    I love the fact that you also took "normal photos" to make us see the difference between posing and a normal posture. I also love that you used normal looking people, instead of supermodels (compared to what other channels usually do), and made them look absolutely stunning with this technique.
    Now I feel a little better about my photos, which usually turn out to be terribad.
    Thanks for making these videos!

    Sha-BANG! The best technical video I have ever seen. I learned portrait work back in the late 70's and they never explained the tilt of the head. I did not understand until I became sensitive to elderly clients why it was important. It is such a simple concept and makes such a huge different. Very well explained and entertaining as well. Thanks Peter for giving us such a great tip.
