These are things that really get my attention as I purview photosets, blog photos, Instagram photos and blog posts:
[EDIT: added another two things that gets my attention.]
GIRLS WITH GUITARS
As a guitarist, I always notice when there is a guitar in the photo, even if it's just sitting on a stand in the corner and not a set prop. I will actually zoom the photo to see what kind it is if it's not obvious. And if I can't tell, I will ask. If I do, it's because I'm really interested in the guitar and whether or not you play.
In fact, I just learned today that @milloux plays. She's insanely gorgeous, an extremely talented photographer and, as I learned, a guitarist. Just one more reason to love @milloux.
UNNATURAL HAIR COLORS
I am a sucker for unnatural hair colors. Don't get me wrong, I love natural hair colors (@zelena has beautiful black (or brown depending upon the day)) hair. And loads of other girls have gorgeous locks of raven, brown, ginger and blonde, but there's just something about blue, green, pink, purple, rainbow and other colors. Maybe it's because my wife had blonde hair with colored tips (she changed the color occasionally) when I first met her. Maybe it's because I'd love to have colored hair but haven't been able to pull the trigger... I'm not sure if it's acceptable where I work. I half joked about it with our GM a few weeks ago and he said go for it. So maybe I should... probably blue, but now I'm thinking silver with blue tips since my wife thinks I should go silver.
GIRLS IN GLASSES
I just think girls in glasses are so sexy. My wife wears glasses occasionally and she looks great in them.
DREADLOCKS & SMALL, TIGHT BRAIDS
I love dreadlocks on guys or girls, but especially girls. @tchip and @sid have lovely dreads. So do lots of other girls (those were just the two that came to mind immediately). And those small, tight braids! @midnightsun had stunning pink ones until she changed her hairstyle a few weeks ago.
GIRLS IN HATS
Pretty much any hat, but especially baseball caps and cowboy hats.
FAVORITE POSES
The Lioness
Well, that's what I call it. Girl is on her hands or elbows and knees, facing slightly toward the camera or perpendicular to the camera with one knee closer to her head than the other... Like she's crawling.
Or facing slightly away (about a 45 degree angle) from the camera so that you get a hint of butthole and pussy. She has her head turned looking onto the camera.
This pose also works on a large table or counter top.
Leaning Back
Sitting on the floor leaning back slightly on her arms legs bent 30-90 degrees, though both legs do not have to be bent the same amount. Her body is perpendicular to the camera. Her face may or may not be facing the camera.
Kneeling
Two different, but similar poses...
Girl is on her knees, butt against her calves/feet. Tops of the feet flush on the ground. Facing 90 degrees or slightly away from the camera so that all you see is side boob. Girl is looking at the camera.
Same position, but this time the girl is mostly facing away from the camera so that her butt is toward the camera. She is looking back at the camera. Hint of side boob too.
Squat
Rear facing and front facing...
For rear facing, camera angle can be changed if the girl does not want to show her butthole.
For forward facing, most girls who don't want to show vagina simply reach down in front with one or both hands, covering their pussy. What's sexier is when the girl reaches from behind to put her hand in front of her vagina.
Laying on Side
Girl is laying on her side, head propped up on her hand which is bent at about a 60 degree angle. Top leg is bent with her foot resting on her calf, knee or lower thigh.
Reverse Chair
Girl is sitting in a chair backwards, leaning on the seat back, butt sticking out off the seat. Legs are bent at the knee approximately 60 degrees with her feet sticking out toward her butt.
Fully Extended
Not really a good name. Hope I can explain it well.
Girl is lying on the floor leg furthest from the camera fully extended with the top of her foot on the floor. The other leg is tucked up under her torso as far as she can get it. Top of the foot is also flush on the floor. She is resting on her elbows with her forearms and hands extended in front of her. Her torso is slightly turned toward the camera. She is looking at the camera.
Stability Ball
Sitting on a large stability ball facing the camera, legs out to each side as wide as possible. Girl is using her toes for balance. A piece of sheer material is draped over her thighs obscuring her vagina.
Arched Back
This one doesn't look easy, but I find it very sexy. Girl is lying on the floor perpendicular to the camera with the arm closest to the camera extended above her head. The other arm can be at her side or above her head. Her knees are bent 30-90+ degrees. Both legs do not have to be bent in the same angle. Girl's back is arched, with only her head, butt and feet touching the floor.
No Show
This can encompass many poses, but these are my favorite two. As the name implies, boobs, vagina and butthole are not visible even though the girl is not nude.
Pose 1: girl is sitting on the floor, counter or large table perpendicular to the camera. Her knees are bent at more or less 90 degrees and feet flat on the floor (or arched but touching the floor). She is leaning forward, pressing her breasts to her lower thighs, arms wrapped around her knees. All that is showing is a little side boob, but no nipples.
Pose 2: girl is facing away from the camera. Photographer is directly behind the girl so that her boobs cannot be seen. Camera height is such that her butthole is not visible. (if the girl has very large boobs that naturally fall to the sides of the body, the girl can raise her arms os that a bit of her boobs are visible from behind.
*******
Those are a few of my favorite poses.
If I was a photographer hopeful, these are a few of the poses I would suggest to my models. If they fit in wth their vision of their set, GREAT! I'm curious what the ladies think of these poses. Please comment below! Also, should I add photos to the descriptions? Some photos will be from other sites. Is that ok?
That's all the things that really get my attention as I look at photos here and on other sites. I'm sure there are a couple more, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.
Stay Tuned...
