The family portrait and high school senior shot are all very different from a fashion shoot. Choose a specific pose due to determining the type of image you wish to create and what is appropriate. Students learn how to evaluate anatomical structures, image purpose lighting conditions, and the chosen appropriate poses. Students leave with new knowledge and confidence for selecting and creating stunning posed situations. Using what you've learned, your photos will start making sense, pleasing to the eye, and flattering your subjects. In group photos, you will now start seeing the relationships and positions of each other.
