  • 30.05.2020

Portrait photography is considered the most difficult of all photography. The purpose of a portrait photo session is to show not only the external beauty of the model, but also to convey the inner essence and its character.

Ideas and poses for a portrait photo shoot

Before I offer some ideas for a portrait photo session, I would like to note that very good and vital photographs are obtained at the moment of surprise, especially when shooting close-up model's face. For example, it can be a shot when a girl smells fragrant flowers, and at the same time enjoys the inhaling aroma.

Also, in order for the photography to be successful, you need to rehearse some poses for a portrait photo shoot. The most natural postures are sitting, standing and reclining.

Here are some ideas for home portrait photography:

  1. In order to get into character, start with the simplest shots of yourself lying on the couch or sitting on the windowsill, holding a mug of hot tea in your hand and daydreaming about something.
  2. Try taking some black and white shots. As a rule, they always turn out much more naturally and fully convey the state of a person. For example, you can just wrap yourself in a blanket and play with facial expressions. Such pictures will give you a lot of positive emotions.
  3. As for the pose for a portrait photo session at home, it is better to be photographed while sitting, while throwing one leg over the other or bringing them together. But in no case do not pull them towards the lens, otherwise they will turn out to be very long. If you want to take a photo lying down, then point your legs in the opposite direction from the lens, while bending them slightly at the knees. Stretch your arms forward and look thoughtfully into the lens.
  4. And, of course, the most the best photos are considered family, so make a family portrait that can be framed and hung on the wall. For a general photo, everyone can dress up, for example, in national costumes, or men in jackets, and women in beautiful dresses.

The directors tried to show in men the image of a tough, cynical hero, and in women - a prudent, self-serving person, a vamp without a shadow of a smile on her face.

Criminal carelessness and no morals, distrust and pessimism, brutal men and femme fatales, gangsters and detectives, confusion and anxiety, deceit and hypocrisy - all this is noir style.

Photo shoot with smoke (colored smoke)

The most important thing is to come up with a subject for photography in which you want to use it. Smoke in shooting is used for brighter photographs, giving them mystery, mystery, fabulousness, or to create a certain atmosphere of wartime, disaster, smoky space. Yes, anything! Smoke looks great against the backdrop of nature in cloudy weather or at night.


Photographer Alexander Kozlov

Regular or colored smoke can be used. The effect is achieved by using special smoke bombs and torches. Moreover, the color palette is very diverse: red, yellow, green, blue, orange, purple, white, black, blue, burgundy, pink, azure. Artificial smoke is non-toxic and does not leave marks on the body and clothing.

And feel free to come up with your Ideas for photo shoots, perhaps it is she who will be the trend in the world of photo and photo shoots.

Since the article turned out to be very large, we decided, for your convenience, to divide it into two parts. Read the second part below

A studio photo shoot is always a professional shoot, as a result of which you can get high-quality portrait and other photographs. Many associate a photo studio with the usual photo genres: glamour, fashion, etc. But the studio is also suitable for a lot of all kinds of ideas, which will be discussed further.

Idea options

The choice of a photo shoot idea will depend on the capabilities of the studio itself. Nowadays, you can find both the most ordinary studios with one or two options for locations, as well as real "monsters" in their field - the ultimate dream of any photographer. Typically, such studios have everything from a chic list of locations to the technical capabilities of the premises - the presence of additional lights, fans, smoke machines, projectors, mirrors, rain machines, which will allow you to realize an endless number of worthwhile ideas.

The choice of idea also depends on your financial capabilities. It is most costly to implement genre, complex ideas that require the obligatory presence of a themed costume and accessories.

On the second place in terms of costs are photo shoots in the genres of beauty, classics, romance. Here you will need the help of a professional makeup artist and hairdresser, but you can handle the clothes yourself, limiting yourself to your own wardrobe.

Pay attention to the following options:

"Wet" photo shoot

The idea of ​​a “wet” photo session, if, of course, the studio has everything necessary for its implementation, is appropriate in the images of a mermaid, river nymph, naiad. In general, it is not necessary to have a device to simulate rain in the frame. Just let the photographer's assistant or your friend spray water over you with a sprayer a second before it clicks, and then you get a beautiful and unusual light drizzle effect. It's not scary if the drops get on your face, hair, with good lighting, this will add a velvety effect to your skin, and a special radiance to your eyes.

Seasons


Realization of the idea of ​​the image within the framework of the seasonal theme of the season, for example, a girl-autumn or a beauty-spring. For this photo session, let's say, if you want to embody the image of autumn, you will need leaves as attributes, cones, as an option - a wicker basket with vegetables and fruits - as a symbol of the harvest, you can also grab a few large yellow pumpkins.

Your makeup and clothing should be done exclusively in autumn colors, preferably in a gold palette. You can also decorate open areas of the body with sparkles or gold plating.

light erotica


Nudity in this genre of photography is not welcome, but a hint of passion is. It is only necessary to slightly indicate erotic notes in your image. For example, it can be a look, a pose, a lowered shoulder strap, etc.

This idea is good for the studio, first of all, because it requires the model to be uninhibited in acting, and in a place where there are a lot of prying eyes, you can’t get too into the role.

In the studio, you can shoot all kinds of erotica, ranging from light erotica to Nude - complete nudity.

Black and white photo


Of course, any photo by and large can be converted to black and white. But it is in the studio, if the goal is to make a photo session of such a plan, you will be able to achieve the best result. So the photographer will initially set the necessary lighting, or even immediately switch to black and white photo mode.
Color accents in such photographs look interesting.

For example: convert everything to black and white except lips, eyes, or some other details. Then the shooting result will be somewhat similar to the style of the famous Sin City comic book series.

Ideas of a futuristic and thematic nature

Here, the genres of steampunk, dark, gothic, futures, etc. are suitable for implementation. These images require preparation. Costumes should be well-designed, and hair, make-up and attributes should tie in with the overall look.

Image options: alien, vampire, robot, angel or some other unusual creature.

Shooting with a spotlight

The studio needs to use all the technical potential that this place has. Spotlights are good for decorating incendiary ideas: rock star, punk, guitar playing, dance, etc.

Depending on the color of the spotlight, one or another idea can be beaten. For example: red for more daring and turbulent topics: dance, the theme of hell, passion, blue - for more calm ones: fashion, winter, sleeping beauty.

Shooting with a projector

A photo session with projectors is not yet massively popular, so you have the opportunity to be among the first and get really not hackneyed shots, but something new and fresh. In choosing an idea, everything is simple: a lot depends on the content of the picture that will be transmitted to you and the surface behind you.
With the help of a projector, you can beat a lot of ideas, but it is better to pay attention to fairy-tale themes.

Photo session in motion

In the studio, the photographer may offer you to take shots in motion that will betray the dynamics of the photo. Such a photo shoot is suitable for those who love to dance and know how to move smoothly and beautifully.

Shooting with animals

At the same time, your choice should not stop only at cats or dogs. All pets look great in the frame, from rabbits and parrots to turtles and snakes. But a photo with a large python or a large dog will be especially beneficial.
The genre of such photos can be different: fabulous, gothic, etc.

Classic

Here you can simply dress elegantly and bring your image to the ideal: beautiful makeup and hairstyle, a minimum of accessories and attributes. A classic evening dress will do: a long dress, a muff, perhaps a tiara.

Retro

To implement this idea in the studio, prepare retro things for a photo shoot that would relate to the style of any decades of the 20th century (except for the 80s and 90s). It can be in the style of the twenties, when burlesque motifs came into fashion, or it can be in the fifties, during which the incomparable Marilyn Monroe shone. Try to stick to only one style in the photo shoot, without mixing them, otherwise there may not be the best pun.

cosplay

This includes ideas for the embodiment of characters from cartoons, movies, games, books, etc. If you have a favorite character, such as Lara Croft or Barbie, you should try to find as many elements as you can to connect with that character. So, in the case of Lara Croft, this is a repetition of the hairstyle, make-up of the character, her demeanor, but, most importantly, copying her costume and attributes - pistols, knives, a backpack, and so on. In the case of Barbie, you will need a puffy dress, preferably pink, curls in the hair and a copy of the make-up of this popular doll - arrows, false eyelashes of incredible length, soft pink or beige lipstick and gloss.

It is not easy to make a beautiful photo session in the studio, you need to prepare the images that you want to embody. Even if you are going for a portfolio, it is still better to think over several options. To be honest, without props and ideas in the studio, you can only take a picture for a passport. Of course, you will definitely be offered certain props (most often - fans, hats), and the photographer will also show you finished work. But not every image will suit you.

You saw how some girls look very harmonious, for example, on a bed in a peignoir, while others only cause a smile and bewilderment. It's not about the professionalism of the photographer or the equipment, but about your ability to try on a fictional image and match it to your perception. For example, if you are shackled in life, you are unlikely to open up to a stranger. A nude photo shoot is most likely not for you at all.

As for the props, studio items alone are simply not enough to implement the ideas. For each image, it is worth choosing individual details, those that, in your opinion, will most clearly reflect the idea. It is also worth working on facial expressions at home. The mirror is the best way to tell if you get what you want. Do not forget that your ideas need to be tied to the studio interior.

The most successful images for a photo shoot

    1. Images for a photo shoot in a studio in retro and gangster style look very original. You can realize both in one visit. For example, for a lady from the last century, you will need a short lace black dress, pinned up curly hair, a long cigar holder, beads, a fan, pumps. It will not be difficult to transform into a gangster girl: replace your shoes with high boots with a square heel, put on a hat, leggings, put on a jacket or coat over the dress. Replace the mouthpiece with a pistol. Makeup can be chosen evening, in dark shades.
    1. You can combine retro style and romantic look. For this photo shoot, you need a beautiful dressing table mirror, a small ottoman or a chair in the studio. From things take a translucent peignoir, a silk dressing gown, stockings. Makeup is best done in style
    1. or natural. A long string of pearls, a large powder with a cotton pom-pom, a blush brush will complement the image. You can play in front of the mirror, imagining yourself as a languid lady of the last century or a romantic girl who is going on a date with a smile.
    1. The ethnic image is quite difficult to implement, but insanely beautiful as a result. He needs a costume (the most popular is oriental), as well as things that symbolize belonging to a particular people.
    1. Hobby. If none of the above ideas suits you because of the interior of the studio, try to have a photo session with your favorite hobby. For example, if you love karaoke, grab a microphone, put on your favorite outfit and go! If you like to draw, take an easel and paints with you. For a more accurate effect, you can even stain yourself a little with paint. The advantage of such an image will be its naturalness - you do not need to "transform".
    Laugh girl. If you always find it difficult to concentrate, you can easily organize a fun photo shoot in the studio, just fooling around and having fun. Bring colorful outfits with you (funny striped tights will come in handy), braid your pigtails or make a ponytail. From the props you can take Stuffed Toys, pillows, soap bubbles, ball.

Images created during a photo shoot in the studio are in no way inferior to those that can be used outdoors. As for the benefits, you can realize any idea, regardless of the weather outside.

If you are suddenly overtaken by a creative impasse, new ideas have run out, or you are just looking for a little hint for photographing a girl, then you can use sketches as a starting cheat sheet, because they are one of the most important stages in preparing for. The more carefully thought out, the more interesting photos you will receive as a result of photography. Many professional photographers use this technique in preparation and during a photo shoot. Poses of girls for a photo shoot from this article should be used as initial guidelines, and it is best to review and discuss the suggested views with your model, especially if she is inexperienced. Thus, you will be able to establish psychological contact with the model. During the photo shoot, feel free to ask the model for her opinion on what poses she likes best. This helps both the model and the photographer feel more confident, and in the end, get decent shots. It will be very useful if, before the photo shoot, the model thinks about what she wants to see in the pictures, what does she want to emphasize? Innocence? Sexuality? Maybe something romantic? Or some special character traits? What options for poses will she do better? The following poses are a hint not only for the model, but also for the photographer, they can be printed or sent to your phone and carried with you as a cheat sheet that will help you in a difficult moment.

2. Very often, when shooting portraits, both the model and the photographer forget about the position of the hands. However, you can get something creative if you ask the model to play with her hands, trying different head and face positions. The main thing to remember is one rule - no flat, tense palms: the brushes should be soft, flexible and, preferably, they should not be turned directly into the frame with the palm or the back of the hand.

51. A simple and perfect pose. Make sure that the model's face is not covered by her arm or shoulder. The look directed to the bottom creates a special romantic mood. The raised elbow points away from the camera.

52. Pose for a full-length portrait near a wall. Take a photo of the model from the back.

53. Exquisite pose for sports models. Ask the model to bend the body in the shape of the letter S, change the position of the hips and arms, turn the head in different directions.

54. The use of lightweight fabric creates endless options for the model and the photographer, and great shots can be taken. It is very beneficial to use this pose outdoors in windy weather.

55. Light and simple pose that emphasizes the lines of the female figure. Ideal as a silhouette against a bright background.

56. Light and gentle posture. The model sits on bent legs, but does not lean too much on the feet. The gaze is directed over the shoulder.

57. Simple but great pose. Works in various conditions, both indoors and outdoors. Also suitable for shooting a silhouette against a bright background.

58. Using a wall or any other similar object is very helpful when creating various poses. For example, walls can serve as a support for hands.

59. Very beautiful and elegant pose. Remember that the main thing in this pose is that the model should lean slightly forward from the back of the sofa (chairs, benches, etc.).

In conclusion, I would like to note once again that all the examples shown serve only as a starting point, since there are an infinite number of variations for each pose. Do not be afraid to experiment, the model can change the facial expression, smile, turn of the head and body, the position of the arms or legs, etc. Even the smallest change in the pose on the part of the model or a change in the shooting angle on the part of the photographer can completely change the same pose. Try changing the distance between you and the model, as well as resorting to different framing and composition of the shot. In general, improve through trial and error, it’s not in vain that they say: “Learn from mistakes.” The more variations you try, the better the results will be.
