hands

MissB

I am doing my first senior portrait today... and Ive been trying to do some research on posing and composition in regards to teens. I've been finding that photos with the hands are more interesting than without... unless its just a face or headshot. Chopped off feet or hands tend to really take away something from the photograph.

I am a self taught photographer... I don't have any formal training... whats the general rule for this... am I on to something? Any one have some favorite senior portraits to share with me... I'd love to see them!!!!
