WEAR BRONZER!!! It keeps the flash from washing out your face. In all my pictures I used to have a nicely tanned body and a stark white face. Bronzer will help your face match your body in pictures and give you a healthy looking glow. I also put some moisturizer on my neck and then apply bronzer so it will stick and my face will blend naturally with the rest of my body.

Okay, I love this post. I believe that I am the worst photogentic person in the world, mainly with my face expressions. Body wise with the poses I tend to do okay.

Despite all of that, I do have a really good “Posing” tip for taking photo’s. I see celebrities do this alot and you may have mentioned this already.

But if you stand up straight with your legs crossed. Slightly turned, and leaning just a little bit on the leg in front, it makes you look longer and slimmer.
Then let one arm hang to your side and the other arm on the hip of the leg in the back.

I have tried this in photos and it really looks glamorous…of course until you get to my face and see one eye closed and twitched lips like I had some sort of seizer.

Stand with your side facing the camera and point your chin over your shoulder – it’s amazingly flattering!

A tip I picked up from a magazine about getting the perfect smile: when you smile, gently press your tongue to the back of your front teeth. It’s supposed to help your smile be more genuine. The article (sorry – I don’t remember the magazine) said Reese Witherspoon uses this technique.

Its true about smiling. It really does make you look more photogenic if you’re smiling.
I always have make up on me, just in case I need to re-do it, and fix any smudges.

These are great tips.
Also, make sure your concealer is the correct shade! Flash is ruthless!
