It takes only seconds to take a picture but the memories captured in it last a life time. If you find yourself running and hiding every time someone pulls out a camera because you don’t like how you look in photos. Now is the time to stop running and implement the following simple tips so you can start creating some beautiful memories. Whether it’s a special occasion and big event or something has simple has a family reunion or vacation you will look picture perfect in every photo your in.
- Select an outfit that flatters your figure. Be sure that the outfit you chose has a neckline that’s very flattering to you
- Wear only colors that look good on you.
- Unless you’re the bride avoid wearing all white. It will make you look large and distract from your face.
- Don’t wear large bold prints or patterns.
- Wear earnings and a necklace. Even a simple pendent and a plain pair of earrings will add a degree of style to your outfit that will enhance your appearance.
- Always make sure your hair is clean.
- Select hairstyles that are flattering to you. - Use styling products that will hold your style but won’t make your hair appear stiff and unnatural.
- Select a hair color that enhances your complexion
- Avoid extreme hairstyles. You don’t want hair bigger then your head nor do you want to completely pull your hair back from your face because this could make you look older and can even make your head look to small for your body.
- Use only long wearing, smudge proof, water proof cosmetics - Use face powder to set makeup and reduce shine.
- Use a foundation with a matte finish.
- Do not use any cosmetics with a shimmer or shiny texture.
- Use clear light to medium color eye shadow.
- Use a lip balm or lip cream before applying your lipstick.
- Use a medium shade, cream formula lipstick.
- Smile with your eyes and your mouth ( just as the photo is being taking think of someone you love or think of something humorous )
- Brighten your smiles with a teeth whitener. Be sure to discuss with your dentist what product is best for you.
