    Here is my thought process behind how to pose guys for pictures. Even though Bravo is a model, the posing tips are the same and I use them for portrait photography, how to pose male subjects, how to pose groom portraits at a wedding, engagement shoots, and pretty much anytime I'm posing a human being. I hope these poses for males posing tips are helpful for your poses for a photoshoot when posing males in the future.

    I'm a full-time commercial photographer (in TX). I support my wife and 7 kids with my camera. No part-time job on the side; it's all through the lens. With that said, I ALWAYS learn something when I drop in on one of Vanessa's videos. So wonderful. Thanks, Vanessa!

    This is perfect for newbies like me, I recently worked with a male model and he did most of this stuff and would change poses when he heard the shutter, easiest pics I’ve ever taken, he really did all the hard work I was just trying to fill the frame and not cut limbs lol...thank you for the very useful content you provided here

    What I appreciate about this video, compared to others is the explanation of each poses. The why. Explaining the difference between why men pose with an 90 degree angle, as opposed to others. Opening the chest...Why you want to tilt your head, point your nose etc. It's not just, yeah have good lighting. Yeah, groom yourself. So much in this video.

    Posing people is a very difficult to achieve as every model / client is different. Men and not so slim people are the most challenging !

    Gotta love Vanessa's sense of humor. It's good to see us guy's having their portraits taken. I think women are more photogenic because they're used to being in front of camera's at a young age whereas us guys were not. That's starting to change and this video is helpful to me.

    LOVE your tutorials! @ 3:27 you're talking about high shoulder versus low shoulder. I'm confused why it's called that. It looks (to me) that his shoulders are opposite from what they're being called. I know I'm overthinking it, but Why? THANKS!

    If hands in or out really matters, and that could depend on the subject matter or if he's doing something, his hands are generally in the pocket(s) with thumbs out. Think about what is happening.
    A man basically wants to be portrayed as masculin. All the information about a broad chest and head positioning hold true for most occasions.
    His chest and head are the important things the photographer wants to extenuate for most men when taking a portrait.
    If you need the his hands to be in his posket(s), having the fingers out, tend to attract the viewer's eye away from the upper portion of body. With wide hands down lower it tend to make the chest look not as wide.
    By having the thumbs out instead, by sight his chest and head remain wider looking.
