All poses work for every body, every size, every age. The secret? Relax, breathe, and let Erin guide you.

1. The “S-Curve” (Instant Hourglass)

• Stand sideways to the camera, hips angled 45° away.

• Pop the hip closest to camera out slightly.

• Drop the shoulder farthest from camera for a soft S-shape.

• Bonus: Rest one hand on your hip, fingers relaxed—never clenched.
  Creates curves even if you think you don’t have them.

2. The “Over-the-Shoulder Glance” (Mystery + Allure)

• Look back at the camera over your bare shoulder.

• Chin slightly down, eyes up—think “come hither.”

• Let your hair fall naturally (messy = sexy).

• Pro Tip: Arch your back just a little for a subtle booty lift.
  Perfect for implied nudes or lingerie.

3. The “Knee Pop” (Legs for Days)

• Sit or kneel on the bed/stool.

• Pop one knee up, foot flat, other leg relaxed.

• Lean forward slightly—hands on thigh or bed.

• Variation: Cross ankles for a softer, romantic vibe.
  Elongates legs and hides tummy if you’re self-conscious.

4. The “Hair Flip” (Playful & Flirty)

• Standing or lying down.

• Run fingers through your hair, flip it forward over one shoulder.

• Tilt head slightly, soft smile.

• Movement Hack: Do it 2-3 times—Erin will catch the perfect mid-flip frame.
  Adds energy and hides arms if you want.

5. The “Arch & Reach” (Sensual Spine)

• Lie on your back, knees bent.

• Arch your lower back slightly off the bed.

• Reach arms overhead or behind you—stretch like you just woke up.

• Toes pointed for elegance.
  Creates a stunning, artistic line from fingers to toes.

6. The “Side Lie” (Soft & Dreamy)

• Lie on your side, hips stacked.

• Bottom arm under head or extended.

• Top hand on hip or tracing your waist.

• Knees slightly bent, top knee over bottom.

• Cheat Code: Push hips forward a bit—camera loves the curve.
  Ideal for silk sheets or moody lighting.

7. The “Power Sit” (Confident Queen Energy)

• Sit tall on the edge of a chair or bed.

• Cross one leg over the other (ankle on knee for edge, or knee over knee for elegance).

• Hands on thighs or one on neck.

• Chin parallel to floor, eyes on camera.
  Perfect for bridal boudoir or boss-babe vibes.
