I was thinking a lot about the complexity of posing...If that makes any sense. Shooting young girls has become funny in many ways, it seems like every time one of them gets in front of the camera their body automatically holds a pose you know they've practices several hundred times before. I can't help but smile to myself because i know its something everyone does. This Miranda July video popped into my head and now every I see someone in front of a camera I picture them poppin a pose! It also reminds me of the way old school commercial photographers used to do their portraits...model's memorize a pose in relation to a number, a number is picked and instant photo! Haha I think i need to make a book of go-to poses and carry it around with me when i shoot. "hey you can you handle pose # 1,3 and 7?.. great thank you"
