Book Overview
1,000 poses. Every subject. One book.
Whether you're the photographer trying to direct your subject or the model trying to figure out what to do with your hands, this is the visual reference you need on set.
POSE covers over 1,000 poses across every major portrait category. Each pose is shown as a main image with direction for both photographer and model, followed by three variations, so a single page gives you four shootable looks.
Whatever your subject--women, men, couples, families, expecting mothers, or children--there's a dedicated section for it, covering everything from beauty and fashion to boudoir, sports, and business. Every pose includes guidance on hand placement, leg and foot position, and head angle so you understand how to replicate and adapt each look, not just copying a picture.
Three ways to use this book:
- As a posing reference on set: flip to the category, find a starting point, and work through the variations
- As a lookbook before a shoot: browse by subject to plan your session and build a shot list
- As a teaching tool: show models exactly what you're looking for, taking the guesswork out of direction
This book is for you if:
- You shoot portraits, fashion, boudoir, families, or maternity and want a comprehensive visual reference to draw from
- You're a model building your posing vocabulary across every style
- You want maximum variety from every setup without running out of ideas mid-session
With over 1,000 poses across every major subject and style, POSE is the most comprehensive posing reference available for photographers and models. Pick it up before your next shoot and you'll wonder how you worked without it.
