How to Photograph Couples With Height Difference

Get my FREE course "Portrait Photography Quickstart" here: www.jerryghionis.com/how-to-p...
So far I've covered the basics of posing anyone. But, when it comes to photographing a couple that is noticeably different height-wise, you can end up with some images that accidentally accentuate this fact. Also, it can affect the overall composition.
This video will give you my tricks, that I've developed over the last 20 years as a pro photographer. This ensures that the couple looks great, your composition looks great, and, when you look at the image you aren't distracted by gaping holes left by a height difference.
Posing is one of the main things I think photographers forget to learn about and I'm here to help. Enjoy!

Its a confidence booster and I have gotten many compliments. Also, I've found, as you've said, men actually appreciate posing guidance. It creates a more balanced situation when its not only the female being posed.

This brougt me to a genereal question: How do you set focus (and aperture) for Couples or Groups? I'd rather not comebine two shots with different focus in post. On the other hand "I do like sharp objects". Thanks for all the great advisory.

    You would. 5'5 is a fixed length but short has no set length. When we say something is short, it is always in comparison to something else. So if you are comparing a 5'5 woman to the average height of women in North America, you'd never call her short. If you see that see same woman playing on a professional basketball team, then when you're comparing her to her teammates, odds are, she'll seem short to you.

    i actually think the height difference add a perspective in that u can take the to people so long as there both handsome and beautifull capture there real dimentions in there most natrtruly cool poses together how ever it is ..then take many other photos where u bring them closer with simple things like lowering one leg and bring the camera closer as long as the guys not a stiff goofy dude it is actually just more dimensions where as if the dudes the same height and u want to add a head over head shot she has to bend or he has to get on top of something so the taller male height shouldn't be much issue so long as the mans not a goof ball and the photographers not dumb!! like these to look absolutly cool with there height differance to me HES A MAN hes not a female he just need to look manly and cool in the picture most of all so depending on the clothing warn and vibes is where hed compinsate hieght bc men are sports and ruff and tuff beings much more so then woman so to give off"im alot bigger then she" can actually be very cool if shes looking somewhat "|my hero ish" in the shot but most important is how well the photagrapher can understand the energy so in some cases like this take 10000000 photos till u get the idea that u have FORGET PERFECTION ITS FOOLISH WHEN IT COME TO HUMANS TO CHASE IT BC U LOOSE ALL THE OTHER ASPECTS
