I normally don't use models in my photography, but I like to take pictures of my girlfriend. She is beautiful but she is self-conscious about her legs. Are there poses that are good to make her legs look more slender?

Well it doesn't have to be all about the poses, but maybe the answer is in what she wears. Try having her put on darker colored tights and a pair of HIGH heels makes the legs look tremendously thinner, and longer as well. Darker legs also make for a more attractive look, so if she's lighter just tell her to throw on some foundation and voilà!

What types of scenes are you going to be photographing her in? Most everyday type photos don't have to be full body shots. Also depending on how her legs actually look sometimes a side angle shot can bring them closer making them appear different then what they actually are.

Do d things in ease manner... make her smile n u ll get best shot clicked. Especially click the pic when she is not noticing that camera is around... so she can be herself...
