But I get it … you probably think you have to be born beautiful to look hot in photos.
Guess again! Looking great in photos is a SKILL.
Here are 5 photo posing secrets I learned while working as a fashion photo stylist in NY:
1. Create an hourglass shape
Never face the camera straight on. This gives your body a square, boxy look.
Instead, sit or stand with your hips facing sideways and twist at the waist so your shoulders face forward (see the image above). This creates the illusion of an hourglass shape.
2. Think pretty thoughts
The camera captures everything! If you feel bad about yourself, it will be reflected in your photos.
Do whatever it takes to make yourself feel attractive … Tell yourself you’re hot or imagine that you’re a supermodel. “Pretty thoughts” definitely shine through in photos.
3. Go for natural looking makeup
Don’t pose with dark or sparkly makeup. Dark makeup looks harsh, while sparkly or iridescent makeup don’t reflect light well in photos.
Instead, keep your lips light and play up your eyes for a natural, feminine look. Use lots of powder since camera lights reflect shine.
4. Find your best side
Everybody has a good side and a bad side. Experiment with different facial angles until you find your best look. (Note: a 3/4 view of your face is more flattering than a straight on view.)
Two more tips: Stretch your neck out to avoid a double chin and tilt your chin down slightly to make your eyes look bigger.
5. Keep your arms away from your body
Arms are a trouble spot for many TG girls. Posing with your arms pressed against your body makes them look even bigger. Hold your arms away from your body for a slimming effect.
