    David Suh, a portrait photographer, explains how body language and posing can help people express their authentic selves in photos. He demonstrates techniques for confident posing and argues that it’s a form of self-expression, not just about looking good.

    David! Huge fan of your work since 2022! Love this video so much! it brought me to tears how much I resonate with your message ☺️the way you guide your clients with such grace and confidence! This is the future of posing! And breaking out of these standards we’ve been paralyzed by. You have helped me put into words ( and actions) what I’ve always felt but didn’t know how exactly to express to my photo clients! Thank you so much I really hope we get to meet some day! ❤

    The speak was very nice! But… wearing a suit that is 4 size larger than you and with 3inch under the shoes is a stark contrast with the topic 🤔😚😘

    February 4, 2025 at 5:01 pm

    i used to sit there watching how some people just had this effortless pull. they didn’t even try, but everyone noticed them. i thought it was just something you were born with. then i read this ebook, Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki, and it explained exactly why some people have it and others don’t. it’s not luck, it’s energy. after making a few small shifts, i saw the difference. it’s crazy how much changes when you actually understand what’s going on.

  22. @ARSHANFF2606

    February 4, 2025 at 5:01 pm

    one day i realized no one really paid attention to me. no matter what i did, i felt invisible. i tried changing how i dressed, how i spoke, but nothing worked. then i found this ebook, Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki. it wasn’t about faking confidence, it was about shifting my energy. after applying what it teaches, i started seeing people respond to me differently. not overnight, but in a way that felt real.

    • @VanNguyen-h8q6r

      February 4, 2025 at 10:05 pm

      its luck, it’s me just being
      at the right place at the right time. I met a financial and trading consultant at a seminar back at Los Angeles later last year, where she was featured and interviewed and I reached out to her afterwards.
      Her name is Elizabeth Ann Hanson, I didn’t know much about trading and investing so I spoke to her about it, she then later introduced me to her platform where I and other people could invest.

    • @VanNguyen-h8q6r
