تطوير تصوير وضع النموذج Development of model pose photography

Posing the model Posing is the last thing I want from a model ; far better to let the pose come naturally out of the picture idea , keeping the limbs and body positions simple enough to make good shapes on the flat page . However , the action you have chosen for the picture , though possibly simple and natural , has to be adapted to make it pictorial and yet still believable . So analyze your model's position and her gestures care fully , making sure that every line helps to make the point of the picture . Even the most experienced model needs your help . Nevertheless , a large mirror set up beside the camera can enable the creative and unselfconscious model to adjust her position in the shot under your direction . The most important thing is to give constant encourage ment . Even if the if the session starts shakily , keep your doubts to yourself and photograph ( possibly without film ) while you make improve ments . Remember , the camera looks at her with a cold , fish - like eye and it is your task to add warmth and inspiration .

​​​​​​​N TAUT Striking pose The incline of a vast sand dune on the French Atlantic coest encouraged the model to strike this pose explorted the last rays of the sun , which lit up her robe but let the background in subdued shadow 80-200 mm 200m 1/60 sec at F5.6 , Kodechrome 26. 85A Deceiving the eye When photographing in a public place where nudity was frowned upon , I found this conveniently placed bridge handrail which gave the impression in the picture that the model was wearing less than she really was WEE 105 mm , 1/125 sec . at 14 . Kodachrome 25 , 81 EF Graphic action Giving the model something to do helps her to relax while you are shooting and makes for more " reat pictures . It is an added bonus it the model's action and positioning in the picture helps the graphic quality . There were two more subtleties to this shot One was to add white water - soluble paint to the soapy water to improve its drawing power the other to use white plastic sheeung on the floor to provide the reflected image . mm 1/125 sec at 15.6 Kodechrome 25. 10 CC magenta and polanzer
