How do fat people look good in photos?

With the development of the times, many people have begun to have double chins, perhaps because their living standards are too high. But how can such photos look good? This is a very serious problem! It really doesn’t look good in comparison!

So, in order to solve this problem, the editor specially compiled for you how to take photos of fat people without showing a double chin!

1. Neck-stretching pose

First, let’s take a look at the most basic neck-stretching pose. This trick is used to take frontal photos of people sitting upright (such as ID photos), and it works wonders!

The specific action is: extend your neck slightly forward. In this way, your jaw muscles will be tightened, the accumulated fat will naturally be reduced, and the double chin will naturally disappear.

Well, saying "disappear" may be an exaggeration. Some double chins are so big that you can't make them disappear no matter how long you stretch your neck - but at least it can make it look less obvious.

We can see that after the chubby handsome boy adopted the "neck-stretching pose", his double chin, which was not too big, disappeared:

It needs attention The most important thing is, don't stretch your neck too far - stretching your neck too long will not only make people think of a turtle, but your expression will also become stiff due to this uncomfortable position.

Another negative effect is that this method will make your neck look shorter; however, you can offset this negative effect by wearing low-cut clothing.

2. Sideways posture

Slightly turn sideways and rotate your neck so that the angle of rotation of your neck is larger than that of your body. This can stretch the meat on the neck more naturally and achieve the effect of eliminating double chins.

The difference in appearance between the chubby handsome guy before and after the sideways posture is quite big:

Compared with the neck-stretching pose, this move is more subtle and natural, and has an impact on the expression. It is also smaller; at the same time, the side view is inherently thinner than the front view.

The disadvantage of this method is that it reduces the double chin to a small extent (this action has limited stretching of the chin muscles), and is only suitable for people with "mild double chins".

3. High-light position

This method does not require the subject to adjust his posture, and it is very effective in reducing the double chin, but it has great limitations in terms of applicable groups. : Suitable for men only.

This is not sexism, the real reason will be known below.

The specific operation is: adjust the light level higher and let the light hit the face from top to bottom, like this:

It really works! This kind of approximate top light The light position can form more shadows on the face, making the facial features more three-dimensional and the lines firmer (however, this effect does not look good on women).

At the same time, the chin part naturally becomes a shadow, and it is naturally impossible to see whether there is a double chin:

What needs to be paid attention to in this method is that the light position and height must be appropriate. , the chin should be turned into a shadow, and the shadows on the facial features should not be too much.

If the light level is too high, it will form an effect similar to top light, with large shadows in the eye sockets, cheeks, philtrum, and lower lip, which is very unsightly:

If you don’t want to To create this "cold-blooded perverted murderer" feeling, don't set the lighting position too high.

4. High-camera style

If you have seen the scene of girls holding up their mobile phones to take selfies, I don’t need to introduce this method.

Raise the camera position (or lower the height of the face) and shoot at a 45° angle from top to bottom, so that the double chin cannot be seen at all (it is blocked), and the face will appear to be sharper.

Whether you are a man or a woman, you should actually use this method to shoot. On the premise of maintaining good looks, making people look as good as possible is the purpose and significance of portrait photography~

Look at our handsome and chubby male protagonist, has he become more handsome again:< /p>

5. Wide-angle close-up type

The distortion of the wide-angle lens can make the face look smaller! Moreover, the closer you are to the lens, the more obvious this effect will be.

Don’t believe it? Koldunov used a 24mm wide-angle lens to shoot portraits at different distances, and later cropped out close-ups of the faces to create this comparison picture:

From this picture We can see that as the distance from the lens to the face shrinks, wide-angle distortion becomes more and more obvious, and the face of the chubby handsome guy also becomes smaller.

However, if the distance is too close and the distortion effect is too strong, the chubby handsome guy will no longer look like an earthling. So, controlling the distance is very important. Take a few more pictures and try them out.

6. The ultimate nirvana

What should you do if you encounter such a super-large double chin and insist on photographing a "double chin-free" look?

In response to this problem, if you don’t take pictures of your chin, you don’t have a double chin!

Okay, I hope everyone will learn how to take photos of themselves handsomely!
