Simply Posed – Sandra Coan

I know that a lot of photographers cringe when they hear the word “posing”. Nobody wants stiff and unnatural photos! I know I don’t!

But the truth is when done right posing can look completely natural! And having a posing system in place helps your entire session run smoother, resulting in better photos and happier clients!

A Complete Studio Workflow

I’ve been a newborn and family photographer for almost 20 years! In that time, I’ve developed a system for simply posed newborn and family photography that is safe, efficient and (most importantly) beautiful!

This is the system I use every day in my studio and that you can use too, whether you work in a studio, in your client’s homes or on location.

Baby Led Posing For Newborns

My system uses a baby-led approach for newborns which means I only use positions that newborns are meant to be in. No unnatural poses or props here! Just babies, being babies, in a safe and comfortable way!

Naturally Inspired Posing For Families

My system also uses naturally inspired posing for families and older children, resulting in images that look candid and relaxed.
