I come from a long line of first-born women and there are currently five living generations (my infant daughter, myself, my mom, my grandma, and my great grandma). The older three generations are similar in height, around 5 feet, meanwhile I’m 5’7. My mom wants to have professional photos taken of the five of us but pictures have always been a bit awkward because my height makes me stand out and look huge compared to the others. I would love to not hate these photos. What are some ways that these photos can be posed to make the height difference a little less extreme? I’m sure our photographer will have some ideas but I would appreciate some suggestions beforehand.
You should sit, with the baby in your lap
Put Kevin up front so he looks as tall as his wife.
Personally, I don’t see the issue. I’m going to go the polar opposite of most of the other comments telling you how to hide your height and say stand tall and proud. Or short, or however this post finds you. I hope you totally rock your natural appearance!
Appearance wise I’m sure I check all the boxes for things that need to be “fixed”, but you only get but a short time on this planet and I’m going to let haters hate and not sweat the rest.
I like the couch idea. Also gives a lot more ideas for portraits other than some senior portrait dystopia
What about a slope effect, where you have the heights going from shortest to tallest. Like one person kneeling one crouching one crouching less and so on. You could crouching if you didn’t want to be the tallest. I think it would give an interesting fun look to your pics. *
