Getting the best selfies
Taking a photograph from a low angle can create unflattering shadows on your face, while taking it slightly from above enhances your features
Once upon a time, a selfie was nothing but a quick snap, a novelty of the first generation of smartphones sporting a front-facing camera. I’m guilty of taking selfies of myself and the love of my life (my sons).
Like me, many out there are incredibly fussy about how their selfies come out.
Here are 3 tips to get the selfie that counts!
1- Try a trend: If your selfie is going straight to the ’gram, it has to have standout appeal. Try that slightly unwearable but oh-so-good look you saw on the runaway, or the beauty trend dominating your Pinterest boards.
2- Know your angles: Repeat after us: always from above, never from below. Taking a photograph from a low angle can create unflattering shadows on your face, while taking it slightly from above enhances your features.
3- Find your filter: Try a variety of editing apps to ensure your skin always looks flawless.
