The jump!

If you’re going to spend ages and ages between the ceremony and the reception posing for the camera, why not make it interesting?

This pose requires much more skill and great timing is needed to capture this pose. It requires the subject to jump from the ground and the photographer captures the subject mid-air.


This popular pose was developed by American portrait photographer, Phlippe Halsman. He once stated: "When you ask a person to jump, his attention is mostly directed toward the act of jumping and the mask falls so that the real person appears." 


The photographer developed a philosophy of jump photography, which he called jumpology.


Happy jumping :)
