posing workshop

real laughs. real connection. real love.

Those words….That is what we all want to capture, right? Let’s talk about HOW you can get that.

But first, let me tell you about me. Posing is something I have SO much fun with and it’s what I’m asked about most. I started doing photography 12 years ago. YEAH, 12. WOW, that’s a big chunk of time. When I first started, I was scared of posing. So scared to the point where I’d have my sister come help me or I’d show up with screenshots on my camera of different poses I could scroll back and look at. I’m happy to share that 13 years later, I don’t do that. Haha!

Best thing I’ve learned over the course of these 13 years?

THERE ARE NO RULES!!!!!!!

Remember that! You can take any basic pose and get 40+ shots out of it just by adding the slightest movements. Forget the standard look at me and smile shots (well, maybe not completely. Grandma loves those) and focus on your clients having FUN. Honestly, forget the good photos!!! How about good memories??!?!

If you’re making good memories, I can promise you you’re capturing incredible photos.

If you want to capture their real love, allow them to show it to you.

Stop focusing on the pose, start focusing on the relationship.

I promise it’ll be magic.

I want you to leave this course feeling confident and comfortable in doing ANY pose with your clients. Confidence is key. Come along with me on four different shoots where I show you how I get the moments that make you feel, the moments that put a smile on your face as you edit the images, and the moments that your clients will forever cherish.

SOME KEY TECHNIQUES WE FOCUS ON:

  • Different poses I do from start to finish and how the edited version turns out.

  • How to take ANY basic pose and get more variety out of it than you knew possible.

  • I will not only show you how the couples move, but also how I move and interact with them.

  • Complimenting the clients! I’ll show you how I do that naturally so it feels genuine.

  • All kinds of different poses that you can use for your own sessions.

soooo what’s covered in the course?

why invest in yourself?

Ummmm duh! Take your business to the next level? Be more successful? Be more confident? Make your own schedule? Travel the world? I can keep going….

I want YOU to be able to have the experiences that I have. Thirteen years ago I wouldn’t have known a life like this existed. The people I’ve met, the places I’ve been able to go (I’m not crying as I’m writing this…) being able to run your own business and schedule. It’s TRULY a dream come true and I want that for you.

So here I am handing it to you on a silver platter ◡̈ 

I COULD NOT BE MORE EXCITED!!!!

    HOLY CRAP!!! This posing guide is the best investment I have ever made for our business! It has been sooo helpful and so fun to watch! I haven’t even watched all of it yet but I have already learned so much! I haven’t felt like guides from other photographers have been near as beneficial, because it is one thing to read about poses and get somewhat of an explanation of what they do, but it is nowhere near the same thing as physically watching you do it and explaining in person as you’re doing it! Also, to be able to watch their reactions, how you install confidence in them, and to watch how you create variety in your shots is something I couldn’t get anywhere else! I’m just amazed at how you did this for us and so excited for what I am going to be able to apply from it!! So so grateful you are sharing your talent with us!! Also so grateful you included a family session in this because I feel like that is what I struggle with posing the most, so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES!!!

    Kierstin’s course was a complete dream of a educational course to take. Posing is something I struggle with, but Kierstin’s course has already made me feel more confident going into my next session. Not only do you see how she interacts and poses her clients, you can use the same prompts on your next session! Seeing how in depth she uses movement to create these magical photographs helps you have an idea of how to get those moments. This course has made me feel so much more excited for what I can truly create within my sessions. Not only Is this course amazing.. Kierstin is!! She is absolutely a ray of sunshine and so sweet, she makes this course over the top amazing! Seeing her direct the prompts and then showing the after result is beyond helpful for knowing what you can create in your session, even with using different angles! I highly recommend this amazing course, its truly amazing.

    I didn’t think I could possibly love Kierstin’s work more than I already did, but I was so wrong! This posing course is pure gold, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to gain confidence and grow their business. The way she explains the poses, and how she executes them, is easy to understand and really intriguing to watch. After watching the course once, I already feel like I will head into future shoots with much less anxiety around posing. The way that she creates movement and variety makes posing seem much less overwhelming, and like something that can actually be fun. I feel like this has given me the tools and knowledge to create my own poses and execute them well. I have looked at other courses in the past, but I’m so glad that I pulled the trigger on this one. I would definitely purchase a course from her in the future!

    Your posing guide is exactly what I needed to watch in my current stage of business. I've been photographing people for over 16 years and I can say we all tend to get stuck in our ways of shooting. When I watched your course I learned so many little things that I could apply in my own sessions with my couples. Some of the best tips I picked up were the running in the spot moments and the swimming / flying hugs. Thank you for sharing your sessions with the world. I'm forever grateful. I believe no matter how good you think you are, you can always improve and watching BTS sessions like Kierstin is a game changer.

    Where to begin?! Kiersten's posing course is what I needed to push me further creatively. My clients are absolutely LOVING the new poses, and it is completely changing my feed. Her course is so easy to follow, and it feels like your right behind the camera with her. I would highly recommend this course to everyone from beginners to experts.

    I’ve been on shoots with Kierst before and watching her pose is a blast but her posing course dives in SO deep! I love how she explains her thought process through her whole course! Her tip about the flowers and the lens! OMG game changer! I’d been feeling a bit in a rut with my posing and her course brought that little creative spark back just when I needed it most! ♡
