The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast."Posing is an actual art form. You can give a really great dress to a girl, and if they don’t know how to pose in it, the dress falls dead. If the dress has an open neckline and a plunging back then you give them the surprise over-the-shoulder. For me personally, I try to give smiles and no smiles. I think it’s good for them to give steely, sexy, sensual, and then just a happy smile."

If you're laughing and you have a genuine smile, there's no bad photo you can take. My favorite pose is the arm out on the hip. Have your face a little bit tilted—I don’t like to face straight on. Chin up, and you’re good to go."

Use excessive hairspray because if the carpet is outside, it seems to always blow the wrong way. And, last but not least, wear less makeup rather than more. Because when you go into pictures with more makeup, it just looks like a mess."
