How to Take Good Selfies You’ll Be Proud to Share on Social Media

 

Did you know that females are more likely to take and share selfies than males?

There’s no doubt that taking selfies can be a great way of capturing memories of special moments and entertaining yourself. So, why not give it a go?

You’re in the right place if you want to learn how to take good selfies. Continue to read to find top-notch selfie tips.

Lighting Matters

Whether you’re taking selfies indoors or outdoors, avoid harsh lighting (like direct sunlight or bright white kitchen lights). Yet, ensure there’s light. Otherwise, your pictures can look blurry, and no photo editing app will be able to fix that.

Keep in mind the prime time to take pictures outdoors is before sunrise and right after sunset.

Pay Attention to Your Background

While your selfie will focus on you, don’t ignore your picture background. Ensure the area behind you is clean and that there are no embarrassing objects. Also, certify your background color is suitable for your photo. Colors like gray, light pink, or white work wonders.

If you’re in a place where the background isn’t ideal, but you still want to take sexy selfies, don’t worry. Take your picture and use adobe to remove background from an image.

However, if you come across a gorgeous landscape or cityscape, leverage it! Use a selfie stick to include the background view in your picture. It’s worth it: you’ll take up more space in the composition and will be able to fit more elements in the shot.

Photo Editing Makes a Difference

Don’t know how to edit pictures? Don’t worry. We have some photo editing tips for you.

Start with the ”bright button” (exposure). This tool will make your images pop, both in print and on the screen. You’ll notice that the photo comes to life after lightening a picture. Just make sure you don’t overdo it.

Then, add some contrast. This tool illuminates the details and brings depth to your images. How? By darkening the shadows and highlighting the rest. So, apply it slowly until you achieve your contrast goals.

In the end, ensure that despite editing your photo, it still looks natural. Think back to what you saw when you took it in the first place (e.g., how beautiful the dress looked in the subject’s body, how blue the sky looked).

Know Your Angles

Every face is unique. Yet, some tricks work for most people, so try them! For instance, if you tilt your head slightly and tuck down your chin, your face will likely look angular. So, give it a go and make it work!

How To Take Good Selfies

Selfies not only capture special moments: they help improve people’s confidence.

So, start practicing your best angles and selecting eye-catching accessories! The truth is, you’ll know how to take good selfies once you begin to take them frequently. It just takes some practice and a good eye for detail.
