The AdorkaStock Couples & Romance Poses for Artists book will provide you with plenty of poses you can use again and again to draw your OCs, your favorite ships, and so much more! This full color, spiral bound book will be big enough so you can copy fine details, but small enough to bring with you just about anywhere. Spiral bound lay flat allows you to keep the book open while you work on your drawing.
Diverse models allow you to draw different body types based on real proportions of real people. Enjoy F&F, M&M, and M&F pairings, along with a hint of androgyny. Bring your own imagination to turn these pose reference photos into whatever couples you desire. All poses are safe-for-work (SFW) which means you can bring them anywhere!
This is a mockup! Our book will be similar! <3
Poses will be broken up into content type:
Casual/candid poses
Romantic poses
Tragic poses
Pin-up poses
...And potentially more!
AdorkaStock & PirateLotus-Stock will be the first models for an F&F romance pairing!
Backing this project for a physical tier will get you a special edition 8.5"x5.5" spiral-bound full color book, approximately 25 pages (front and back of pages printed). Our initial goal of $3000 will fund 100 copies of this book with a F&F pairing to start! The initial models will be AdorkaStock and PirateLotus-Stock.
However, as part of this funding goal, we will also be raising funds for wide print-on-demand distribution as a paperback book – without the spiral binding. This includes ISBN cost, proofing for POD services like KDP and IngramSpark, and distribution setup. The print-on-demand book will have a different cover entirely, but contain the same internal content. This distribution allows AdorkaStock to land in bookstores - a first ever!

Whether or not you’re an artist, you likely know that accurate drawing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Artists often draw what they see and encounter in everyday life. That’s where pose references come in handy. Artists can both learn from and reference photographic poses to help bring their artworks to life, giving them a realistic feel and gravity that imagination can’t always do alone.
AdorkaStock has been providing such free and low-cost references to artists for 19+ years.
On top of these photographs being valuable resources for artists, the photos we take are entirely safe-for-work, meaning that teachers can (and have!) use these in their classrooms to help guide future generations of artists to come. Additionally, AdorkaStock poses are generative AI free, meaning you know you're getting the right anatomy lesson when you reference them. :)

Since 2007, AdorkaStock (formerly SenshiStock) has been working as a pose reference model and photographer to bring the artistic community work-safe reference photos. Sarah (she/her) is the main model and owner. Find AdorkaStock on her website AdorkaStock.com, Bluesky, Tumblr, Facebook, Instagram, and Mastodon.
Erin (she/they) has been providing resources for the artistic community for over 15 years. A graphic designer by trade, she prefers to spend her time on the couch with a cat on her lap. But hanging out (sometimes literally) with a group of stellar stock models is a close second.
I'm sharing with a few friend projects, like projects, and artists who have used my resources in the past! Make sure to check out these projects and back your favorites to make more dreams come true!
