Lee,

there are books that will help I know one model place has some and Amazon should have some, my best advice would be to find a model in your area and get some tips from her, you may also try to find a photographer that help give you some direction. I am sorry that I don't live near you would be glad to help.

On top of what Steve mentioned, practice. In front of the mirror and have more photoshoot.

You must work your own poses that do well with you and your body, it is practice, do as much different photos as you can and soon you will see what looks great. You can try to copy magazine's photos, try to dance, or anything indeed may give a good result. Some general poses are exist, you can read about them or search through the web. But, my humble opinion, modeling is a creativity. Good luck! :thumbup:

Hey, lLee.

In modeling, just like in acting, it's just what's in your mind at the present what others are looking at. Whenever you're posing try to take your mind to where you want to accomplish- away from the shot and the photographer- and into your goal at the moment. It takes practice, but it's not hard. The main idea is to forget about the photo and concentrate in how you want or are supposed to appear. Photos kind of show your mind to viewers, so practice and you'll be find.

I'm a photographer at heart more than a model, but I've only done it as a hobby. But I've got all my local friends coming to me for photos,'cause "I relax 'em" -they say. Well that's the point!! :)

Practice and experiment. Practice in front of a mirror but there is no substitute for seeing what the images look like when they come out of the camera.
I shot with Poonam, Halifax NS, 2 weeks ago. She understands her body and what she has to do to make the images look good. She told me from the very beginning which side she photographs best from. For the lingerie shoot we had a mirror set up next to me so that she could she herself and make corrections as necessary. It was obvious that she was very used to posing in front of the mirror. Here are a couple of images from the shoot

Modelling isn't about going to school but there are actually some people who will need help doing that.

Why not try doing things on your own first. In order to get the best expression in pictures you've got to think great things in your mind. Like taking a sexy pics, you should create something sexy in your mind, and as you do that you get the most sexy picture ever. Also happy pictures, do sme thing in your mind, as you do that daily and practice more in front of your mirror, you get to improve

Yupe, "ugly photos" (ie poses that doesn't work out) helps too. There are many poses the mirror can't help. Studying these photos will help in improving your pose.
