In today’s post: Get better photos with these 10 photo poses for boys.
Whether you’re an aspiring photographer or a parent who wants to take better photos of her own kids, posing is an important part of taking good pictures. Some people assume their subject can pose themselves or just act “natural” during a photo shoot. However, that’s harder said than done. Most people who are being photographed feel a little (or a lot) uncomfortable, and if your subject feelsawkward, chances are they will look awkward in the photos. Some guidance and a few pose suggestions will go along way toward ensuring the pictures turn out great. So today I’m sharing 10 go-to photo poses for boys.
Hey, I’m not a professional photographer, but I do like to take pictures. I always tell people that the best way to get really great photos is to hire a pro. But there are things even beginners can to do help improve their photos, and that’s what my photography posts are here for!
10 PHOTO POSES FOR BOYS: STANDING
Photo pose #1: Basic standing pose, hands in pockets. Standing poses are great! They don’t require any props or any special setup so you can take them anywhere. There are two main things to remember. First, your subject will generally look more natural and relaxed if most of his weight is on one foot with the other leg slightly bent. If he stands with both legs straight and his weight centered between them he may look stiff. Second, you usually need to do something with his hands so they’re not just hanging at his sides. I like the look of one hand in a pocket:
Both hands in pockets can work too. Just be sure he doesn’t shove his hands too deeply in the pockets – he can even just hook one thumb in a front or back pocket. Note that the weight is shifted to one leg in the photos below:
You can even ask your subject to cross one leg in front of the other.
For all of the photos above, I stood on a stool so that I was above my subject’s eye level. This is generally a flattering angle because it slims the face and makes the eyes look a little bigger. But you can experiment with shooting from slightly below as well:
This can look cool when the setting sun is just behind your subject.
Anytime you try a new pose, be sure to take a full body shot, a half body shot, and some closeups. That way you can get lots of different looking photos from just one pose.
