[Insideout]

Those before and after pictures are fabulous! What a treat to be a part of that weekend. :)

[cbuffy]

Wow! VERY impressive results! Amazing what a little body positioning can do!

It's interesting to see what little changes were made to each person. I'd like to know WHY some of the changes were made, so that I can better apply whatever principles were used to my own daily life & fashion choices.

For example, sometimes an after pic shows someone in a different top or different pants. Was that a coincidence (like the clothing got smelly or spilled on in between), or specifically done to make the "after" more impressive? Same with hair changes.

I understand the posing is mostly for pictures (it might even be detrimental to be holding that pose, "turtling" your neck, etc. for more than a few minutes at a time) -- and maybe some of this info is even "proprietary." But any info any of the participants (or presenters) are willing to share would be most appreciated!

Such beautiful ladies! :)

[Galadraal]

Wow! some ppl look completely different!

[signlady52]

Amazing how that in these before & after pictures they all look like they lost more inches! Congratulations to all on your hard work! Margie, I too noticed some changes in top lengths etc. that seemed to make a big difference. A lot of them looked younger too!

Margie - I was not a participant but here is my .02 cents. The clothing changes were made to either - make the outfit a better fit (more flattering, a better color for the model or to make the overall look more cohesive. Regarding the hair, I would say either the participant wanted a hair change or it was decided that the changed hair style was more flattering. I have done a "modeling stance" (three quarter view) for years when getting photo's taken as it is more flattering then getting a full front on body shot. The after poses are taken with the object of the models body being shown in the most flattering position. This changes to a degree based on each persons body and what is their best asset or what you want to hide.

Here's an article I just came across today that talks about a few of the points:

Teresa filmed her Strike a Pose Modeling session and behind the scenes in the photo studio. She's wanting to put together a DVD with her tips on how to look great in pictures, plus more! I'm really excited about this idea... sometime in the future, maybe a year or so from now this should be available. Stay tuned!

Wow! How fun! You all look amazing (but I bet you felt like you'd had a workout after your photo session)!!:D
