Do you panic right before a session? Screen shot images from the internet to your phone to help refresh your mind on what poses to do? With one of two things happening…

You chicken out and don’t pull out your phone because you don’t want to look like you don’t know what you’re doing, and you end up using the same poses more than you intended feeling like you came off as unprepared and new at being a professional.
You pull out your phone, start scanning the pinterest images you saved and have your clients replicate the pose, feeling a little embarrassed, unprepared and unprofessional since you needed a reference.
Let me tell you a little about me and my journey! I have been a {self taught} photographer since 2011. I have experienced many of the same things even years after shooting professionally. It sucked! I knew what I had envisioned for my sessions, and how I wanted my clients to look and act but when the session rolled around and I had them right in front of me, I choked. So I resorted back to what was most comfortable to me. The typical poses. And even then, I didn’t feel I was directing them in a clear enough way that they were understanding and able to follow. I had to come up with something that made my sessions flow easier! Something that would help my clients as well as myself!

Before my Organic Posing Guide, my clients would show up to the session. I would try and get the look I was aiming for by telling them to interact with each other, to just be themselves. If they still were not understanding or were uncomfortable to just be themselves, I would either pull out my phone for some pinterest assistance (and feel unprofessional), or wing it and do repeat poses (and feel just as uncomfortable). Often times I would have to tell them to ‘act like they love each other’ or ‘fake laugh’ and hope I’d get THE SHOT I was after with some emotion. Awkward! For me, and for them. I was so sick of fake structured poses, cheesy smiles where the girl was telling her man to ‘give your real smile’ only creating more awkward moments. I didn’t want couples who were emotionless and literally looked like they hated each other. I wanted ORGANIC, fun, happy, flirtatious interaction! I just wasn’t able to pull it off. Eventually I started blaming myself. My lack of being assertive. My lack of being able to crack a joke on the spot. My lack of memory. You name it, I thought it and blamed it on me! Truth is, being on the spot is uncomfortable for most people! And I couldn’t just expect them to know what I wanted them to do by tossing out a few commands. They needed direction. They needed someone to prompt the conversation and break the ice.

What if you had the option to have an invisible (to them) assistant right along with you during each of your sessions? Something to help direct you and keep your mind fresh with fun ideas so YOU can direct your clients and get real genuine looking images! Something inside of your camera that your clients would know nothing about! They would have no idea that you weren’t just reviewing images from their session, but actually following a posing/pose guide to help you execute each organic pose along with conversation starters that will produce the right reaction for the specific pose.

I created the ORGANIC Posing Guide for photographers like myself. Who would love some assistance, without it looking like there is any assistance. I have created 20 reference cards for couples sessions that will help ASSIST you simply by snapping a picture of each digital card before your session! (One thing I LOVE about these cards is that I get several different shots just from one reference card!) While you’re on site and your mind is drawing a blank, you will be able to scroll back through your camera and read each card with step by step instructions on how to naturally pose them, as well as what to say/do to get them to show emotion. Leaving you (and your clients) with a STRESS FREE session and most importantly,  b e a u t i f u l   images! Priceless!

These cards alone will change how your clients view future photography sessions. Aside from having a blast with their partner and creating memories, they get a stress free session, I get many compliments from my clients about how wonderful it was to be DIRECTED, And not have to question what to do with their hands, or ask where they should be looking.

If you are worried about spending the money... Let me tell you what I have learned over the years. There is a HUGE difference between spending money, and making an investment. Spending money to buy something like groceries. Sure, you'll have groceries, but once you cook your food and eat it, you will have nothing to show for the money you spent. An INVESTMENT is something you purchase that has the potential to create more cash flow. With this guide, your prospective clients, past clients, social media followers will see the difference in your images. They will see how you went from shooting stiff and rigid to ORGANIC and FUN! They will want to book with YOU!
