Posing - Topic of the day 12/17/24
How do you like to pose for photos? What are some tips or tricks on how to highlight what you are wearing? Do you have any go-to positions you always default to?

i do something stupid that makes me look masc that’s kind of it
Awkwardly posing mainly
i have to compensate for the fact that i’m overly aware of the fact that i have boobs
Main point of my poses is that I want my outfit to be as visible as possible
This is the opposite of my approach
We can tell
i pose like im stepping on you
dabbing, duh :linkDab:
Jk
It's usually something basic like this
i use the same pose in literally every fit lol
pop one hip/knee out with one leg a lil bit forward
Maybe I’ll do Willem Defoe again one of these days
I dunno just look at my waywt posts. same location, same pose, I even use a crack in the paving slabs to line up my tripod
I definitely have a couple defaults but i like to look at my inspo pics and try to pose like the people in the images i like
Weeg your photo's always have some of the best posing
you could sell an online course
I think my best tip for people is to stop standing with their legs so far apart
Even if thats how you stand comfortably it comes across as really stiff in photos
I just imagine im a hostage recording a proof of life video to get the proper stiffness
you could never
way too clean of a pic
i pretty much just stand and look somewhere off to the side, sometimes hook thumbs on pockets in hopes someone can see my rings
I literally had not taken a single selfie with my face in it in my entire life before I joined here
for the most part my fit pics are to show the clothes off as intended without me making a goofy face (mid-blink, mid-speech, etc)
I mostly try to stand to show my outfit but not show too much face and it's not great
Very much same. Unintended consequence of taking so many waywt pics is that I now have twice as many pictures of myself than I ever have before, and I have figured out how to smile in a pic in a way that I actually like
Same, but I find it harder than I would have thought before I started taking outfit pics.
all you need to do is stand in front of a mirror for a few hours, take 43 photos, scrutinize all of them, send them to all of ur friends, decide you look terrible and delete them all, and then mess around with angles until ur proportions look less wacky, take a photo, and never look at it again
Like this usually
When I started posting fits here I originally planned to smile in every photo like @bensev, but it’s easier said than done! The scowl really takes hold of me after the first few shitty attempts at a decent picture
I always like the classic @bensev smile, brings some super positive energy that I need sometimes
Stanced tf up
I smile if my wife takes a picture of me, and scowl if it's a tripod selfie. ❤️
Big fan of @GigerGirl_LV426 (Momo) posing

I pose like that
tyyyyy :blush:
I've been a little lazy about it recently tbh but I'm trying to get back into it (found my tripod lol)
then it's just a matter of my remote shutter + self timer + picking the shots I like and that vibe w the fit the best
I pose the way I do because most of the time I'm snapping a pic in a store mirror and I don't want my face in pic.
Been futzing about with remote camera, but none of the pics I like enough to post
i record myself walking around and pick the 4 frames where I look cutest and then have a coffee and a pastry and pick the one that makes my heart sing
I'm a fan of this method lol
+1 bc pastries
actually incredible recommendation tbh
and then sometimes if the walking is cool enough you can just post the whole clip and it's a fun bit of variety
there were a few that did that recently in waywt and they were very fun
Awe thanks so much!
its also fun because sometimes my neighbors will walk in front of the frame and i have an extremely dorky record of me being like "haha no it's for my internet fashion friends yeah im a pretty big deal like an influencer yk? yeah haha it's crazy"
i use the selfie cam on my phone with a 3 second self timer and pick the frames from the burst that look the best. often times i'll try and do something mid-burst (adjust my hair, put something in my pocket etc.) in hopes of getting a cool frame or two
i personally prefer the results of rolling for a candid freeze-frame to deliberately posing
i feel like we gotta bring back the airplane pose
I normally do a pretty neutral 'standing facing one direction slightly whilst looking in the other', but some of my favourite pics are where I just do something completely different
How many snacks are in your pockets in these photos @Ant ?
The tote bag is loaded up 👀
My finest work i fear
Keep on truckin
i see this and raise you
There is nothing here
okay this one is also really funny
