🛑 Stop Memorizing Poses. 🟢 Start Directing Couples.

Posing is one of the most challenging aspects of wedding and portrait photography, making it one of the most important to master.

You’ve probably tried:

❌ Memorizing poses from Pinterest
❌ Using posing cards
❌ Following inspiration boards


But here’s what happens:

👉 The images still look posed and lack storytelling
👉 You lose spontaneity and creativity during sessions
👉 You revert back to your go-to poses


What if you could walk into every session with complete confidence—knowing exactly how to direct your clients to bring out natural, genuine emotions?

This workshop will give you the tools to do just that. Cue & Capture puts that same system in your pocket on the wedding day.

GET STARTED

Key Concepts

Discover some of the most powerful and transformative concepts you'll master in this workshop

Master Foundation Posing and Micro Posing

Master the 4 core body positions that serve as the foundation for any pose.

Then, effortlessly create thousands of variations with micro-poses—small adjustments to head angles, hands, expressions, and camera perspectives—that transform stiff, static poses into natural, flattering images, all without relying on memorization.

Understand Body Language

Learn how subtle posing details can dramatically impact the feel of an image:

âś… Touchpoints: Create connection through strategic contact
âś… Hand/Wrist Tension: Avoid stiffness and bring natural elegance
✅ Natural Pointers: Guide the viewer’s eye and shape the flow
âś… Head Angles: Enhance emotional connection and storytelling
âś… Stance & Posture: Convey strength, confidence, and mood
âś… ...and more!

Create One-of-a-Kind Group Photos

Go beyond basic symmetrical poses and master editorial-style group posing that incorporates layers, connection points, and dynamic body language—turning ordinary group shots into visually compelling, standout images your clients will love.

Learn Posing Cues

Words Every Client Will Say: "We're awkward, but we want to be natural, fun, & romantic"

Create consistently incredible images with directional cues to elicit genuine, authentic emotions. For example, the image on the left happened right after we told him to "purr in her ear like a kitty cat," you know, just because.

"100% value! Pye is a true leader and educator. I highly recommend this course. A lot of planning, expertise and creativity when into making this course a must have for any contemporary portrait photographer."

@RolandoCocom

"The line that was something like “photographers wait for something to happen and directors make an image happen” was a huge holy s*** idea. It’s so basic but blew me away. Thanks."

Daniel B.

The best workshop slr lounge has ever made! This is better than any reference guide, posing cards, or other tutorials because it shows live demonstrations and shows you have to fix the small details that affect the image. 100% recommended for any wedding photographer
