Fashion Photo Shoot

Thanks to Jared Williams Photography for a really fun photo shoot this past weekend!

I am no model, but I do love clothes and won't turn down an opportunity to get dressed up and take some fun pictures! Here are some of my favorites, as well as some funny outtakes!

See below for some tips on how to take a good picture!










Some helpful information about how to look better in pictures thanks to Smashbox cosmetics!

How to Look Thin in Photos:
·         Everyone wants to look their thinnest in photos and a great tip to ensure you do is to stand slightly turned to the side. If your shoulders are perpendicular to the camera, you will look broader. Instead, try turning a bit. Once you’ve hit this position, turn your body slightly and look toward the camera tilting your head down bringing your chin toward your neck.
·         Also, posture is extremely important, if you stand up straight with your shoulders back, you will eliminate the possibility of having any unnecessary bulges that can make you look heavier in photos.

The Perfect Smile:
·         Many people are a little nervous about smiling. They don't think their smile looks good, but the perfect smile is something that often needs a little practice. I tell my clients to practice a smile in the mirror until you get one that you are comfortable and confident with.
·         My favorite is a soft, light smile. This is a smile that doesn't show as much teeth as you would when you are laughing.  It will never appear overdone or fake and will eliminate too much gum or teeth from showing.



Most Importantly, Relax:
                        ·         The more comfortable you are, the better the photograph.
                        ·         If you prepare yourself before the photo with a pose and a smile you love, you are all set
                        ·         Enjoy the moment so it shines through in the photo.
