Posing Deconstructed- TRIANGLES

Before you get concerned, the title does not mean you’ll have to somehow contort your body into a triangle-like shape and hold it while I get a good picture. That happens later in the session… Just kidding!

For my purposes, to “triangle pose” means to pose in a stable yet unique way that is pleasing to the eye.

Still feeling confused? I have some examples.

Lily (pictured to the right) is not only perfect in every way, (very funny) but this pose is a great illustration of what I am talking about. Her left arm is extended away from her body, while her right arm is elevated and placed on her knee. One of her legs is lifted, creating yet ANOTHER triangle! She’s on fire!

A pose like this brings levels and variety that make you look relaxed, grounded and natural.

Meghan and Kate, Fig 2 + 3 respectively, are variations on the same theme and they both look great. Everyone’s body is different, but for the most part everyone can create at least one of these three options. At your session we will try them out and see what works best for you.
