I shoot High school grads all the time!. I always shoot "you at your best" Looking at your portrait here I'd say Angle your poses stretch out to slim down (I'm not calling you fat!) You do look big boned and have a full face!. Try laying on your back, up on your elbows, have the photographer stand over you to the side and look up at him (to the side) try some with a real smile and some looking slightly down from the camera (not down)!. with and without smiles! this is a fantastic pose for most woman!. close up shots look great shooting Straight down, you look up with your arms crossed in the front of you with your chin slightly touching your forearm and head slightly tilted!.
Hope this helps and you get some beautiful portraits, TaraWww@QuestionHome@Com

Why don't you do some of them sitting on your horse or 4wheelers if you can get your dogs to sit still you should do some pictures with them also definitely include soccer

also maybe you should take a picture with you walking your horse with an open feild behind you in the sun I'll try and find a picture of what I'm talking about

Please hold!.!.!.!.!.

I guess kinda like this but more from the front/side but have you looking somewhere else not at the camera

You shouldn't care if people call you a redneck! I'm a redneck BE PROUD!!! :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

You could have the setting be at a big red barn or county fair (if one is going on)!. Some shots by farm equipment with the dogs or by your horses would be nice!. Definitely try to have them done outdoors, since it sounds like many of your interests are country-based!. Have fun with it and try a few different spots!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Do one with your dogs! I did one with my dogs and it was SO cute!. also, do you play on a soccer team!? I did a picture in my lacross uniform!. Do one on a horse or in a barn! Anything that captures your spirit and essence!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Outdoor pics are awesome! Make sure to get some black and white!. They can really hide flaws if ya have some to hide - LOL! Before hand practice expressions and smiles in the mirror (not kidding) then you will be sure to give your best to the camara!. Look online at other photo studio pics to get some pose ideas!. Anything goes these days!Www@QuestionHome@Com

anything outdoors works!. maybe a beautiful field behind you!. or next to your horse!. keep it simple!. afterall, that will be the one everyone looks at for years to come!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Take pictures of a girl dressed up fancy lieing on a hill of hay or on a horse it shows even though u changed to a glamour person who still remember ur roots

im not saying it wsnt glamourousWww@QuestionHome@Com

Some things with your horse or something is awesome!. Maybe the traditional in a tree thing too!Www@QuestionHome@Com

lol maybe 1 with u kissin ur brotherWww@QuestionHome@Com

Way to go girl!.!.!.Be proud of where your from!.!.!.I think more people should reflect where there roots came from!. Tell your cousin that some of the best photos are the ones taken when you are out doing the things you love, with the ones you love!. Just take the dog, the soccer ball, the 4 wheeler and take a nice afternoon and go play, have your cousin follow you and take shots while your playing with the dog, or playing soccer,etc!. Try to stay away from posed pics as they feel so plastic and pretend!. you will be suprised what kind of great shots he will get when he captures you!.!.!.just being you!. God bless & Good luck!.
