I've taught thousands of people just like you how to master posing. And believe me, almost every photographer struggles with successfully posing their subjects.
In this video, I'm giving away some of my favorite posing tricks that will work every time you are photographing a male.
People hate being posed until you pose them well. That's my aim for this video! Enjoy!!

my man
This is hilariously relateble
Yes!!
One of the things I learned: looking like a Disney Prince makes posing a minor problem
He is super handsome guy! he is perfect model . was he in the commercial?
Do you know who he is?
Hahahahha well no matter what he looks amazing but with these tips he looS even better!
Luckily most of us don't have that issue
Same thoughts. If I was only as good looking as him 😂
As a professional lawn mower, this video sheds a lot of insight as to how I'll approach riding my lawn mower when on the prowl for 304s.. thanks for posting!
🤣🤣

Step 0: Look good.
Guy: *stands*
Jerry: disagrees with guy's entire existence
😂
Guy: *stands*
Jerry: "And I took that personal"
😆😆
damn😂
😂😂
no matter how bad pose is,that dude looks great.
The model isn't that bad looking either haha
@Bruh guy 🅥 hahhaha exactly this guy got good handsome face thought he is an actor
ludwin
@@BIGAMBERFAN His name is Ludwin?
Exactly😂
As an artist who also appreciates photography I had no idea how much psychology went into posing! This was very insightful, keep doing these when you have time :)

I'm not photographer, but I do comic illustration as hobbies. And for me, draw realistic people is HARD. Especially thinking their poses & emotions and how it affects all body parts.
This tips really helpful.
As an illustrator, this was VERY insightful - I will be putting these tips to good use when thinking about poses for characters. Thank you so much for this!
yep
I thought the same
Yes
That’s funny considering I also get inspiration (on photography) in like random poses in illustration and it’s easy to understand because they tend to over exxage the pose
I mean, the issue he is avoiding you can change in your illustration. For example, you can just not draw a double chin.
One thing I didn’t see mentioned but something I picked up on was how well he worked to make his model comfortable. He made some self deprecating jokes and built up how good the model looked in order to build confidence and relaxed. Excellent work
Wanna get high?
@@Daniel-jd5fl real
I mean.. That guy already looked confident to me from the beginning
@@vanyr237 you can be confident but not completely comfortable and relaxed
he's just doing normal banter you're overthinking it lmao
Inspirational. A no-nonsense tutorial on how to photograph (and film!) men at their best. Brilliant! On a very personal level I hadn't a CLUE on how to pose when a photographer asked me to say 'cheese' to the camera. Now I know HOW to present myself to my best advantage! And, more importantly, how I can instruct others in front of my camera lens. Thank you for such insightful instruction.
Love the way you're having so much fun with making of this video
Ludwig do be everywhere those days
When your pic requires some mogul moves
On the YT home page (mobile) this video is right above a Ludwig video. I don’t even watch Ludwig
who is Ludwig?
Tf Ludwig why yu here lol
BOYS
I'm not a photographer, but this video has definitely given me great insight into how to pose as a male. I feel like my photos are lackluster because I do not have any idea how to pose...lol Thank you so much for this tutorial and Godspeed!
Yeah same here...
Yeah me too...
My my gf won't complain abt me...lol
ruclips.net/user/shortssZncwqbABO0?feature=share 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the tutorial. I 'm a skinny guy and got no clue as to how to strike the right pose. Will try your trips.
Agreed! I’ll be using this more for my own photos rather than someone else’s
I'm not even a photographer or planning to be one, but your instruction was so enticing, i watched i all the way through. Great job, thank you for sharing
You have brilliantly shown the artistry behind this type of photography
he just looks to good even the "worst" shots look really good
yeah .i think so too.its just depend on person body build and looks
Did I just watch this? For free!? What a bargain! Best I've found on RUclips so far! Thank you so much Jerry!
You're very welcome!
@@JerryGhionisPhotography in an upcoming video, I'd love to see how to pose plus sized men who aren't used to modeling. Been looking broad and wide, and there seems to be no tutorials around on this subject.
damn tell someone you get payed for advertising without telling someone you get payed for advertising
@@Robinss0n there’s no ads in the vid
@@3bdullah666 im not talking about the video pal
You made it onto Beavis and Butthead! Congratulations 🎉
Getting the opportunity to work with this man and listening to him him position the model was such a exquisite experience! Learned so much and so grateful I had the opportunity 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 thank you for sharing your knowledge
I dont need tips for poses. I watch JoJo
@@igoriigori5071 Jojo is a goldmine of pose
Same
Then why did you click on a video with tips for posing? Just to make a stupid attention-craving comment?
@@amsivertson its joke. u know? stupid-attention people can joking. BTw jojo poses really interesting, its more about art, than real photo-models thing
@@N008ST3R Lol he didn't get the joke
I just decided that this is gonna be my pose for the rest of my life
This is gold for my new social photos!! Thanks a lot sir!!
Thank you very much for this video. I always hated being "posed" in photos growing up but then again I never really wanted to be in many photos. I am a loner and I prefer photos of places without people. I don't follow celebrity or fashion in anyway, I dont look at those types of ads or magazines with those style of photos. Only recently I learned that I should frame people in photos rather than my usual of framing them out. I actually try going to places on weekdays when most people are at work to look for photos to take. I avoid taking photo's of people so much that now I have come full circle and become curious on how you do it. I learned quite a bit from your video today 😁.
These tutorials are my favourite, easy to follow, lots of tips and you can see before and afters quickly. Really easy to watch. Thank you!
Thanks Ethe
@@JerryGhionisPhotography Where do I find this background?
ruclips.net/user/shortssZncwqbABO0?feature=share 👍👍👍
@@JerryGhionisPhotography 18 minutes felt like 10 or 12
I love how you cared to remind us so we don't have to go back, and the pacing was great as well.
Wow this tutorial is excellent. Not only did you show us the poses themselves, you went over the principles that makes all of this much easier to remember. Thanks for giving people the tools to create a bunch of different poses instead of just having them try to memorize one specific pose.
This was one of the best tutorials on this I've watched. Many of the others were not helpful at all. Thanks for the good tips!
Wow.. did not expect to learn so much from this. Will give this a go tomorrow!
I will try these poses while I wait in the crosswalk before the traffic light turns green. 🤣
Step 1 : look good
pretty much the guy looks great in all pics, just a bit less cringe in some
I love how entertaining the video itself is besides the explanations
incredible video! Very insightful
Incorrect, if the man doesn't pose like Araki's characters, throw the man away.
Nice video by the way.
FR josuke pose from part 4 to assert dominance
another fuking jojo reference
@@diu2370 That's where you look if you want posing reference
@@diu2370 not really a reference, but rather a mention since it's explicitly direct
@@velk2897 actually araki took a lot of his poses from fashion magazines and greek scultures, so the poses are actually dope
He looks incredibly awkward in the pose that you are saying looks way better
obviously not a pro model (yet at least / or acting as not being one), he exaggerates the instructions, these instructions are meant to be used as a guide, just use the tips and practice them. if you see Jerry doing some of them they are more subtle. Also @10:52
I'm a photographer, and I was looking for this comment.
through out the length of video if we see same pose multiple time. same thing as model doing pose. we will also feel awkward. but i like the idea of him exaggerating idea of light and angle of subject.
look at 3:23 its way dapper
@@Edwin-qt7pq Hell no. His feet are far too close together and he is angling his body like a lunge. Might as well allow his feet to separate for stability and for a more natural pose. He looks like he's trying to hold in a pee XD
Informative and hilarous posing video. I wish every video was like this.
Great work guys!
Absolutely masterfully done thank you so much ! I learned A-L-O-T !!
I am an Artist but yet this helps me to know what to emphasize when drawing a male pose/body, thanks for all of this!
I really like your character too, bringing in some jokes is always great!
Actual to the point real information! Great job. I’ve learned that photography of people/events is more about being a director than a photographer. The interaction between you and the subject is much more important than mastery of camera and light. Combining the the two abilities is when you can rise above the norm.
Thank you for the knowledge, Jerry.
I liked the way how that guy simply Smiled and Laughed in middles!😊❤
I non-ironically prefer the "worse" pose - even though it could use some tidying up. Everybody trying to do dynamic poses, so the static poses suddenly pop-out - gotta know your meta. Plus I like how the shadow implies some duality nature there, like some Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde setting - very Godfather-y.
The dynamic pose throws me off cuz his facial doesn't match. He's too focused on maintaining his pose rather than playing into it.
Two tips I can shell out for anyone reading this:
1. If you're having your model do a dynamic pose, iterate with the model how to enter the pose, don't ask them to hold it - the thing about dynamic poses is that they're difficult to maintain since they're, like, "transitionary" states between static poses, they're meant to play off momentum and are not meant to be naturally "held" unless your model has a good core. If you ask an amateur model to hold a dynamic pose, the first few seconds might be ok, but after that it becomes straineous.
2. If your model is plain, like in this photo, imo static poses work better. Composition is all about how every element in a photo comes together to make a whole, and unless you're intentionally using the jarring contrast to tell a story, it's better to play into your models strengths - unless the photo is meant to portray someone who's tricking i aint buying it. know the tools you are working with.
In conclusion - latter is wee bit more technical, but not necessarily always better - all depends on context.
I agree. Maybe we are not very artistic, but the "bad" pose, the first one with both in pockets looking straight at the camera was the coolest.
I see🤔... So what you're saying is that you don't only have to look the part, but also act the part as well. And you know what, I actually agree.
One thing that might help is you get their imaginations going by making a scenario that'd fit that pose, so that everything, including his facial expressions, partake as well. This might even help them relax in front of the camera because I find, for a lot of people, whenever a camera is whipped out, the awkward button automatically turns on.
Though, it all depends on what it is you have in mind. It IS art after all, as a result, there's no set rules.
I'ma be honest I straight up thought that was Ludwig, until I realized this guy wasn't 5'5.
Yes, given that Jerry is 188cm
We can see that the model is about 181cm to 183cm.
You are beyond BRILLIANT! Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings.
Wow, that was amazing to watch and soo helpful!
Jerry is the KING of Photography Tutorial.
Damn right he is! It rolls off his tongue like a university professor. Colour me Subscribed :)
Jerry, thank you for putting these together. I've seen and paid for a lot of posing tips, but your guidance seems the most organic and practical. More, please!
More to come!
This was awesome.
I love photography, but I usually hate taking photos of people (everyone wants to be the best looking one always, everywhere); and I mostly keep people and faces out of my photos.
When I have to take photos of people I usually use tape to hide any lights that make you aware that the camera is shooting or recording, and I try to make the subject laugh or move while I record while they don't know. But with these ideas and tricks I think I can do better.
thanks for watching!
Perfect - I love the easy to understand direction.
You have an incredible talent for photography and you have a huge talent for posing. You are a master Jerry. I think you are very smart, that highlights everything you do. Thanks a lot for sharing!!!!
The first pose, even before getting to the shoulders made me smile. It's so cool and classy!
Fascinating video. Thanks Jerry.
I’m totally awestruck by this tutorial, it’s so amazingly good
Thanks so much!
Wow, I never thought about how posing/form can convey so much! Thanks for doing this video!
7:28 and I just noticed photografer is missing half of his index finger. awesome tutorial, thank you
What a amazing video! You were way way better than my teachers at my old film & photo College and I paid for them.. Keep up the great content, Jerry.
Randomly came across this and it's absolute gold!! Thank you...I need this as I'm about to take professional headshots for college and graduation and I have no idea how to take pictures well! Truly thank you. 😊
What a great teacher... As an IT instructor I can see his ability to simplify and teach a mile away with his tone and demeanour. High level tutorial that I stumbled upon on my feed. Liked and Sub...excellent job.
I've been a street photographer for years. I'm lucky to find this on my feed. Thanks for the free lesson.
Loved your content, thank you for sharing
Best teacher I've found on the internet, your knowledge is amazing
Wow, thank you!
I like that sign off...focusing on being better than last week feels as if it offers a little more wiggle room than perhaps constantly striving to be better than yesterday. Like, sometimes I just can't beat yesterday but hey, if we say last week, I can do at least better than one of the days last week. Thanks for that!
he seems like such a pro and such a fun person to be around nice job jerry
These tips are crazy :0 I love it!
Best video I've watched so far with real advice on posing guys. Great video!
Awesome!
Amazing. I can’t wait for the next one ❤️
This is EXACTLY what I wanted! Thank you so much for this video. I'm now a subscriber and can't wait to see more.
Just wanted to say thank you for showing example of how model should show their expressions. Very helpful explaining!! Look forward seeing more of your next video. Josh
I saw a ton videos and this one may very well be the best one
Man this is what every man need. Good job man.
This is brilliant! The instructions you give are clear. I also love the sense of humour 😊
This is one of very few videos on youtube that I'll need to watch a few times to really drill it home. Thanks for making it.
Very instructive in a most helpful way.
thank you so much for sharing, I have taken your free masterclass earlier, so much perspective about wedding and portrait. It's helpful for me as a photographer, Keep it up!
I will have to check your channel more often. Thanks for the tips.
What a great tutorial. Thanks for sharing it with the world. Got some useful tips from you, Jerry.
Best regards
Thanks for watching!
As an oil painter trying to learn to paint men, this was such great information! Thank you for your clear info and examples :)
Check out J.C. Leyendecker for fantastic paintings of men
i don't know how I arrived here at 1 AM in the morning but was fun to watch and maybe start to learn some more. Thanks Jerry.
This video is pure gold. Thank you!
Greetings from Brazil
that's great advise for drawing as well, many thanks!
Dude mirrored him so perfectly
that even when laugh he does not make a sound.
Jerry is definitely a pro. No one can change my mind.
Thanks man you're a lifesaver
Extremely detailed video on the body shape of a person for the best poses
When I first saw this I thought the model was Ludwig
You are awesome. I laughed out loud and learnt so much ❤
Good tips and well explained
thank you :) great tips!
Me encanta como explicas todo hasta el punto de que parece fácil. Amo tus fotografías!!
Jerry, fantastic video, great fun.
Love your style.
Be lucky stay safe
Thank you so much for this video Jerry. I can't believe this is available here for free.
Glad it was helpful!
i would never thought i would pose like this, but this video has so much value, i will start posing like this, thank you very much Jerry
Glad it was helpful!
Superb video, this has so much value beyond just photography too, goes for all body related art like drawing.
This video is awesome! I feel as if I took a modeling/photographer class!
The video I have been looking for my whole life. Lol. Thank you!
thanks for watching!
There are no existing photos of me before I was 15 years old, because I was so awkward taking my photos, but with some practice and tips like this I am atleast photogenic now.
awsome!
perfect! that's the way you do it!
I love your videos, seriously..... Watching lot of tutorials but you are the best 🙏🙏 thank you so much
Thank you so much!
If you are good looking, everything you'll do looks good. Fact!
Who knew Ludwig was so good at posing?
Thank you, Jerry.
Great tutorial.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video, also as someone mentioned it's great how you got the model to be relaxed and comfortable with good humor. Slight side note mirroring each other's actions activates mirror neurons in the brain to further enhance this connection/rapport and relaxing effect. Thanks again I'll incorporate these for myself as well!
