Well, I haven't heard of cards with poses on that you can buy, but I think you could probably make your own.

I found that this website has a ton of pose ideas on it: http://www.herrickphoto.co.uk/poses.html

You could maybe print them and cut them out.

@kittymutt
gah! thanks for posting that link. its so great!

this pose card thing is a great idea. seems like soo much fun, especially since im a beginner, so im always sort of stumped when it comes to posing

Hmmm.... some of those poses are a bit on the provocative side. (I should have looked earlier,) be warned. Especially for the under aged.
No drama, just putting it out there.

This thread made me want to research this more, and I don't know why I didn't before. So anything thing that I find and think is interesting I'll post.

It's a cg model of girls, and not the best quality but you can still see the idea of the poses. All the poses are PG.

Here is the main site, it has a lot of pictures of poses. Some more suggestive than others, but I've not come across anything too sensual.

I'm think I may do this as a game for myself and have a photographer pic out of the stack of poses.

Woops! Now that you mention it, they are kind of provocative. Sorry about that. ^_^; They were the first ones I found and it seemed like it had some good poses, but I guess I didn't really look at them clearly enough. But I'm sure there are maybe some that could be used.

Edit: Do'h! How could I forget this site: http://www.posemaniacs.com/

It's for artists, but it could probably be used for cosplay too. They're 3-D and just muscle, so they don't look too provocative. XD

This sounds like an awesome idea! I'd love to try it out when I get my own camera!

[Variegration]

Wow! This looks so useful!! It would probably give you better photos, right? Because then your cosplayers aren't going to have to worry about posing, it makes the whole thing more fun! Thanks for sharing

[coolsteel]

Sounds fun I think I will use this too

Oh God save me.............

[Kaniki]

I just got my amazing camera. xD And I love this idea~! Thank you for mentioning it and posting links. o: I'm tempted to make my own cards now. xD

I think that'd add a ton to the diversity of hall photos, and it'd be a lot of fun! Just make sure to let the cosplayer do their own signature poses or whatever first - if anything, I'd keep the cards around for when they run out of ideas.

There are about 250 poses for females, if you want general and cute posing. There are poses for sitting, standing, full body, head and shoulders and just head shots. I like it because there is a large variety of poses.

FYI: The text is all in Japanese, so you won't get much out of the tutorials if you can't read Japanese. I only use it for the posing examples.

There is a free app named Harajuku Girls 365 and use that as posing examples too.

Great apps! I'm so trying these out!
