❓ Q - Can I control how my model poses? (i.e. look down, face the camera, look up, look to side)

(i.e. model, posture, profile shot, look down, face the camera, look up, face away)

There are portrait photography terms that may help:

• profile shot
• three-quarter shot
• head-tilt pose
• hands-on-hips pose
• leaning pose
• S-curve pose
• crossed-arms pose
• hands-in-pockets pose
• sitting pose
• reclining pose

If they don't work or are not what you want, do both of these things together:

1️⃣ Give the model an emotion, attitude, or even an activity that is correlated to the position you want to see.

Here are example words:

• bashful, shy, embarrassed, awkward
• sleepy, relaxed, distracted
