What is posing and how it can help you obtain that memorable portrait from your photo?
Posing is appealingly rendering the three dimensional human form in a two dimensional medium. There are two very important elements to consider in posing; the pose must appear natural, and the features of the individual be undistorted.
So, if the pose is natural and the features are rendered normally, in proper perspective, then you will have achieved a major goal, and the portrait will be considered pleasing.
Head and Shoulders- The subject's shoulders should be turned at an angle to the camera - you decide on the angle that most pleases you. If the subject faces the camera, the person will look heavier and wider than actual.
- One shoulder should be higher than the other - the line of the shoulders should not be parallel to the ground.
Feet- Feet should not be together - one foot should be brought forward. The weight of the subject should be on the back leg. If seated, have the subject lean forward from the waist to create a slopping line to the shoulders.
