The Blumes
A well-dressed man and woman stand in a picturesque plaza surrounded by historic arched buildings. The man, sporting a beard and wearing a gray sweater, jeans, and boots, has his hands on his hips in a confident pose. The woman, elegantly attired in a lace white wedding gown, stands with her hands clasped in front of her. Flags hang from the buildings, adding a vibrant touch of color to the scene. The cobblestone ground and ornate lanterns lining the arcade create a charming European ambiance.

Birthday Posing Demonstration

Hey - today's my birthday, so no making fun of me!! I get teased relentlessly by my wife and co-photographer @eileen_blume. She thinks my feminine posing skills are "a little too good." lol :D⠀
.⠀
The teasing is all in good fun. But NO LAUGHING, people! My posing demonstrations are serious business! There's no better way to direct a portrait subject imho.⠀
.⠀
If you're willing to look like a complete goofball, your subject will become willing to add the extra-dramatic body language needed to communicate with the camera.
