6 Posing Tips

When you want to practice posing you may have to think outside of the box depending on where you live and who you may or may not have around you. You do not need professional models to practice your posing. Consider these posing tips when practicing on your own.

1. Use a mirror and pose yourself. In the field you may have to mimic a pose to direct a model or client from a distance so why not give it a go in the mirror.
2. Pose your kids.
3. Pose your spouse or significant other
4. Post your pets.
5. Pose toys or figurines
6. Enlist friends and family members to try posing large groups, odd number groups, even number groups, young people, old people, pairs of varying heights, sex, weight, and skin tones. 

Try your best to practice as many variable situations so that you may feel prepared when its time to pose a paying client.
