Posing ideas for best friends Help!!! I need some creative ideas for senior portraits. Next Saturday will be the session, I'm praying for good weather. The seniors will be two best friends (female). Portraits will be not only individual but also together. If anyone has any ideas they can share on best friends posing together please let me know. I have been looking on the Internet but have no luck on best friends poses. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you ~~Cherie~~

Cherie, I really need more to work with- things that you know of they maybe into and where you would be doing these??? but here is the standard: BODY POSES: *back to back-arms crossed. * head shots close. * both in cap and gowns-one fixing the others cap(as in straightening it-looking at each other. * Mirror shot one in just gown in front of mirror, the other in cap and gown is only the reflection in the Mirror. * both in gowns throwing caps in air. PROP SHOTS: * uising car: * both looking out the window. * in cap and gown:one in the drives seat, the other pushing the car. * one with the door open and leaning on it with the other sitting on the drivers fender laying back against the windshield. AT THE SCHOOL: * in front of school sign-if on the ground then one on top and one leaning against it. * one in cap and gowns- walking into the school grounds. * then the same walking out of school grounds. * on the field- just walking in gowns holding caps. * the hug- in gowns holding caps. *in the bleechers- so many of these. sitting back to back in gowns with caps pulled down over eyes.knees up .si`esta type. * going through year book.in caps and gowns. well here are some - if I knew more about yoour shoot-I may be of more help. hope this gives you something to work with, Debby

Thanks Debby... Thank you for the great ideas. The photos will be outdoors. They are wanting to wear regular clothes for these photos because they do not have their cap and gown yet.

Cherie, you may want to ask them if they or thier friends have any friends or brothers and sisters who graduated from this school- if they still have thier caps and gowns- borrow them or you should offer to buy them( I used to have quite the collection) even if you get one set-cute picture: them together one with cap on both playing tug of war with the gown(each has a shoulder of gown, so that the front and neck are facing camera) just a thought....

The two girls are leaving it up to me to decide where they want their photos taken. We live in a small country town with acess to a park with a fountain(where the fairy pics I took in my gallery), There is also an old train station, and old wharehose buildings with cobblestone roads all in the same area as the park. I think we will go there because there is so much in that area. They told me they want single shots of them and also photos of them together. I'm just starting out and trying to pose two friends is difficult for me to decide what to do with them. they want to start around 4:30 pm. I hope that helps thanks

One I often enjoy doing is having them pose on their stomachs with their heads leaning on their hands (propped on their elbows) ... it's funny trying to describe it. Here's an example taken at a local park ...

Hello Cherie, OK... here are a couple of ideas I can think of: I hope these ideas can help you. This is what I love about this site, instead of one photographer's great ideas you get many. Have fun and good luck!! Jeff

Also... since your taking individual photos and photos of them together, you might want to suggest a sort of collage for them. Maybe have a photo of the two of them in the middle with their individual photos on either side of it. Hope this helps also! Jeff
