Why do most models take photos sideways?

The reasons why most models are photographed sideways are as follows:

Taking pictures from the side can better show the temperament of the model and make them appear taller and slimmer. Taking photos from the side can make the model look more agile and natural, and bring out the model's gentle temperament. Profile portraits help show the model’s facial features and curvy figure. The sideways posture can make the model look slimmer and better show off the model's unique curves.

In order to better express the model's temperament, the model should be reminded to raise her head and chest slightly when taking pictures, which can make the model look more elegant and noble.

Photographing a stranger head-on may cause resistance. Therefore, relatively speaking, taking pictures from the side and back is much more natural and easier than taking pictures from the front. When models don’t look at the camera, their expressions and movements will be natural and relaxed. Moreover, shooting from the back is more story-telling than shooting from the front, and shooting from the side can better show off the curvaceous beauty of the character.

Most of the street photos are fashion-themed, with fashionable clothing and styles as the highlights. For example, clothing, then taking a silhouette can better show the beauty of the curves brought by the clothes, and the fashionable girl in the picture will be more enchanting. For example, the silhouette and back of tight jeans are very attractive, showing off a woman's curves and being fashionable.

For models, taking back and profile shots reduces the tension of facing the camera. For photographers, taking silhouettes and backs is easier to capture without disturbing strangers. When posing for photos, the silhouette and back are more fashionable and charming, and are also indispensable angles for a group of street portrait photos.
