Photos from models' weddings are a great source of inspiration for bride and groom poses. After all, who better to learn from than someone who strikes a pose for a living? Here are six pictures of newly-married couples where the bride is no stranger to the camera.
Natasha Poly and Peter Bakker
Russian supermodel Natasha Poly married Dutch businessman Peter Bakker in Saint Tropez back in 2011. This pose shows off the deep back cut of her dress, the ornate sleeves, and her beautiful ring. It blends sensuality with strength -- her husband is supporting her with both arms, and in his embrace Natasha looks strong and confident. Not to mention blissfully happy!
Australian model Kristy Hinze married entrepreneur James Clark in 2009. This wedding photograph captures a comfortable and relaxed couple. Here, Kristy's vibrant smile and gorgeous earrings are on display.
and Jared Kushner
Although she focuses primarily on business now, Ivanka Trump spent nearly a decade modeling. When she married Jared Kushner in 2009, it looks like she drew from her modeling past when posing for their wedding pictures. In this photo, she tilts her head to reveal a flattering profile, twists to her shoulders slightly toward the camera to slim her waistline, and smiles genuinely.
Media darling and supermodel Coco Rocha married interior designer James Conran in 2010. This picture captures not only an earnest kiss, but also the stunning scenery that made up the backdrop of their wedding. It’s an intimate bride and groom pose, but is taken from far enough of a distance that it isn’t intrusive.
Although she may be renowned for her waif figure and steely pout, Kate Moss looks cheerful and relaxed in this picture with guitarist Jamie Hince and their flower girls. Her veil picks up the sunlight, further enhancing her glow.
Model Molly Sims lets her bouquet hang loose in this picture, offering a casual alternative to the popular pose where the bride and groom both grip the flowers. It also reveals the elegant veil gliding down her back.
Since models are masters of working it in front of the camera, their wedding photographs can be a great place to find flattering poses for your big day. But remember, there is not much point looking photogenic if your photos don’t look like you. Twist inspiration from models to suit your personality and style. Go with bride and groom poses that make you look great and feel even better.
