Photographing seniors is always so much fun just for the sheer variety of outfits and poses we can put together! Narrowing down to your favourite shots can be REALLY hard, but I’ve noticed a definite trend in which poses senior clients tend to choose for their gift prints, wall art, and album covers. Here are the top faves, in no particular order!
1) THE CLASSIC
This is *always* a winner, and the type of shot most usually chosen for gifts for family, announcement cards, and wallet prints.
2) THE CASUAL
When it comes to seated shots, this pose ranks high on the fave list! Cool and casual, but still perfectly posed with careful attention paid to limb placement and the tilt of the head. Sitting pretty!
3) THE EMOTIVE
A shot that elicits the “oohs” and “aahs” and “you look so beautiful!” comments. Seniors and moms both love what I call “the eyelash shot”, and it almost always makes it’s way into the album or wall collage.
4) THE WIDE ANGLE
Seated or standing, that one shot where you get to turn on a little attitude shows off that sassy or dramatic side of your personality. Wide angle shots are more cinematic and include more of the landscape, so your pose has to be killer to stand out in that space!
5) THE LOOKAWAY
A magazine type vibe that takes a break from the usual portraits with eye contact and smiles. Wistful, serene, the perfect “un-posed pose”, like you’ve been snapped walking dreamily through the field or by the seaside.
