I couldn’t stop at just one list! There are so many creative and fun poses to try during your senior session, so here’s round two of my favorites. These poses bring out personality, style, and add a splash of fun to the session.
1. Criss-Crossed Applesauce
This playful, seated pose is perfect for showing off a relaxed and approachable side. Whether we’re in the middle of a field, on a rustic dock, or even in a studio setting, this pose gives a super chill vibe. Add a slight lean forward with your hands resting on your knees, or look off to the side for a natural, dreamy look. Bonus: it’s comfy, too!






2. Hands in Hair
The hands-in-hair pose is all about confidence and movement. Whether you’re running your fingers through your hair, tousling it slightly, or holding it up in a playful way, this pose is perfect for capturing carefree, candid vibes. It’s also a great way to add energy to your photos while keeping it natural and fun.






3. The Chicken Wing Pose
Don’t let the funny name fool you—this pose looks amazing! Place your hand on your lower back with your elbow slightly out, like a chicken wing (hence the name). It’s perfect for creating strong lines and showing off a bold, self-assured attitude. Pair it with a smile, a smirk, or even a fierce gaze for maximum impact.




4. Twirl Moment
Twirling is such a fun way to show off your outfit and add movement to your session. Whether it’s a flowy dress or even a fun cardigan, we’ll capture that perfect spin to highlight your style and personality.
