8 Warm-Up Poses from the GL Method of Flash Photography

Today's video is not a posh sequence with background music and retouched images. It's a raw film that our friend Michael Zebel initially made for Good Light Academy members. They found it very helpful and since it does not contain nudity, he uploaded it to Youtube today.



You will see me walking my model through the 8 poses of Level 1 of the GL Method to Flash Photography. Use these poses at the beginning of your photo shoot. The poses make sure that you see the face of your model as well as her body from all important angles. This way the first photos of your shooting will reveal the chocolate sides of your model. You find out what works and what does not work for her. Have a look how I do it:


In the video, you also see how I make life easy for myself. I use my phone to show the poses to the model. Would you like to do the same?

Download the free guide "Perfect Portraits" (http://tips.goodlightmag.com). 

Let your model imitate the poses one after another while you shoot the photos.



It is no problem if your poses vary from what you see in the guide. There is no need to be exact. Don't make an exact science out of it. The principle of bringing your model in all kinds of angles will work anyway.


Please do me a favor: let me know what you think in the comments and give the video a thumbs-up if you like it.
