Ideas for fun prom photos?

MikePetroskyy · 5th of May 2008 (Mon)

I was recently asked to shoot "posed" photos for a very small local school. I'll only have 20-30 couples, and have the logistics worked out (I did another formal dance for them earlier in the year).

The prom director has indicated that the students want fun, relaxed photos, not the traditional, standing beside each other, prom type of shots. I was wondering if anyone could share some "fun" poses to have the students try out. I really want to let the kids have a good time and for their personalities to come through.

Thanks!

hmm. piggy back shots, the "charlie angles pose," back to back. Have the guys look like they are sassing the girl or something and the girl rolling her eyes.. These are just a few things that popped in my head..
