Posing in Portraits....(post no.148)

STRIKING A RIGHT POSE makes a great difference to the photograph.It is not only necessary to make the subject beautiful but also make body in its best look.

Double chin and long neck........Good illusion can be created of having a long neck just by lowering ur chin and leaning towards the camera....Here will be the opportunity to avoid the double chin.
I TELL MY SITTERS TO HOLD THEIR BREATH WHILE SQUEEZING THE DOUBLE CHIN A BIT FOR FEW SECONDS to avoiding or minimizing the double chin.

SLIGHTLY foreshortening the figure: For an interesting angle, the photographer can stand on a slight higher place, may be a chair, and request his subject to look at him.Not only will it create a unique photograph but will  once again hv the opportunity of reducing the double chin.and less seen the dark circle below the eyes and help make the subject appear thin.

HANDS ON HIPS: In order to avoid ur shoulders from looking a rounded appearance, ask ur subject to put his hands on his hips.......................................................................to  continue...
