Here are some quick tips for you and your guests posing on the Red Carpet Runway!

1) Breathe & Smile

Although sometimes concentration enhances a good photograph, don’t hold your breath for a modeling pose -  breathe and appear at ease. If you have a naturally beautiful smile, shine it with pride.

Add variety to your poses, your facial expressions can make or break your modeling poses.

2) Have Good Posture
When modeling, always be conscious of your posture. Remember to keep your back straight and your shoulders up. Slouching will enlarge the appearances of your mid section. Always remember to flex your stomach, your abdomen will appear more toned if flexed.

3) Show Your Assets
Make sure your best assets shine – it could be your perfect legs, your toned arms, your cleavage or your butt. Keep in mind what poses and angles will best show off these body parts on camera. This could be a forward lean, use of your arms or legs, or a backside shot with your head turned toward camera.

4) Show Off  The Limbs
When posing, make sure to differentiate your arms and legs with asymmetrical poses. If you have one arm straight, bend the other arm. The bend will make the modeling pose look more real. Continue the asymmetry to your legs. If one leg is locked straight, give the other leg a casual bend.

5) Know the Camera
Don’t look directly into the camera for all poses. Look away with a mix of head and eye poses. Look off to the right or left side or give a wave to the “crowd”. Remember, your head and neck can remain stationary and your eyes can do the work.
