Carefree Portrait Posing in Just a Few Steps! | Take and Make Great Photography with Gavin Hoey

Having your subject sit on a chair, lean against a wall or stand in the shade may make your life as a photographer a little easier but what you gain in control you lose in spontaneity. So if you’re after portraits that have an informal feel, photographed in a way that allows your model to relax and the poses to flow, this photo tutorial is for you. Photographer Gavin Hoey’s recipe for carefree posing is simply to take a walk! By keeping his model moving the poses stay fun and fluid. The tricky part is maintaining focus on a moving model. Gavin starts by demonstrating how he uses continuous autofocus to keep track of his model. He then moves on to the more advanced focusing option of face detection and eye detection autofocus. Finally, Gavin ups the complexity a little more by adding flash to the mix using a Flashpoint Xplor 400 and a small softbox.
