Follow these tips when posing for a pic. Maybe you won't dread taking those family photos (as much). There won't be a need to hide behind someone next time you hear, "group photo" at a get-together. You might not become a super model. But they might keep you from having a panic attack when you see yourself in print.
- Don't let your arms hang down on your sides. Lift your elbows out a little bit. Too close to your sides can make a person look much heavier than they really are.
- For a slimming effect, stand with one foot slightly in front of the other. This is popular with celebrities on the red carpet.
- Never stare straight at the lens of the camera. Turn slightly to the side for a much softer look.
- Elongate your neck to make sure there is no double, triple chin added.
- White background is best for picture taking.
- Looking towards the light enhances your eyes.
- Better to have the camera angle down instead of up. If you are taller than the photographer, take a seat.
And what about saying cheese? Don't do it! This is well known to produce a fake and maybe forced smile, not pretty. Instead think of something funny or joke around with others around you for a more natural smile. Natural is always better than staged. Here comes the paparazzi. Get ready!
