i think this works best when the action being taken has a beginning and ending that the viewer can assume. other common gestures, such as hand hearts or holding out the skirt, usually seem to be poses that are only happening for the photo. they are not things you would expect the subject to do if they were not being photographed. they are performative gestures rather than functional ones, so they don't convey a sense of "time", in my opinion.
