1,000 poses. Every subject. One book. Whether you’re the photographer trying to direct your subject or the model trying to figure out what to do with your hands, this is the visual reference you need on set. POSE! covers over 1,000 poses across every major portrait category. Each pose is shown as a main image with direction for both photographer and model, followed by three variations, so a single page gives you four shootable looks. Whatever your subject—women, men, couples, families, expecting mothers, or children—there’s a dedicated section for it, covering everything from beauty and fashion to boudoir, sports, and business. Every pose includes guidance on hand placement, leg and foot position, and head angle so you understand how to replicate and adapt each look, not just copying a picture. Three ways to use this book: • As a posing reference on set : flip to the category, find a starting point, and work through the variations • As a lookbook before a shoot : browse by subject to plan your session and build a shot list • As a teaching tool : show models exactly what you’re looking for, taking the guesswork out of direction This book is for you if: • You shoot portraits, fashion, boudoir, families, or maternity and want a comprehensive visual reference to draw from • You’re a model building your posing vocabulary across every style • You want maximum variety from every setup without running out of ideas mid-session With over 1,000 poses across every major subject and style, POSE! is the most comprehensive posing reference available for photographers and models. Pick it up before your next shoot and you'll wonder how you worked without it. Review: Fuel your imagination - The book is a great source of inspiration for photographers at any stage of their craft. The huge number of poses are a great framework for further experimentation based on suggestions provided. My portrait photography has progressed as a direct result of reading this fine tome. And, yes, the author has the audacity to suggest that genders exist, a suggestion that has fanned the flames of relativism by other reviewers. I don't mind at all. Review: Good but basic - If you want really basic poses this is for you. I personally was hoping for more dynamic poses.

Good but basic
If you want really basic poses this is for you. I personally was hoping for more dynamic poses.

Exactly what I needed
I really like this book. Well written, well thought out, easy to use right out of the gate. Can’t wait to put it to the test on a photo session. I like the size too. Easy for “on the go”.

A must have for beginners
I adore this book. I like to direct my model on how to pose. I like to be organic but some times when I get stuck this book really helps. I take it to every shoot. It covers most events, but would love if there was a sequel or more content.

Excellent reference book
I use this book when I’m doing either prep or on the field during a photo session. It is so helpful. I just wish there were more pages, but it’s worth it because there’s so much. Maybe I’m being greedy.

It's ok
I wish this book had more poses for models. I'm a fashion model so I was a bit disappointed.

Sugerencias para el fotografo amateur
Buen libro para los que empezamos con temas de fotografía y que buscamos ideas para tomar fotografías de personas. Está padre la división de temas, ya sea poses de mujeres, hombres, niños, familia, etc. También hay buenas explicaciones sobre lo que puedes y no debes de hacer.

A complete selection...
As an amateur photographer I am asked by my 'sitters' how to or can you recommend a certain type of pose, with this book there are multiple poses to suit all types in many different situations, I have found it useful on many occasions to give it to a potential 'sitter' prior to the action of the shoot, it saves me time and helps the subject decide what they can contribute to the finished article.
