Follow me on live photo sessions with individuals, couples, ‘fuller figure’ subjects, young and older siblings and large and extended families and watch how I pose them to overcome their natural tendencies to sit or stand like statues and to get some great portraits.
- Real life indoor and outdoor photo sessions
- Warts and all posing i.e. some of them don’t quite work, and I say why!
- Mostly non-model real live people, like you and me,
- Create beautiful family photos by getting your lovely subjects into more natural, relaxed and flattering positions..
- Practice the easy steps in this course and it will pay huge dividends in your portraits
- PDF crib sheets are available for most of lectures, keep them with you
Models aside, the majority of us are not aware of our natural and unconscious body positions and so we don’t usually present ourselves as well as we might. For example, most of us tend not to be concerned with where or how we place our hands and arms, tilt our heads, or position our feet. This course shows how I handle that problem, and how I position and pose people to get great results.
Posing is a powerful skill that will transform your portraits, not only can you copy the ones demonstrated in the videos, but understanding the general basic dynamics of a good pose, will help you to create your own.
Each video has a short introduction and summary of the photo session that just took place, it’s then followed by the live photo session.

This is a brand new course so no reviews yet
Modesty almost forbids me publishing some comments about my teaching style, taken from reviews of my other two courses, but I overcame that, so here they are:-
Bernie is really easy to listen to, and his videos were really entertaining and kept you listening. (I also like his accent!)
Many online courses suffer from over prepared, monotonic boring voice overs but Bernie’s style is a bit like having your mate round to show you how to do something. This even goes to leaving some bloopers in which makes it human and fun.
Bernie is a hoot! He knows his material, presents it well, and is witty to boot. It’s a great combination in a teacher.
I love Bernie’s approach. Such a great instructor,
Bernie is an excellent teacher and his enthusiasm for photography is contagious.
Bernie is a fantastic tutor,
Love it, love it, love it!!
Who this course is for:
- Even if you prefer landscapes, wildlife or sports photography, at one time in your photographic ‘career’, you’re likely to be taking some portraits. So this course is for every photographer, no previous knowledge required.

Molly Southern –
I really enjoy how the videos show the actual sessions and the steps taken to pose and photograph the subjects. A very fun teaching style as well!
Samuel –
Lots of information, hints and tips. I also like the fact that quite a lot of the time he shows you the finished poses, not only in Colour but in Black & White too.
Brianna Banuelos –
I love that the instructor is using real people instead of models, and when he does use models they are instructive in why they pose the way they do.
Conrado Andreola –
Curso barato demais pelo que oferece.
Super recomendo :D:D
Krissy King –
Not only does he body shame, his rhetoric is full of sexism, ablism, agism, and out-dated suggestions. I would not recommend this class to anyone. In the year 2021, surely we can all find ways to be more body positive in our speech and actions.
Rebecca Mounce –
very helpful
Amy Lumpkin –
I love how things are explained and then he shows you with real life people the poses
Zahra Moiz Udaipurwala –
it helped me identify some of the common and general mistakes we make while posing, without realizing them.
Catherine Auman –
Really fun course! While learning a lot and finding my own creativity being stimulated as well.
Shelbie Steeves –
Bernie is a great teacher and it is super helpful seeing the live sessions rather than just explaining what went into each photo. I would and probably will take more courses by him.
Aimee Nicole –
Loving it so far, I definitely struggle with poses
Joshua D Foley –
The instructor does a good job of connecting with the models and with his audience
