How to Pose for Glamour Photos
One of the differences between regular photo shots and glamour shots is that the glamour photos bring out a side of you that may otherwise be hidden to others. Many professional photographers also refer to this as creating an "Alter Ego." You essentially get to step out of your comfort zone and become another person. Before taking your glamour shots, you should have your hair and makeup done by a professional makeup artist to ensure you look your best. You should also bring several outfit changes just in case you or the photographer want to change up the look a bit.

Talk with your eyes in the photo. An easy way to practice talking with your eyes is to get in front of a mirror and think of different thoughts. Then use your eyes to indicate what you are feeling. For example, a raised eyebrow can indicate seriousness. Looking down or looking to the side with your eyes can indicate you are in deep thought.
