What Makes or Breaks a Model’s Success? PART 3: Pose/Facial Expression
Knowledge and ability in diverse posing and facial expressions...
Knowing a great deal of diverse posing and facial expression can give you a leg up on competition that lacks it. It would increase your ability to getting more clients because having a diverse pose/expression list is a huge boost in having more opportunities in creating better and more interesting photos.
When starting, or before starting to model it would benefit you and your career to do some heavy research into different facial expressions and poses. Better yet learning some skills that require you to know your body well would benefit your poses and facial expressions, such as acting, dancing, and yoga.
Observe, observe, observe! By observing and having strong attention to details on model photography would benefit you by learning new poses and facial expressions you may want to add to your pose/expression list. Some may work for you, some may not… and note not every pose or facial expression works for everyone; some may only work well for one person and not for another. Experiment yourself in a mirror or even in photoshoots, and see the end results if that does work for you. If you don't grow your pose/expression list you won't grow as a model and especially your career.
