Basic Posing Techniques- Posing Women

This is a free video I offer as an example of what I can teach you in the Posing and Lighting Series I created. You will find a lot of information on the web about how to get an exposure reading and using a softbox, but you have to learn the most flattering angles of the face and body (poses) before you can really apply correct lighting techniques.

I have also created individual videos about posing and lighting Men, Woman, Couples, Studio Lighting, Window Light, and other topics. You can find more free information at www.bobkahnworkshops.com

I should mention, I can turn off the comments and not allow anyone to post their opinions. But, I figure the smart viewers realize there are a lot of jerks who get their jollys off roamng the web leaving stupid, ignorant comments. And when I make any comment, be assured I will have no problem saying it to you in person. Any time you are in Cape Cod, drop by.

the internet is an interesting place. It alows assholes to make comments they would never make to a person face to face. It is obvius many of you have no idea what is involved in posing a subject so the "look good" in their portrait. You idiots probably ask your subjects if the feel good, or you just take 100 images and hope for a good one.

Photographers who actually want to really learn the craft realize what i am demonstrating, then there are the rest of you dopes.

@LeoneClub A professional person will do EVERY THING 100% if not your sloppy and I would not want to use anyone like that, I think he is very condescending person who keep touching her on all parts of her body head body and legs SHE is a person not a dumb manikin. Have respect for your models…

BE Professional in ALL that you do

Can't fault what you are saying, did you know the late, great Monte Zucker by any chance??

Good advice and techniques. And for those concerned about "touching," try communicating with your model -- what you're going to do, why, etc. I do this with my patients and it works. Cheers!
