How to Look HOT in Your Femme Photos
Comments
I love, love, LOVE seeing the photos you gals post to my blog!
Photos are a great way to share your feminine side with the world … and they can give you a huge confidence boost as a woman.
But I get it … you probably think you have to be born beautiful to look hot in photos.
Guess again! Looking great in photos is a SKILL.
Here are 5 photo posing secrets I learned while working as a fashion photo stylist in NY:
1. Create an hourglass shape
Never face the camera straight on. This gives your body a square, boxy look.
Instead, sit or stand with your hips facing sideways and twist at the waist so your shoulders face forward (see the image above). This creates the illusion of an hourglass shape.
2. Think pretty thoughts
The camera captures everything! If you feel bad about yourself, it will be reflected in your photos.
Do whatever it takes to make yourself feel attractive … Tell yourself you’re hot or imagine that you’re a supermodel. “Pretty thoughts” definitely shine through in photos.
3. Go for natural looking makeup
Don’t pose with dark or sparkly makeup. Dark makeup looks harsh, while sparkly or iridescent makeup don’t reflect light well in photos.
Instead, keep your lips light and play up your eyes for a natural, feminine look. Use lots of powder since camera lights reflect shine.
4. Find your best side
Everybody has a good side and a bad side. Experiment with different facial angles until you find your best look. (Note: a 3/4 view of your face is more flattering than a straight on view.)
Two more tips: Stretch your neck out to avoid a double chin and tilt your chin down slightly to make your eyes look bigger.
5. Keep your arms away from your body
Arms are a trouble spot for many TG girls. Posing with your arms pressed against your body makes them look even bigger. Hold your arms away from your body for a slimming effect.
Give these tips a try and post your photos in the comments section below!
Love,

Lucille, I have been listening to your feminization hypnosis tapes every night since I got them about three weeks ago. I listen to all of them evey night.. They have made a big difference, I feel more feminine and love dressing more than ever, I swear my makeup technique has improved and I find myself walking in heels better than ever… thanks, I love them. He’re a recent photo

Hi,Kelly
Lucille answered by herself.But I think you have all the chances to be a beautiful and confident woman.
Here are a ouple of mine. I can see the difference that your tips would make although, sometimes, it is difficult to have your arms away from the body, unless there are more props in use in the photoshoot. I have actually bought a book, in order to give me more ideas – 500 Poses for Photographing Women , by Michelle Perkins.
Hi.
Thanks for your good advises. In this shot I decided to only have positive thoughts in my mind! I felt good. And I hope it shows..?
