  • Ensure that your makeup is perfect

This means that the foundation should match the skin tone exactly. A little too light and the effect in photos is bound to be unflattering.

  • Study yourself in the mirror/or take a look at your old photos

Take a look at some of your favourite photos of yourself (or try posing in front of the mirror). This can help you emulate your best poses, or smile or hold your chin in a particular manner that makes you look flawless.

  • Get a good night’s sleep

The eyes are the windows to your soul. Ask your stylist to get creative with the eye liner/ kajal. Express your emotions through your eyes. The best pictures have eyes that speak to the viewer.

  •  Tilt your neck sideways, just a little

You are not getting a passport photo taken. So create an angle for the photographer. Chin up and chin down can also help in creating a noticeable difference.

  •  If you are getting profile shots done, hold something in your hand/s

A flower/ a candle/ a coffee mug/ a pen/ a newspaper/ a pair of spectacles/ an ear ring… anything that is near you/ available to you. Empty hands can kill a good picture.

  • Finally-Be confident!

You are no less beautiful than Madhubala/ Marilyn Monroe/ the fantasy woman of your groom-to-be. It’s all in the mind. So think you are that iconic woman and pose with confidence. Every picture will be a winner straight away!
