Dos and don'ts: 6 Important Selfie tips
I am not a super model, or a model of any kind. In fact, I am the opposite. Just a normal girl with an iPhone. This can get you into all sorts of trouble.
Here are a few things I have learnt:
1. I know it's tempting but the next day you will regret it. Don't let your friends take photos of you either.
2. Check yourself, then look at the camera. Direct eye contact is better in the photo.
3. How many times have you seen this?
4. If we are going to learn anything from Britney Spears, it's this. It looks terrible.
5. Be selfish and think of yourself. No-one looks good hunching.
6. I am so glad social media wasn't around when I was younger. I would have been disowned and probably would never have worked in law.
What are your tips?

excellent tips! especially the ones on checking your background and looking at the camera hole! I prefer to use my back camera because the resolution is better, so like to put a mirror sticker at the back to check that we are in the right position etc.

DeleteBahahaha! Love it!! I'm guilty of the hunching for shorter people one!! Not so much anymore now that my daughter is taller than me but I'll keep it in mind!!
ReplyDeleteI did it for years until I saw a photo of Ella McPherson standing beside Kylie Minogue and she was standing tall.
DeleteExcellent advice! Thankfully I never have to hunch for anyone.

ReplyDeleteI love seeing bad selfies, so I am glad they are sharing them :)
DeleteHead on slight angle, tilt chin down to omit double chins. It's a keeper!
