Priority Fixes from Your Report

1. Avoid overexposed highlights and deep shadows.
2. Center the subject and keep consistent headroom.
3. Use longer posture and camera angle adjustments to create a more elongated line.
4. Refine silhouette line with stronger posture and clearer garment shape.
5. Clarify silhouette lines with stronger pose structure and cleaner garment drape.

Keep Doing

• Wardrobe separates cleanly from background, keeping shape readable.
• Color palette stays coherent across images, which strengthens the book.

Why This Metric Matters

Framing and pose structure decide whether agencies can read body line, expression intent, and outfit silhouette quickly.

How BModel Measures It

BModel tracks pose-type coverage, missing pose classes, framing alignment, headroom balance, and body geometry signals.

Fix It Now: 5 Actions

1. Shoot full-body, three-quarter, and headshot in the same session.
2. Center subject intentionally before pressing shutter.
3. Keep consistent headroom and avoid accidental crop compression.
4. Use posture cues (chest open, neck lengthened, shoulders set).
5. Retake weak pose types instead of only polishing the strongest one.

Common Mistakes

• Repeating same pose family across all photos.
• Tilting camera to compensate for posture issues.
• Under-occupancy where subject reads too small.
• Keeping dynamic poses that break garment readability.

7-Day Improvement Protocol

1. Day 1: pre-build shot order (headshot, three-quarter, full-body).
2. Day 2-3: execute two rounds with camera height variations.
3. Day 4: remove repeated pose patterns and keep one best per type.
4. Day 5: micro-correct framing and posture in quick retake.
5. Day 6-7: re-audit and check pose/framing deltas.

FAQ
