7 TIPS IN ORDER TO LOOK YOUR BEST IN PHOTOS + A MUST-HAVE UNDER $100 SLIP DRESS STYLED 2 WAYS

We’ve all been there—standing in front of the camera, trying to strike a pose that flatters our figure. Whether it’s a casual snapshot or a formal portrait, how you position your body can make a world of difference in how you appear. If you want to look taller and slimmer in your photos, here are some essential tips to keep in mind.

PS – The above photo was taken at a fun event I hosted recently at Stanley Korshak with some of my dear friends and fellow influencers and as you can see we’re all standing the correct way – our bodies slightly angled with our front leg a bit in front.  Keep reading for more amazing tips on how to look your best in photos! 

1. Angle Your Body

One of the easiest ways to create a more elongated silhouette is to angle your body slightly to the side. Instead of facing the camera straight on, turn your shoulders about 45 degrees away from the lens. This not only helps create a more dynamic pose but also minimizes the appearance of width, making you look slimmer.

2. Position Your Front Leg

When you angle your body, don’t forget about your legs! Stand with your front leg slightly out in front of the other. This simple shift in position can create the illusion of length, especially when combined with the angled body posture. It gives your figure a more tapered look, enhancing that coveted slender silhouette.

3. Mind Your Posture

Good posture can instantly elevate your presence in photos. Stand tall with your shoulders back and down. Imagine a string pulling your head upwards; this will help you appear taller and more confident. Avoid slouching or leaning too far forward, as it can diminish the slimming effect.

4. Chin Forward, Eyes Up

When posing, extend your chin slightly forward and down. This may feel awkward, but it helps define your jawline and prevents a double chin from appearing. Pair this with looking slightly above the lens; it’ll not only add height but also give your face a radiant, engaging look.

5. Choose Your Clothing Wisely

While posing is crucial, the right outfit can enhance your overall appearance. Opt for vertical stripes, high-waisted pants, or dresses that cinch at the waist to create the illusion of a longer frame. Monochromatic color schemes can also help streamline your look.

6. Practice Your Smile

A genuine smile can instantly brighten any photo. Relax your face, and practice smiling in front of a mirror to find your most flattering expression. Remember, confidence shines through, and when you feel good, it shows!

7. Experiment with Different Angles

Finally, don’t hesitate to try out different angles and poses. Each individual’s body is unique, and what works for one person may not work for another. Take a few test shots and find what makes you feel the best.

With a few simple adjustments, you can transform the way you look in photos. By angling your body, positioning your legs thoughtfully, and maintaining good posture, you’ll not only appear taller and slimmer but also feel more confident in front of the camera. So the next time the shutter clicks, you’ll be ready to shine!
