How to take intimate and natural selfies of a couple

How to take intimate and natural selfies of a couple? There are several tips.

1. Don’t look at the camera. Keeping your eyes away from the lens can make your photos look natural. Assume that you are not taking pictures, but are together with your significant other, entering the most relaxed state of your daily life. You can look at each other, you look here and I look over there, look in the same direction, look at something together, etc. , but just don’t stare into the camera.

2. Kiss. Kissing is one of the most common actions in couple photos. A simple kiss like a kiss on the forehead, etc., as soon as the lips touch, everyone can take a picture. Only by "kissing deeply" can the photos be emotional. To show "affection", in addition to those two mouths, other parts of the body must be playful, and you must learn to convey emotions through them. For example, the hands holding the face tightly show the feeling of kissing forcefully, such as kissing while walking, arms hugging each other tightly, such as looking at each other affectionately, and indicating whether to kiss or not.

3. Laugh. You should avoid smiling awkwardly when taking photos. The effect of the photos will be different if you smile well or if you smile poorly. So how can ordinary people make a smile that makes them happy at first sight instead of an awkward smile without emotion? I have a trick, which is to make a sound. When you try to laugh "hahaha" from your mouth and make your belly tremble at the same time, the smile shown in the photo will be very natural. Girls with ugly teeth can slightly cover their mouths with their hands and smile, which not only hides their shortcomings but also enriches their body movements. If the body can cooperate with the laughter, the effect will be better.

4. Use props. Using props during shooting can not only alleviate the embarrassment of not having a pose, but also enrich the content of the photo. A glass of water, a bottle of wine, a book, a piece of bread, etc. can all be used as props. It is important to note that the props should fit the overall mood of the photo. Books are very good props, pretending to be literary and natural at the same time.

5. Design the plot. Design a storyline that can help two people get into the mood quickly, such as simulating a first date scene, where a girl watches a boy play basketball, etc. The scene will look life-like and natural.
