A lot of people are insecure about how they look when they get photographed. What they often don’t realize is that knowing how to position yourself in one is half of the battle. Knowing your angles is vital, and you are also at the mercy of things like lighting, camera quality, and the like. Also, striking a pose can make all the difference. Many of us can’t help but go straight to the peace sign or thumbs up when we get a phone or camera in our face, but sometimes it pays to go the extra mile. The examples that can be found in this list do exactly that. While not all of these are advisable to try yourself, they can certainly offer us some modeling inspiration. The composition of these pictures is something to be envied, or at least enjoyed from the distance of a screen. It’s what they were taken for.
