Stop Memorizing Poses. Start Directing Clients.
Posing is one of the most challenging subjects you will face as a portrait photographer!
Memorization can only take you so far before you lose authenticity. A photographer might memorize poses, use example images or even posing cards to have the client repeat in front of the camera, but you still face the age old issue of poses looking too posed - that's where we come in..
"If It Doesn't Look Right, It Probably Isn't"
You are able to look at an image and notice that something is off, but can you pinpoint why? Our in-depth analysis on posing nuances and body language will help you to recognize problems areas in your posing from head to toe.
Words Every Client Will Say:
"We're awkward, but we want to be natural, fun, & romantic"
Your clients will pay you money because they want authentic images. Your goal is to create consistently incredible images with directional cues to elicit genuine, authentic emotions.
For example, the image on the left happened right after we told him to purr in her ear like a kitty cat, you know, just because.
Overcome Common Posing Challenges
In our updated bonus masterclass, we review common posing challenges, including:
1) Posing for Plus-Sized Couples, 2) Posing for Couples with height differences
Myth: "Photographers Are In Trouble - Jobs Are Being Outsourced To The Camera Itself"
Advancements in camera technology minimize the skills needed to operate a camera, but what will never replaced? YOU. We will give you the tools you need to help hone your posing, directing, and communication skills to help you become a director and not just a photographer.

While the Wedding Workshops contain videos on posing, "The Complete Posing Workshop" goes further in-depth and teaches the small nuances of posing like body language, angles, and expressions. We cover more posing cues to get genuine reactions from your models and clients; and we also include more "do's and don'ts," with analysis and student critique.
