This was VERY HELPFUL! I think it would be cool to have entire videos on very specific scenarios like “posing non-models sitting on different kinds of chairs” or “posing non-models on against walls”, like “5 easiest poses for non models using a prop”.
Great video, thanks Julia. I would love to see something similar for men, but based around a more industrial or trade based aesthetic. Pose a plumber, a concreter...a fireman!
I have only recently started portrait photography. I have convinced a few male friends willing to model for me but are as novices as myself. Researching there is tonnes and tonnes of female photography lessons but only found you content so relevant to me. Thank you. Keep them rolling please 😀
This was really fun to watch. Dan is really playful. I loved the setting and this video did really help with learning how to pose men who are not models. I hope to see more like this! Thank you Julia!
This video really inspires me to drag my boyfriend in front of my lense. Of course I find him so handsome, but I felt like he’s uncomfortable having his pictures taken, so I try to find failproof poses to boost not only his confidence but also mine as a photographer. Thanks for sharing these tips
I completely understand ❤️ My boyfriend has long curly hair right now that I desperately want to take photos of before he cuts it 😂 he’s inspired by Robert Plant by Zed Zeppelin so here’s to hoping I get some musician shots 😊
Thanks for this Julia. i love how you connect with your male not model. Me, as a male photographer is really awkward to shoot men and how to ask them what should they do and how should they pose on camera. I'll apply this with my awkward male friends. looking forward for more tutorials like this,
The crossed legs ones are my favorite, the one with the head on the ground/laying down is really cool too. need like special cards to remember these by.
I loved the laying down shot with his hand behind his head and the other hand out towards the camera. I have a senior male session coming up and I'd like to give that one a try!
This was such a beautiful and heartwarming video! From the amazing autumn leaves scenery to the wonderful (and funny) model! 😆Certainly looking forward to more photoshoot tips for male subjects!
Thanks Julia for making this video! It's straigh up to the point and no fuss! These tips are invaluable and one thing that I did learn was to be generous with clicking the shutter! How you direct the model is also insightful and will hopefully be able to apply this learning in my work 🙌🏽
Really helpful video. Yes, you can definitely do more videos like this because your videos really help to become a better photographer. Dan, thank you for you too!
Great as always! Another video idea is how to pose men who are ecto vs meso vs endomorph (didn't want to use the other terms). I would say Dan is on the easier side to pose since he's ectomorph. Which is what you would typically see in a model. When you showed the poses of him leaning against the tree with one arm out or sitting on the ground with his arms crossing the triangles are more pronounced whereas an individual with an average build or mesomorph body type, these angles would come across as uncomfortable and sometimes unflattering. Nonetheless I think you inspired many to get out and shoot and maybe others will come up with poses that will work for those other individuals.
Thank you and I'd love to get more people involved in videos like this, it's a little hard to find non-models who are willing to pose for a channel with a large audience, but I will find someone :) Last time I photographed Karol who is very muscular, so I wanted to change it up for this time. I will change it up again for next time 💛
Thank you so much I’m so glad I found this! Excellent video! And I’m so impressed that you can get sharp images with one hand shooting! Maybe I need that camera! Love the hand towards the camera!
Hey Julia, that is really great! I am having the problem that I am asked to do portraits of families and I would love to see a video about how to do portraits of a group of people. :-)
I'd love to see another male photo shoot! I find it so difficult for portraits because they don't usually have long hair to play with or many accessories. I've been binge watching your channel since last week & have learned so much!!!
Nooooooo 😂 I loved every pose but that one. What does it even mean? Everyone is doing this lately and why? Blurred distracting object taking away from the subject of the shot. Some shots of this type look like someone is going down with the Titanic and reaching out as if to say, "please help me", before they get sucked under the icy water and drown.
Great video with some nice ideas. I love the way you moved around and turned one pose into many shots. Dan was fun and injected some humour into the video too.
@@juliatrotti tysm! Love your work and the variety you put into your videos! Would you also think about trying out the Sony a9 for a video? It's the camera I'm looking at getting next for both motorsport and portrait photography!
Yes please, want to see more:) I also have one problem: tall men. You touched upon this challenge in this video, but I'd like to know more tricks. I have a 100% crop and a 35mm prime lens, and it does get tricky with tall men photo shoots
Thanks so much! I have a few self portrait videos up on my channel already in case you haven't seen those, but I do have some new ideas that I want to film soon too.
Just in time! I have a branding session swap coming up with a (male) colleague, and I don't really know how to pose solo men. I've done it only once so far (not including classic groom poses). Thanks!
Love all the poses! I just want to know one thing!!! How do you get such sharp photos shooting live view with the camera moving around so much??? It seems you shoot this way alot! Do you do any sharpening in post production and do you always shoot in Continuous Mode? I just breathe and my photos are blurry-ugh!!!
I'll be sure to pose any models on the ground where there's lots of dangerous looking, spikey tree seeds which, being Australia, are probably poisonous 😂😂 I jest of course! Going to remember the "waiting for the bus with a migraine" pose 😆
Why are you using such a wide lens? Would not a 50mm or 85mm make more sense? Both from point of view of adding distance between you and subject and also to make the proportions more natural.
Just curious about where this location is, because I've been trying to find new locations to shoot at in sydney but haven't had a chance due to covid. Thanks.
I thought it is just a camera and a lens, but when I click the Show More I realized that's involved so many accessories and lens also lighting things, damn I am stupid.
Yessss more Male posing videos please! 🙏
We will work on it! 😄
Agreed!
@@juliatrotti Wouldn't mind more like these! ❤ 'Waiting for the Taxi' next one maybe? 😄
"Waiting for the bus with a migraine"... totally using that then next time I ask my husband model a sweater I knit for him! 😂💖
Haha the migraine pose is so versatile - sitting with a migraine, leaning with a migraine, standing with a migraine, the list just keeps going 😂
This was VERY HELPFUL! I think it would be cool to have entire videos on very specific scenarios like “posing non-models sitting on different kinds of chairs” or “posing non-models on against walls”, like “5 easiest poses for non models using a prop”.
Thanks so much! And yess I will definitely work on more posing videos soon 💛
This makes me love Dan even more! His humor is everything! Also obsessed with you as a couple
Great video, thanks Julia. I would love to see something similar for men, but based around a more industrial or trade based aesthetic. Pose a plumber, a concreter...a fireman!

Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it 😊
The one with glasses on, hand looking another way, and the sunglasses painting another scene was awesome. That is a trick I will use.
I love these videos! I’m making an effort to improve my portrait photography, and learning to pose people has been my greatest challenge.
This video really inspires me to drag my boyfriend in front of my lense. Of course I find him so handsome, but I felt like he’s uncomfortable having his pictures taken, so I try to find failproof poses to boost not only his confidence but also mine as a photographer. Thanks for sharing these tips

My son is growing up and not as eager to be in front of my camera anymore, so I'm excited to try these out with him!
The crossed legs ones are my favorite, the one with the head on the ground/laying down is really cool too. need like special cards to remember these by.
Thank you! I personally love the crossed legs one too, the one I used for the thumbnail 😊
Dan is so dreammmyyy!! I love how he hesitates to take his sunglasses off 🤣🤣
Haha yeah he usually never takes of his sunnies for photos, had to convince him 😅
I loved the laying down shot with his hand behind his head and the other hand out towards the camera. I have a senior male session coming up and I'd like to give that one a try!
This was such a beautiful and heartwarming video! From the amazing autumn leaves scenery to the wonderful (and funny) model! 😆Certainly looking forward to more photoshoot tips for male subjects!
Ahh thank you so much! It was really fun to film, plus I have some nice photos of Dan now too haha I definitely want to make another one :)
@@juliatrotti ooooh yassss please do!
Definitely trying these out with my client this Saturday on my photoshoot! Thanks Julia
Thank you and enjoy your shoot :D

Julia, you are a true inspiration! Love your videos! Keep up the great work!
This is very useful for an awkward male photographer😄
Really helpful video. Yes, you can definitely do more videos like this because your videos really help to become a better photographer. Dan, thank you for you too!
Thanks for the tips. I love that you're rapid shooting. That's what I do. One time I took 1500 shots in a 4 hour shoot with a guy.
Great as always!

Man those boots look awesome Dan! Mine are still too new and shiny looking. I cant wait to break mine in! Great captures Julia and fantastic location.
Docs are sooo good once they're broken in, the first couple of weeks with them are painful though lol. And thank you so much!
You two are made for eachother! Fab Dan pose video, some more please, as well as male group poses too x
Thank you so much I’m so glad I found this! Excellent video! And I’m so impressed that you can get sharp images with one hand shooting! Maybe I need that camera! Love the hand towards the camera!
Thank you Julia awesome tips, that migraine and the lying on the ground with hand stretched out fav

Solid tips! Just a simple pacing is so effective and the waiting for the bus is gold. haha Thanks!
From all your videos I have seen, this is the most fun to watch. I loved it. Such great tips for me that I'm starting as a new photographer!
Great video! That shot with his hand stretched out was 🔥🔥🔥. Your video made me want to go out and shoot some portraits now lol.
Nooooooo 😂 I loved every pose but that one. What does it even mean? Everyone is doing this lately and why? Blurred distracting object taking away from the subject of the shot.

Hahah there's something in there for everyone, photography, posing, etc is subjective ;)
Thanks! I always love to watch and learn from your videos, fun and very chill :D
Thank you, thank you! All males I shoot won't be models so this was very helpful and great tips.
SUPER COOL. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING JULIA.... BLESS YOU
Finally my love , man model photography
Looking good, Dan! Nice work team. 😊
I love the place.... Amazing colours..... But weird to watch autumm in May 😁
Loving your videos! I’m just starting out and you’re helping me so much with camera settings and in general! Thank you
Definitely more that was great and you guys always make me chuckle! I love it! ❤️
Great video with some nice ideas. I love the way you moved around and turned one pose into many shots. Dan was fun and injected some humour into the video too.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Yay! Just the video I was looking for ✨
Thank you Julia. Really enjoyed this and learned a lot
Thanks for the help, now I can change my profile pic more often
Definitely more shoots with males and at different locations please! Would help me out a lot!
I will work on making some more!

Non photoshoot guide is great
Dan is an awesome model! More Dan Sessions!!
Hey, Julia. Great stuff, love your content. I noticed interesting combinations of ISO and shutter speed... are you using aperture priority here?
Very good! Thank you so much
Great video, I'd love to see you do a male streetwear themed shoot in an urban environment
I love this and also the previous one
Thank you!
He kind of looks like the guru school photographer that only shows up for one episode
But in the best way possible!
I tried to google but I have no idea what this is hahah I think I'm getting old 😅
@@juliatrotti haha I was kind of just speaking generally in that in a lot of shows the school photographer is always like hip or something 😂
@@kyrier9827 ohhh I get it now, thanks for bearing with me 😂😅😅
AMAZING photos though and I would've NEVER had guessed he wasn't a model!
Yes more videos like this! 👍🏽
Great video. I'd add: give the man something to play with: a leaf, branch, anything that might add some dynamics to the image.
Awesome, you've made it simple. Nice background too.
Thank you!
Amazing video. Just found out that Ibrahimovic was a model lol.
awesome video!
really cool guys! 🤍
dan looks like default wood elf from skyrim
This is great! Need more of these to pose my boyfriend!
Thank you :)
Such a great video! I will definitely try this out with my fiancé, he’s so stiff in front of the camera 😃
This was fun!
You make it so easy. 😁👏👏
Great video, You help me get more ideas!
Thank you!
THANK YOU
Definitely waiting bus with a migraine win 😂👍👍👍 more Dan please💖
Great tutorial! Thanks
Could you do self portrait techniques and poses tutorial? It would be great
Thanks so much! I have a few self portrait videos up on my channel already in case you haven't seen those, but I do have some new ideas that I want to film soon too.
Another interesting video mam. Have a great day. Stay safe. Love from India.
Thank you! I hope you're staying safe
We would like to see more of these
I this lense ideal for a family photoshoot as well? Can you recommend or do a video for a family photo session?
Yes I do family shoots mostly on a 35 because it’s great for group shots and moving subjects. I also bring an 85 for some solo shots too
Once I am outta dis quarantine M gotta get some Beachy-Snaps... N I hv no idea how to pose.. Lol.. Your videos r Quite helpful.. Pls more Male models❤
Great and inspiring video, thanks a lot Julia! I guess, you could try to shoot Dan portraits on wide angle, maybe even on a fisheye lens, why not? 😏
Thanks so much! I took some portraits of Dan on the 14mm in that video I posted a couple of weeks ago now actually :D
Just in time! I have a branding session swap coming up with a (male) colleague, and I don't really know how to pose solo men. I've done it only once so far (not including classic groom poses). Thanks!
Dan is a pretty cool dude, kinda wish I still had my manbun though 😅🤷🏽♂️
Hi
Which is best camera to buy for wedding photography &videography
Sony a7iii or Sony a7riii ??
Thank you 😊 in advance
Feels a bit weird saying, but he's got some beautiful eyes. Look great on photos
I agree!
Love all the poses! I just want to know one thing!!! How do you get such sharp photos shooting live view with the camera moving around so much??? It seems you shoot this way alot! Do you do any sharpening in post production and do you always shoot in Continuous Mode? I just breathe and my photos are blurry-ugh!!!
can you make a video about the white balance on a canon camera 🙂🙏🏻
Very Inspirative Julia!
I hope I can use this trick, then I’ll upload it on My Channel soon! ;)
Waiting for the bus with a migraine 😂😂😂
An old classic 😂
Julia! Come to Canberra!
Last time I went was for a wedding during the Spring and all the cherry blossoms were blooming - sooo pretty! I want to go back to do a shoot there 😄
So finally this video come after almost one year i req to you plz make more video on this thankyou julia sis
love from india
Okaaaay Den I see you posting... You single??
This is very useful, i am handsome but i don't know how to pose. 🤣
Hey can you do a part 3 with plus size men? Like a dad bod shoot?
I'll be sure to pose any models on the ground where there's lots of dangerous looking, spikey tree seeds which, being Australia, are probably poisonous 😂😂
I jest of course! Going to remember the "waiting for the bus with a migraine" pose 😆
I ended up leaning down on one of those spiky things and had a bruise on my leg for a week 🤦♀️
@@juliatrotti Damn! Those are some nasty things! You’re certainly not selling Australia to me as a tourist destination 😅
We have spiky tree balls here in the states too! Definitely not fun to step on!
Why are you using such a wide lens? Would not a 50mm or 85mm make more sense? Both from point of view of adding distance between you and subject and also to make the proportions more natural.
Are you using back button focus? I can’t tell in the vid. Lol. Great vid!! 🔥
I've never been able to get used to BBF for some reason, always just used the shutter!
What are the camera settings?
Osm😘😘😘✌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏
Focallenght would've been a better info than ISO 🙈
Just curious about where this location is, because I've been trying to find new locations to shoot at in sydney but haven't had a chance due to covid. Thanks.
I like this a lot cause my bf is the only one I can practice with atm, and he's just as awkward hahahah
I thought it is just a camera and a lens, but when I click the Show More I realized that's involved so many accessories and lens also lighting things, damn I am stupid.
Good video for showing how NOT to hold a camera and how an inappropriate choice of lens focal length causes undesirable distortion of the body.
"Your elbows on your shoulders" @ 5:28 I'd like to see anyone do that lol
Love to get click by you love from india
You are soo beautiful and cute 🥺💖💘
