Photographing the sweetness of both sexes: 21 photographic poses for couples with detailed explanations with pictures and texts

Your generous attention is the motivation for me to keep updating.

1: Stand face to face in a relaxed starting position (but facing the camera), with your arms supporting his upper body. Take close-ups and vertical photos.

2: Require couples or lovers to stand very close to capture intimate close-up portraits. Don’t be afraid to zoom in and crop for real!

3: In a very relaxed and affectionate gesture, he holds her from behind. The couple or lovers may look directly at the camera or at each other. They might even kiss for a more sensual scene!

4: Grab her back and shoulders in a fun and loving gesture. Pay attention to hand position: it should be simple and natural.

5: Just a change, she hugged him from behind. Remember, the couple or lovers do not necessarily have to look into the camera. For better results, make each other interact through conversation, happy appearance, laughter, etc.

6: Create a very romantic atmosphere. Best used outdoors with some open space in the background. Shot from behind. Remember, you have to be far enough away from the couple to catch each person's closest eye.

7: Find some height and photograph the subject from above. Photographing a common pose from an unusual angle is always creative and can often give you surprisingly good results.

8: Another romantic gesture. Best used outdoors with some open space in the background. For example: it also works well as a silhouette against a bright background just before sunset.

9: Easy to achieve full-body shooting poses, creating a calm and friendly mood.

10: An interesting pose, don’t think it’s just for young people. If an older couple feels good about it, this position will definitely be great for them too. Try different framings, full body shots, half body height shots and close up shots.

11: A great way to express feelings when meeting each other. It works well in places where many people gather, such as famous gathering places in cities, train or subway stations, etc.

12: Fun poses. The key is the position of her legs, each leg should be bent at a different angle. While he's still lifting her, take a close-up portrait.

13: Take a photo of a couple or lovers walking hand in hand. Only shoot in burst mode! However, most of your movements will be out of focus due to leg movement. So the second part of your job is to choose the photo with the best leg movement and positioning.

14: Another action change with a walking couple or couple. The couple came very close and held each other tightly. Again, take several photos and choose those with the most elegant leg poses.

15: Never forget that you usually only have many opportunities when shooting from behind.

16: A couple or lovers are lying on the ground together. Keep their upper body slightly raised by using their arms for support. He might hug her gently. Shot from a low angle.

17: Another change, a couple or lovers are lying on the ground. This time the gap is small.

18. A great example of how two people can be placed nicely asymmetrically.

19. Photograph a couple lying on the sofa or bed in an informal and fun way.

20: Lovingly pose for a couple or lovers to sit comfortably on their favorite sofa.

21: Sometimes photographing a couple can mean maternity photography. Some of the poses in this couples series also work well in this situation. Simply adjust the pose accordingly to show the couple's feelings and interactions with their unborn new life.

You cannot and should not repeat a pose exactly, but creatively adapt the pose to your shooting environment and scene.
