Try holding a prop like a cup of coffee or handbag to relieve your hand of awkwardness. It can be awkward figuring out what to do with your hands/arms in photos since they can enhance the nervousness you may feel. You’ll look slimmer and the photo will be more flattering overall. Turn your shoulders so you’re showing a thinner profile. When you pose head on in a photo, you tend to look bigger. Try posing with your hand on your hip to alleviate these issues. Naturally, when we pose for a photo, we tend to leave our arms flat at our sides, but this can make you look awkward and uncomfortable and can also make your arms appear bigger than they are. Tame frizz as camera flash can highlight flyaways, don’t use too much hair product to keep your hair from looking wet and crunchy, and flip your head over right before the picture to give it some volume (if your hairstyle allows it). The last thing you want in a photo is for your hair to look flat and lifeless. These both open up your eyes, allowing more light to hit them – that’s how you get that twinkle!

Your outfit can make all the difference in a photo. Try different poses and practice angling your body in familiar positions that you can re-create in front of a camera. Practice in front of a mirror or even in front of a camera to determine your best angles, poses and smiles. If you want to know how to be more photogenic, you have to practice. Practicing your most flattering poses and smiles isn’t just for models. Take note of things you do and don’t like so you can look great in photos moving forward! You also may not like when the camera hits you on a certain angle, or notice you look much better in photos when you smile. Can you spot the differences? Perhaps you notice you look better in certain clothing options or when your hair is a certain way. Look at photos of yourself (ones you look good in and ones you look not so good in) and determine why you look good or bad. ![]()
