How to Get Rid of a Double Chin. Portrait Photography Posing Tips

28 103



In this video I want to show you how to get rid of double chin and share some posing techniques and posing tips for how to pose people with a double chin. A double chin is a nightmare to photograph because it often makes people look heavier than they really are – even skinny people can get double chins. They are also tough because pretty much everybody that has one, hates it and is VERY aware of it when they have their picture taken. The heavier the person is – the more impossible it can become to eliminate or hide the extra chin.

These portrait photography posing techniques will help you make your subject look their best and teach you how to look good in photos. So regardless if you are posing women or posing men, this video can help.

    Excellent tips dealing with the awkwardness of posing and your intro just made me laugh so hard Joe. I have the opposite problem. How do you deal with a chin that naturally juts out. What's the best post for them please?

    "Your best shot is your next shot"

    You got another sub on this one. Well, not really, I had already subscribed at that point.

    Thanks for the video. It'll be of great great help on my next session come this Saturday.

    Thanks!

    Joe, I love your way of teaching where you not only offer suggestions, but you filmed yourself actually doing it (whether or not the model was real) it's very helpful to see how other photographers work. Thanks, as always.

    This is perfect! I love the way you explain WHY you are doing each thing, such as WHY the turtle stretch works, and WHY you take the camera away from your face to engage with your subject. And I love that you demonstrate each step, instead of just telling us what we should do. You just gained a new subscriber!
