pose
Sit for photos
Pose connects the idea of positioning with the idea of presenting.
To pose is to hold a position, especially for a photograph or portrait: She posed beside the fountain.
A pose is that assumed position.
Figuratively, a pose is an affected manner meant to impress: His cynicism is just a pose.
To pose as someone is to pretend to be them: He posed as a doctor.
To pose a question or problem is to present it for consideration.
