natalie_fox Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 <p>I'm going to be photographing four siblings (3 boys and 1 girl, ages 11, 17, 20 and 21), they're doing it as a present for their parents. Any ideas on different ways of posing them? </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portratisnmotion Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 <p>With four, you can never go wrong with a dimond configuration. Are these going t be in studio, or outdoor? If outdoors, a short wall, or fence is a good way to pose groups with some natural looking stagering. Maybe go with an oval formation with their heads. The the boys sitting in a field just about twilight in a pyramid design, with the girl laying infront works well to for a more formal outdoor shot. <br>Indoors, I would use two stools placed tandom and make a diamond formation. <br><a href="http://www.Britt-Portraits.com">www.Britt-Portraits.com</a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natalie_fox Posted September 7, 2010 Author Share Posted September 7, 2010 <p>Thanks Andy! Those are great ideas thank you so much. The pictures are going to be outdoors in a park. I'm also wondering how to get some candid shots after I do the more formal poses.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
976photo Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 <p>You can also line them up against a fence or a wall, say from tallest to shortest or oldest to youngest, and shoot from an angle so that one is closest to you and then the others form a nice line to the back corner of the image. Hope I explained that well enough.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
