Classic Feet Photo Poses
Let's look at some of the classic foot poses.
Relaxed Soles
This is a very easy pose. You can try these feet pic poses sitting, lying or even standing. Just capture the feet together. The front part and the sole, both from different angles, setting, with or without props.
Sit back and relax, bringing your legs in front showing your soles. Put the camera on a tripod which will capture the underneath of both of your feet. Keep the feet together and show the beautiful soles. Keeping the feet together shows off the slopes that the toenails create. And red and white coloring of the soles with the marks can be seen properly. That’s what some eyes are looking for!
Look at the pose above, here we have the soles of the feet with sunshine falling. The setting is on some rocks, it indicates an outdoor shoot clearly. What vibes do you get from here? A vacation mood and maybe other feelings based on your situation. And if you look below, look at the photo, you can call it the same pose; relaxed soles but this one creates a totally different mood. The one comes on a bed, a fresh morning sun falling off; you feel like starting a day with those relaxed feet. However, both of the poses make two beautiful views of the feet. Angles in photography are amazing, right?
Scrunch Pose
In the next pose you don’t need to move your feet. Just pull back your feet back, bend your toes a little and squeeze your soles. Scrunch your toes hard and push your heels into the surface so that the wrinkles get prominent. There your camera will get the wrinkles in a red canvas of your soles along with the toenails. You might know, the sole lovers are addicted to wrinkles!
Toe Pointed
Point your toes, scrunch them as hard as possible and show the sole and plumpy toes & nails. You can do this pose lifting your feet up in the air or in water or showing off your face from the back. This pose is common for good feet pictures.
Toe Spread
Another killer pose for foot pic is toe spread. Spread your toes as much as you can and click the photo. The click is amazing from both sides. You can take it from behind to catch the sole or you can catch from front.
Flex Pose
In flex pose pull your toes back & make a gap between two feet. Just touch one toe with another and make any wave-like shape and show the curve of your arches.
Crossed Soles
Put one of your feet on the other and make the cross sole pose. There you can repeat the scrunch, toe point, toe spread or flex poses. You can also stack one sole on the other and repeat these poses. Wrinkles on the sole and spread toes are actually loved most by the foot fetishes.
Here, another way to show how you can be creative and diverse with the same pose! The above one is a pose with standing cross soles and the one below, is a sitting crossed soles pose.
Look at the two photos above; same pose, one standing and other sitting. These two poses are constructed two ways from two angles and that made total different stories, right?
Seat on Your Legs
If you are looking for the answer to how to take sexy feet pics, sit on your back showing the legs while you keep the sole facing the camera. This can show the arches and make it look detailed. Show some skin, legs and limbs; make it tempting.
Feet in the Air
Lift your leg and point your toes up making your feet look seductive. You can touch one of your legs with another thumbnail as if they are caressing each other. Bring your calf muscle from various angles.
4th Hole Foot Pic
This is another adorable pose. This is where you make a vis-à-vis posture facing one foot to another. It makes a leaf-like shape and creates a tunnel. Take it from different angles because every angle defines a new sense in foot fetish.

Feet Pic - What’s the Perfect Foot for Foot Modeling?
Well, before proceeding to the solution, I would like to clarify a biggie that stops people from being foot models. That is, “oh my/your feet are not beautiful”. That complex lets a group of people benefit and the other stays behind. And to me that standardization of beauty is the ugliest idea. Since you have legs and feet, march forward and use your treasure!
If you are a footographer, don’t be silly and look for a model with “beautiful” or “sexy” feet. That stigma of ‘’beautiful model’’ is being de-constructed in the industries. The power of efficiency is the new zeal. It’s about the skill of posing, photographing and editing - in short(read in elaboration 😉) carrying the majesty of creation with grace, not limiting in structures of physical appearance.
So, yeah, if you are a foot photographer or wanna sell your foot photos online; don’t stop for small and cute feet. Look for a healthy pair of feet that know how to pose for feet pictures.
Maintain Feet Health
You might have gone through the words to pamper your feet and beautify them a lot more. Well, yes, to stand out from the competition, you must take extra care of your feet. If your feet are not glowing, the ultimate result will be hopeless.
Having healthy looking feet will help you make money online with foot pictures. Go for a pedicure, soak your feet, exfoliate with foot scrub, wax and moisturize your feet regularly. Get your nails done, apply SPF to protect your skin from UV rays.
Postscript
Those who admire your foot photo or the marketers who buy your foot pic always look for diverse options. They not only look for stunning poses, your photos need to fulfill the needs of the audience. Show plenty of poses and serve the purpose soulfully. Get a relevant ambiance and decorate your foot for a successful visual impact.
