Why are print models told to keep their chin down and face pushed outward?

To avoid having shadows on their face.

Because the man wants to keep you down !\n\n...not really, it's because they want to create a "well rounded person"...which appears to take some time.

Many people think it's a military like stance.  In actuality, your body should be properly aligned by one part sitting atop another.  Imagine yourself or have someone look at you from the side.  Your major joints should be along a common midline: your hips should be over your knees (not locked back), your shoulders over your hips (not chest pushed forward and shoulders back) and your head over your shoulders.  Balanced weight, which may mean your calves are behind this midline, thighs in front, butt behind, etc.  Look up alexander technique and feldenkris method for more information and exercises relating to posture.

Yes, photographs normally lie about one's look in order to keep their customers' happy.But if your worried about it, don't be.Looks can be easily modified.

Tightening the muscles before you get into the pose to inhibit air from getting in could help. In such a pose when you're open like that, air can leak in, and then when you get out of the position your muscles close up again, thus pushing out the air that's been accumulated.\n\nI hope you know which muscles I'm talking about.

Who wants to ride on an ironing board?\n\nI have dated all sizes of girls, the relationships that lasted the longest were with girls that had more going for them than their looks.  If someone can't see past a few extra pounds they are shortsighted, narrow-minded and immature.  \n\nYou see yourself in the mirror everyday.  This familiarity may cause you to overemphasize flaws you think you have that other people either will never notice, not care about, or find endearing.\n  \nExample:  I have two dimples in my chin.  One horizontal and one vertical.  I think it looks like my chin was crushed by a 2x4, but ALL of the girls I've dated have told me it is sexy.

I wanted to know for myself why, and I am glad I came across your posting.  \n\nI took anatomy and physiology and found out by my professor that you move so much during the night and your face has so much pressure built up by pillows, your arms, hands, and etc.  \n\nHope that was scientific enough for you.

I find it quite intriguing.  Your pose is both sexually provocative and somewhat demure, particularly in that your face is hidden by your hand in a gesture reminiscent of those who are avoiding the press.  You ask for privacy at the same time that you are wholly exposed.  Moreover, the eye on your hand implies a desire to both see and be seen that you haven't quite come to terms with.  You are utterly conflicted.

We should thank Rap or R&B artists, because of them, 3ft people won't be out of job! \n\nNah, their heads have too much sh*ts, which is why they're so heavy so they have to stoop down sometimes.

Models need portfolios (professional shots of them modeling) so they often do TFP, which means "trade for prints" with a professional photographer who gives the model copies of the photos for their portfolio and keeps some for themselves.

posture is important, arms, mouth, eyes.

The same reason why they don't carry plus size clothing for many of their clothing lines.\n\nIf you see someone beautiful wearing an outfit, the viewer makes a connection that the clothes they are wearing are helping them look like that. They're afraid that if someone thinks that plus size models are fat and ungly, they'll associate that with what they're wearing.\n\nThe reason why companies are starting to use plus size models is because its a gimick and gets them good publicity. The number of plus size people is huge (no pun intended) and it continues to grow. These are all consumers.

tuck your chin into your chest. make sure they are on your head comfortably but securely. led with you hands then the top of your head.  Don't look foward, look down.  keep practicing.
