It’s all about selfies these days. In my travels I see hundreds of people taking
selfies everywhere each week. Everyone
wants to have it look just right and have it reflect exactly where they are and
what they’re doing. Here are five simple
tips to make your selfies look fantastic!
1.
It’s all about the angles. Holding the camera low and taking pics from
below the chin just doesn’t make anyone look good. When taking a selfie, hold the phone so that
the bottom of it is level with your eyes or higher. Or, better yet, use a selfie stick, they seem
kind of silly in every way, but that actually work, because it forces you to
hold the phone up higher. Additionally,
don’t look straight at the camera, have a slight tilt for better pics.
2.
Be yourself!
No fake smiles or grins. Natural big
smiles are always best. Practicing in a
mirror for the just right big beautiful smile can help you get the right smile
in your selfies.
3.
Beauty in numbers. In this we mean, take a lot of selfies. Not 10 or 12, we mean a lot… 100’s to get the
perfect pics. Some people will turn
their camera on video for two minutes or so and do various selfies, then scroll
thru the video one frame at a time to get great selfies.
4.
Avoid shadows.
There’s nothing worse than having a huge shadow through your
selfie. Always face directly into or
away from the sun. The best time for
great pics is sunrise and sunset.
5.
Lastly and most importantly is natural lighting.
Find a window or go outside. To reflect some of the natural lighting, try holding a white piece of paper under your chin, this will help with any shadows and the
dreaded double chin.
I hope these few simple selfie tips will help you take better
selfie pics and have more fun with your cameras. As always, please remember to enjoy and
record every adventure!
