Posing Techniques for Glamour Photography

(sharon) #1

Playboy Playmate Holley Dorrough is featured in this series of full-
length poses. By turning her body to the left, dead-on, then to the
right right, Holley was able to create a variety of poses that ac-
cented her legs. Often models will face the camera dead-on, which
normally widens their hips due to lens perspective. Holley avoids
this in the straight-on pose by bending her right leg in. Notice that
in all three poses Holley has one leg as the support leg, one as the
accent leg and how they change. (Camera:Olympus E-500;Lens:
