Good Side

For portrait, family & senior photographers

Stop guessing whether they want poses or freedom.

Some clients want exact instructions down to their chin. Others freeze the moment you correct them. Good Side tells you which one you have, before they arrive.

Know which client you have before they sit down.

  1. Directing style, decided

    Pose-led, prompt-led or hands-off, with the words that work for them.

  2. Watch-outs in their own words

    Clients can tell you privately what they're self-conscious about.

  3. A fun pre-session touchpoint

    The quiz becomes part of your client experience, not another form.

A real plan

One client, one way to direct them.

Emma took the quiz before her portrait session. Her photographer got a directing style, a warm-up and what to watch for, including the note she left in her own words.

Session plan · Portrait

Emma: The Quiet Flame

Pose first, then prompt. Give a concrete physical setup (feet, hands, where to look), then a gentle prompt inside it.

Warm-up

  1. Tell them the plan for the session in three sentences before you lift the camera.

Watch for

  1. Avoid an audience: pick quiet spots and start with backs to camera.
  2. In their words: “I always close my eyes in photos”

Every client has a type.
