Ed mentioned recently that we should each be putting up an image from our latest sessions.  Here is my offering.

Susie,

Thi is excellent.  Good lighting, exposure and white balamce.  I use this pose on occasion but I have her roll the top leg forward so the front knee touches the couch.  This will slenderize the hips.

Thanks Benji, and I have a question about your posing tip.
Are you saying to bring the top leg forward to touch the couch?  Wouldn't that turn her hips more square to the camera or am I misunderstanding what you said to do?

Gin,

As she brings the top leg forward (so the knee will touch the seat) she will also have to slide the bottom hip back to accomodate.  This will make a "S" curve of her torso and the front leg will also have a nice gradual curve to it.
