Architectural Jumpsuit Twist
Say this to the subject
“Let your weight settle into one leg and keep the other knee easy. Profile stand, torso twist. Keep your eyes direct to camera.”
Photographer cue: Stand in profile, twist torso to camera, extend one arm, hide other. Keep the support secure, place the hands deliberately, and make one small change only after the first frame is settled.
