How to get normal poses?

I am taking portraits of my Sims with the photo studio. Why do the females have such ridiculous and obnoxious poses? I would cancel the action, have the sim take their photo again, and the next pose would be just as ridiculous. I would have to go through this 10 times or so just to get a normal picture of them. The males pose more normally for the most part. Is there a mod or something to have them pose the way you want them to?

  • I wish the studio had a way to decide which poses to use. It's a bit too random, so I often add a wall to hide the sim posing, and place the sim to be photographed in front of that wall, just behaving naturally. It can of course be done without the studio object, but I find it more fun to do it while visiting a photographer's studio where the set up is already in place.

    Check my youtube channel and look for the "Get Creative with Photo Studio" video. I'll soon (1-2 weeks) publish a new video with more photo tips, too :)
  • Poses are dependent on their mood. So if they are feeling flirty, or self-assured, then they will pose according to that.

    Most people use Andrew Pose Player to get sims to pose what they want, and then they just take a normal photo of the sim without using the photo studio.
  • The best way to take pictures is the most expensive camera plus pose player. You don't even need custom poses, the pose player can play every animation in game by name. There is a text file with all the game poses and animations including the photo booth ones.
