Simple poses for girls

First things first - the simple poses for girls. We need to start from the basics. So if you’re uncomfortable with posing, or just want a simple shoot - check this out! Here are our tips to strike the best simple poses.

1. Start simple babe

A good photoshoot doesn’t have to be too complicated to come out well. If you don’t care about eccentric outfits, makeup, and settings don’t worry! You can simply pose, staring straight at the camera. Add up some extra movement by playing with your shirt or coat. This will allow your hands to look busy and your shot to be less static.

2. Dream little dreamer

Are you the dreamer kind of girl? Then, for this simple pose shot, no need to overthink anything too much. Lean on something and look on the side. You can slightly raise your chin up in a dreamer-kind of way! Go ahead and see your sweet reflective shot come to life.

3. The side close-up

A close-up is always a good idea! However, I can understand that close-ups taken while you stare at the camera can feel intimidating. Those are probably not the most simple shots to take. That’s why this simple pose idea is a great alternative! Try having a close-up shot taken of you but on the side. Pick your best side and take the pressure away by looking elsewhere. Have your photographer do the rest!

4. Jolly Mrs. sunshine

Strike that smile, would you? Some girls love to express their jolly personality and show their joy! So if this is the case, go on and laugh! Simply be you, in front of the camera. You will see how authentically, simply, beautiful this shot will be.

5. The barbie squad

Now, what if you happen to be with your friend's group? Then go all the way barbie, my dears! You don’t need to overcomplicate your shooting too much. Simply wear your favorite suits or dresses. Then sit or lean in a Barbie-like pose. Add sunglasses or hats for an extra fancy detail!

Traditional poses for girls

Maybe you’re in between simplicity and classic photos. Then, you might want to have a read at this one! Here are the traditional poses for girls who love conventional shots.

Are you one of them? Then, read on!

6. The Renaissance statue-like pose

Wouldn’t you want to look like a Reinassance statue? One that whispers “Look at me, I’m gorgeous”. Then go on and wear a classic, clear-color palette outfit. Then sit in a clear-looking setting, while leaning on a couch or table. Proceed with posing while holding your chin with your arm. It’s a classy and traditional win-win!

7. One with the furry babe

Go on and strike that “Egyptian Queen” shot. Because I know you’d want a good old traditional shot with your fur or a meow. So if you're an animal mama, include your baby in the shot. Recreate a traditional setting while you sit on a good-looking armchair, together with your furry one.

8. It’s the eyes chico, they never lie

Yes, eyes never lie. They’re the most sensual woman’s accessories. So for a traditional and special-looking result, check this out. Grab a feminine accessory like a fan or a scarf. Then pose alone, or with friends, facing the camera. Cover your face with your chosen accessory and leave only the eyes exposed. Make sure you do your best to be as expressive as possible for this shot.

9. Swim little mermaid

Who said, mermaid? Come on, everyone loves mermaids! You don’t necessarily need to be posing at the beach to resemble one. For a mermaid-looking traditional shot simply sit with your legs resembling a mermaid’s tale. Then, face the camera or slightly sideways!

10. Queen united!

Beyonce who? We cannot say traditional without talking about Queens! Yes, if you’re a girl looking for photoshoot poses, you need to feel like a queen. Even better, if you get to feel so with your queen sisters and friends. Get together and pose with a crown and glitters while wearing a black, simple outfit.
