Contrary to general opinion, photos taken with a camera often do not show the truth. So why don't you make yourself look thinner? Cameras often have the rule of making things look bigger, so the closer you get, the more disadvantages you have. The next time you pose for a photo, you can overcome this defect by following some tips and tricks for getting in a model body when standing in front of the camera. Read Step 1 below to start learning how to look slimmer when taking photos.

Steps

1. 

   Wear respectful clothes. Before taking a photo, you should choose clothes that help slim down and flatter naturally. Single-color uniforms, especially dark, often feel slim and slim. You should choose the right clothes; If it is too tight, the picture will appear a bad bulge. A stylish loose-fitting outfit might fit, but actually makes you look bigger. Here are some tips for choosing clothes to help you lose weight:
   • Avoid horizontal stripes, as they make the body larger than it really is. Instead, you should choose a vertical stripe pattern to help your body look slimmer.
   • Do not wear clothes with intricate details around the defect. If you choose a dress with a lot of motifs on the abdomen and that's what you want to hide, then the belly will only get more attention. In general, patterned clothing often makes the body look larger than plain clothing.
   • When you want to go out and take pictures, you can wear shaped underwear for great photos.
   • Women should wear high heels to enhance their physique.

2. 

   
   
   Never shoot from the bottom up. This shot causes the face to appear two chins, making the body look shorter and fatter. When taking pictures, you should position the camera at least eye level, or higher. If you don't look like you've gained 25 kg!

3. 

   
   
   Bring your legs forward. When posing upright, you can turn your body to another direction and bring one leg forward, toes point at the camera, and bend your knees. Bring your weight to the back legs. When you are not facing the camera directly, your body will have a depth of field that creates a perfect angle.

4. 

   
   
   Lift your chin up. To avoid double chin, you should raise your chin slightly. Raising your neck is also possible, as long as it doesn't look like you're looking for something. This step helps you to be taller and thinner. However, you need to practice this pose before taking the picture so that you don't have to be too overwhelmed or uncomfortable naturally yourself. In addition, you can also bring your head forward to avoid the case that automatically rear-facing your chin appears.

5. 

   Keep your hands away from your body. You need to position your arms so that they are far away from your body. Arms on hips are the right position to help elevate the curvy waist line. If you release your arms close to each other, it will look quite stiff, and the appearance of arm fat makes them look larger than usual. If you feel that placing your hands on your hips is a lot of attention, you can put your hands on both sides, but should be a little away from your waist and body so you don't get out.

6. 

   Adjust your posture. Stand up straight, keep your shoulders down, and pull in your stomach as if you were trying to zipped tight pants. If you want to pull your stomach in, you need to do delicate work so that other people cannot detect the ribs protruding in the photo. Better to look a bit heavier than to let someone else say, "She got her stomach squeezed!" You just need to maintain the right posture to look taller, thinner and more confident.

7. 

   Proper leg poses. For elongated legs, you should bend your knees slightly, wear heels, or squeeze the quads (front thighs). When taking a photo, you should cross your legs to make your thighs look smaller.

8. 

   Laugh freely instead of saying the word "cheese". While saying this word while taking a photo can be quite fun and cute (if you're a 5th grader at a birthday party), it makes the cheeks bulge because the act of laughing is a bit too much. Instead, smile normally and naturally. You can press the tongue down the back of the throat to make the face look thinner than it really is.
   • If you're not feeling embarrassed, you can take the modeling technique and turn your face away from the camera before shooting; then, turn your head to face the camera and smile as soon as the photographer presses the shutter. This will make your smile more natural and attractive.

9. 

   Maintain a good distance from the camera when taking group pictures. The closer you are to the camera, the fatter you look than everyone else. If you want to be thinner and thinner, move away from the camera. However, if the camera is centered and you are standing in a horizontal line like when taking a party photo, then you should move as close to the center as possible. The person standing at the bottom of the row usually looks bigger than it really is.

10. 

    Avoid direct sunlight. If you take a photo facing the sun, your face will be tilted and wider than normal. Therefore, avoid taking photos in direct sunlight so that the face will not look bad.

11. 

    Tanned skin. While you don't need to artificially tan your skin, sun exposure (don't shoot in direct sunlight!) Helps darken skin and avoids blemishes in photos. The photo itself often makes human skin appear discolored, and the edges on the body are blurred and lacking in sharpness. Dark skin can then help make outline details clearer.

12. 

    Use hair as an advantage. Tie your hair up or in a high bun makes your neck long and make you look thinner. However, if the bun or ponytail is too tight, it can make the face and neck worse by creating rough edges that make the face and upper body bulge larger than it really is. If you let loose a few strands of hair around, the edges are concealed making the face look thinner.

13. 

    Relax. When the critical moment comes, just smile and relax instead of worrying about whether or not you are getting thinner in the picture. If you are overly stressed, your face and body will become stiff and unnatural. If you want to get the perfect shot, it is important that you relax while taking the photo and open your mouth to smile naturally. advertisement
