical illusion. 🥰

[amieshawilliams]

I absolutely love when I stumble across a value added video. Even if it is 2 years old, good information never expires! So many helpful tips, from creating body triangles and negative space to turning the hip back and resting on it. Your tips have totally taken my photos to the next level. Thanks a bunch!

I'm a wardrobe stylist and I have to take fitting photos and constantly encounter actors that are so uncomfortable being photographed for fittings. This is so helpful and will make my job easier and sell the outfits I put together to show the director/agency/client. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[jeanbonnyman]

Thank you, Gia! I'm not a photographer, but I do stand in photos a lot with family and friends. For 54 years I have wanted someone to teach me how to stand in a photo. I knew there were techniques to learn, but never had a teacher...until now! Friendly, fun, and authentic: that's you!

[elsapatuky]

IG model tutorials weren’t doing it for me. Now this is *actually helpful*

[linht]

I’m not a photographer but I get family pics done annually. My 10 year-old is a “natural’ and always looks awesomely natural and cute and I’m a dolt, hahaha! Can’t wait to apply your tips! Thank you!

[myrabernard-cade]

I like this video because I am going to my 40-year reunion and I will be in a few pictures and I want to look my best. Thank you for the ideas.
