How to take a selfie with your mobile phone?

First, find a good light source. Good light source is the premise to ensure the quality of photos. For example, in sunny outdoor, you can find a place to avoid direct sunlight as much as possible, because direct sunlight is easy to cause shadows, and it is difficult to pose a good expression when taking selfies. Then finally, if there is really no way to avoid strong light, you can try to turn your back on the light source, and sometimes you can take a beautiful feeling against the light.

Using the principle of light, we began to talk about the methods and skills of taking selfies. First of all, let's talk about the most invincible 45-degree selfie. I believe that more than 90% of self-portraits at this stage are taken like this. Advantages are pointed chin and big eyes, which are absolutely suitable for men, women and children.

The third is to shoot with the head down, with the mobile phone under the chin and shooting from bottom to top. The advantage is that it can highlight the overall feeling and expression, but don't shoot the MM of the face garden like this.

The fourth is to highlight the side of the side shot, because no one's face is completely symmetrical, so we must first know which side of your face looks better. Here we can give you some hints. Studies show that taking pictures with your left face exposed will look better.

The fourth is head-up shooting. Proper head-up shooting can mainly show your beautiful mandibular curve.

Expressions and gestures are also important in selfies. In addition to smiling or smiling, such a selfie is too stiff. So we can look in the mirror and practice more, such as frowning, glaring, pouting and so on, and then find out what suits us best. Practice more and shoot more, and you will find that self-portraits are getting better and better. You can also add some jewelry or props to enrich the picture.

If the early selfie depends on skill, the later focus is on retouching. At present, there are many beauty-oriented apps with functions such as peeling, whitening, local adjustment, and filters. They are also very easy to use, and can beautify photos with one click. I won't tell you the operation here, but teach you some tips in use.

First of all, don't overuse the beauty effect, because the so-called whitening peeling is actually carried out on the basis of erasing the original details of the photo, so it is not recommended to open the beauty under heavy makeup, which will lead the beauty effect. Details such as eyes and mouth can be fine-tuned, but moderately. If it goes too far, it is likely to make a joke.

9/9

Self-portrait records mood, self-portrait records youth, and self-portrait is a life attitude. Many times, as long as you have the impulse to press the shutter, you can boldly show your best side. Master the skills and keep practicing, and you will find that your photos are getting better and better.
