For all the ladies, out there - check out these various poses for your next sexy photo shoot.

4. Unbothered

For shy models, offer the "unbothered" pose. Advise your client not to think too much. The result is a hot attitude-filled self-portrait.

5. Posted up

The "posted up" selfie is a great suggestion for anyone looking for classy sexy poses. Sit or perch on a table or window sill and with the front or back camera snap a selfie.

6. Half-face

One great tip to offer your client is to tantalize the viewer with mystery. Suggest only showing half the subject's face. Cover the other half with hair, a hat, even their hand!

7. All in the details

Everyone likes to see up close and personal when it comes to viewing sexy selfies on their feed.

8. Reflections

There are plenty of sexy mirror poses to offer your clients, but we want you to encourage them to play with mirrors to create more dynamic selfies.

Remind everyone that sexy selfies are playful! Even a smirk can offer an abundance of charisma.

Seductive eyes come in a variety of versions. But for the nicer girls, tell them to work their sweet doe eyes for pure seduction.

12. Make them want candy

Encourage people to use props in their selfies. Especially any props drawing attention to the mouth. Like, candy.

Okay, so candy isn't your model's thing. Just tell them to pick up their favorite iced Starbucks drink and pose with a straw.

Sometimes, you have to state the obvious. Speak up for cleavage, a little should be in every seductive selfie.

Actually, this might be the best one. It feels like every hot girl has a pose with their boobs out but partially covered. Encourage your client to do the same small boobs or big boobs! The photographer/model Julia Otest says, "...don’t be afraid of doing this even if you have big boobies."
