Upper Body Portraits With Smart Phones

Continuing with tips for posing for casual photos with friends…

When the camera pulls back to include your body, the most important thing to remember is ANGLES. Nothing looks good straight on or flat.

In addition, arms always look bigger when they are pressed against the body. Even a slight bend of the elbow looks more flattering. Put your arm on the table, reach around a friend, put your hand on your hip. Remember to drop your shoulders and shift your chin out and down. Then tap into your feelings and smile your favourite smile.
