| October 1, 2020

Many times when we are in the middle of a photo session and we are not used to being in front of the camera, we can feel a bit uncomfortable. That is why we decided to make this guide with some examples of poses that can inspire you for your mini shoot in this location. Portobello Road is characterized by its elegant and colorful style. The walls that surround these brick streets are often the favorite setting for a clean and casual look.

Remember that it is very important to feel comfortable in your own skin so that this is reflected in the photograph, the more relaxed you are, the easier it will be easier to project the image you want in the photo.



This example is one of the essentials within your selection. A big smile breaks all the barriers if you are somewhat shy. Try to convey that confidence in yourself through your smile if you decide to take this example literally, choose your favorite scenario and take a wall as a support to relax your body and add a touch of security, leaning one leg against the wall.
