How to Pose for Wedding Photos
- Study the Hollywood starlets who knew how to show off their best features. The most famous pose involves you standing turned about 45 degrees towards the camera, with one foot in front of the other and the weight of your body falling on the foot that’s behind you. This pose is something you see most Hollywood VIPs do on the red carpet, and there’s a very good reason it’s so popular. This pose flatters everyone, regardless of height, body shape, or size.
- Practice in the mirror. Sure, it might feel a bit weird to do it, but trust us. It can make a world of difference. Not because you’ll be able to reproduce those exact poses in front of the camera, but because it will give you self-confidence when you’re being photographed.
- Choose adequate makeup. Most bridal makeup styles are great on camera. But there are a few things to avoid because they aren’t very flattering for everyone. For example, pink (especially as an eyeshadow) tends to make people look more tired.
- Last but definitely not least, smile. It’s the one secret ingredient that makes you truly radiant in your wedding photos. If you don’t want to grin in all of your pictures, practice a slight smile. The kind that’s barely there, almost like it’s just an “eye smile”. It will still make you look amazing in your wedding photos!
