5 tips to take the perfect selfie
Here is 5 tips on how to take the perfect selfie
Taking selfies is a trend on every social network, young or old it doesn’t matter!
Have you ever snapped a photo, assuming that your hair and makeup were ‘on point’, only to later find you had flyaways and smeared eyeliner?
Of course you can always delete the selfie and take another, but you might as well check yourself out first so you have lots of good selfies to pick from!
Here are 5 tips on how to take the perfect selfie:
1- Background check: An important element in taking pictures is to pick a good, clear background. We’ve all seen those photo fails where someone has taken a selfie in a dirty bedroom with piles of clothes or in the bathroom while someone’s taking care of business. Ooh, not a good idea!
2- Be still: This is especially important when you’re taking a selfie, since you can’t rely on someone else with two steady hands to snap the photo. You’re usually trying to pose, make sure you’re in good lighting and trying to steady a wobbly arm all at the same time. Multi-tasking rules!
3- Edit: When taking pictures, there’s nothing wrong with editing them! Use a filter for a cool vintage feel, crop out some of the photo you don’t like or create a fun collage! Using a filter doesn’t always mean you’re trying to hide something or you’re not being you; it can add a special something to an otherwise plain photo!
4- No mirrors: Whenever you take a selfie, you don’t want to have a mirror in the picture or take a selfie when you are staring into a mirror. You can often see the phone you are using and overall, they typically don’t look that great!
5- Be confident: Be confident and have fun; it’ll show in the photo and you’ll have tons of fun taking the pictures when you’re being yourself and letting loose!
