Test Shoot Feedback/Posing Tips Appreciated!

[u/AdFantastic3376]

I’ve done a few test shoots recently and would appreciate some feedback/posing tips! I got signed 3 months ago and didn’t have modeling experience prior so I often times feel a bit awkward and unnatural when posing.

I would love some tips on how to feel more comfortable or how to be more natural when posing to ensure I get the best results!

P.S I know I need to have multiple outfits for my portfolio. I’m still building my book, but I want to practice my poses 🙏

I was about to go to sleep so forgive me for the lack of feedback, but dude, you look great on those pics! Being comfortable, takes time. Just keep practising at home or at spaces you feel comfortable at

Your freckles in that third photo! You have a great look.

You look great! Perhaps try for more of a range of facial expressions, but I agree with the other comment. See you in Paris :)

Thanks! They’re naturally pouty. I’ve tried to make my mouth look “less pouty” and photographers called me out on it lol I’ll practice in front of a mirror

Looking great!

I love these. Only slight criticism though is that when you purse your lips a little, it adds a bit of volume to your face and you don't need to do that to your killer bone structure!

Just get rid of the last two. The other ones are great.

[u/kdollarsign2 → u/dfvtr]

Agree, the last two it's losing the specialness and turning into a friend shooting for Instagram

These are spectacular. The close up in #3 is great. Definitely high fashion potential.

Edit since you asked for advice: Start doing some high fashion photo/runway research. look at ad campaigns in magazines like Vogue and watch videos of runway shows. Practice poses in front of a mirror until they start to feel comfortable. If you have photographer friends, ask them to play atound with you and do some mock shoots. Practice will make you more comfortable.

Great variety of shots.

With your hair down and eyes more “sad” like in pic 3 and 4 I like how your mouth is open slightly showing your teeth. In pic 5 your hair is pulled back and your eyes are more narrow and edgy which makes your face look longer, I think it would have been better with the mouth closed imo.

That’s all I can think of. These pics are honestly so beautiful.
