【Wedding Photos】Is He Doing His Research?
Pre-shoot and wedding day photography. While brides can expand their imagination by looking at many photos of other brides, what about the other leading role, the “groom”?
When the pre-shoot or the wedding day approaches, how many grooms actively search for wedding photos and research stylish poses?
Such grooms are a rare find.
Most grooms end up facing the shoot without specifically preparing anything regarding their posture or poses.
Worried About Whether the Groom Will Look Good!
Men are generally less accustomed to being in front of the camera compared to women.
It's perfectly normal not to know what posture or gaze will make them look cool.
It would be great if the photographer could provide hands-on guidance for poses, but it’s difficult for them to keep paying attention continuously.
In this article, we will introduce two tips for grooms to strike a good pose based on overseas wedding photos!
With just these two tips, he should be able to keep them in mind ♡
Let’s share this with him so that when you look back at the photos later, you won't be disappointed saying, "He looks kind of awkward just standing there..." ♩
Tip 1 for the Groom's Posture: Put Your Hands in Your Pockets
The first tip to make the groom’s posture look good is to put his hands in the pockets of his trousers!
Feel free to have the mindset of putting your hands in the pockets for all shots except for very serious wedding photos.
Hands dangling aimlessly by the sides looks the worst.
Instead of putting all hands completely in the pockets, just hook your fingers in there ☺️
This allows him to wear a sharp tuxedo with a relaxed vibe.
For poses where he stands or walks while holding hands, make sure one hand is in the pocket. This creates a more mature atmosphere ♡
Tip 2 for the Groom's Posture: Shift Weight to One Foot
The second tip is to shift the weight to one foot. When nervous, it’s easy to end up standing stiffly.
If there is no specific pose given, make sure he leans his weight on one foot while standing. ☺️
This creates a triangular silhouette with the legs, making him look stylish!
Also, a pose where he leans against a wall while placing weight on one foot looks cool!
While wedding photography often focuses on the bride, make sure to get solid solo shots of the groom as well ♡
This is a standing posture where weight is on the right foot, with the left foot crossed in front.
The important thing is that the lines of the body should not be straight, but form angles. This creates a fashionable, relaxed vibe ♡
To Make His Photos Look Cool ♡
We’ve shared tips to enhance the groom's posture.

☑ Hands in pockets
☑ Weight on one foot
It might be why overseas photos have that natural and stylish atmosphere. ♡
Share this with him and encourage him to keep these two tips in mind during the shoot!
You might find yourself surprised by a different side of him that makes your heart race.
