Seated by the Ropes

Sitting low against a dark night sky
Wooden pier with yellow ropes
Calm dark warm

Kristel sits cross-legged on the wooden deck facing the camera with a wide smile. Warm light catches her face from the side while thick yellow ropes frame the black background.

Pro tip

Use contrasting background elements like bright ropes to frame a seated subject in low light.

Standing tall near holiday decor
White wooden grid structure
Bright crisp simple

Kristel stands upright inside a white grid structure next to a decorated tree and red flowers. Warm overhead light highlights her striped crop top and dark pants against the white beams.

Pro tip

Position your subject within architectural lines to create natural structure in the frame.

Kristel stretches one leg out while leaning on her hand on the wooden floor. The vertical light post on the left casts a golden glow across her relaxed pose.

Pro tip

Letting the model recline creates a more casual and approachable editorial feel.

Hand on Hip

Standing straight with a phone in hand
Covered patio with red flowers
Direct clear casual

Kristel stands facing forward with one hand on her hip and a pink phone in the other. Red poinsettias sit at her feet below the white wooden panels.

Pro tip

A simple hand on the hip adds clean symmetry to a standing portrait.

That's the inside look. Save this one for your next shoot.
