The Curvy Girl's Guide to Posing : 10 Easy, Bold Plus Size Poses for Women

Society tells us that plus size can't be sexy, but we reject that 100%. Your body, whatever size it has decided to be, is beautiful and sexy and sensual. If you're feeling anything less than that, try these plus size poses to spice things up for yourself. Don't get it twisted though, I don't believe in special posing for plus size women because we can do anything. But I know you want to be photographed by someone that creates a safe and welcome space for your body, hence this page.


These are my favorite poses in the studio, and I guarantee they will help you feel bold and confident in front of the camera. And the best part? You can do it all from the comfort of your own home, no photographer needed. But when you are ready to create some art and magic, give me a call...


Before You Get Started: My Top 3 Posing Tips


CREATE SHAPES WITH YOUR BODY

When it comes to posing, it helps to think of your body like a geometry assignment. If you're in a pose and feel like it needs some pizazz, think about how you can create a line or connect to make a triangle. That could look like opening up your legs, connecting your hands to your hips, or any other combination of movements.


KEEP MOVING

The great thing about digital cameras today is that you can take unlimited photos. This means you have all the time in the world to try different things! So keep moving as you pose to give yourself variety. You don’t have to do drastic changes either! Slight movements like repositioning your hand or turning your face just a bit can make a huge difference.


THINK ABOUT THE GARMENT

Whatever you're wearing, WORK IT! If it's a flowy dress, show off that movement by twirling. Wearing some perfectly tailored pants? Get your legs going in interesting positions. The pose doesn't have to be all about the outfit, but what you're wearing can help you come up with some amazing photos!
