services and even editorial pieces for newspapers and
magazines.

Poses for Photos
When you do this type work, your
talent
agent will expect you to know
how to give lots of different facial expressions. A few are;
happiness, sadness, anger, frustration, elation, and the
list could go on and on but you'll develop some of these
expressive looks as you get further into your commercial
modeling career.
One other thing to consider in
lifestyle model poses is body language. Think of how people
look in different situations - do they appear playful?
unresponsive (arms crossed, etc.)? Once you know these your
posing file will gain momentum and you'll be better equipped
for commercial and lifestyle photo shoots.
