Speed Posing For Families

For starters, in order to achieve speed posing I recommend using a posing workflow! I'll link the one I use HERE. Next, you want to move your clients as little as possible. I start with my core poses and add variation, keep the kids in the frame and swap out mom and dad. In my Family Posing Course I go in depth about the core poses I use – Line, Bunch, Front and Back. Working with families is a joy, but you have to know how to serve them with excellence. I've used speed posing to guarantee my clients get a full gallery. My mini sessions are 10 minutes, but because of all these tricks I've been able to master them in 7! So, how do you incorporate small movements to create a full gallery?
