"Ang liit mo pala in person?"
"Abot ka ba ng 5 feet?"
Those reactions are understated since Im really short. And people I meet for the first time always wonder why I look a little taller in photos. (I'm 5'1) It's all in the pose and angle, dude!
Sharing you some tips and tricks in this blog post. Read on!
Tip#1: Cross your feet and point your toes like a ballerina. It creates longer legs.
Tip#2: Butt out, torso up! Forget about the bust. I dont have one. Charot! But seriously, the secret of a graceful body is posture. Stretching up your body like your torso can make you appear taller and confident at the same time.
Tip#3: The one taking your photos should be on a lower level. Either he/she's sitting while taking your photos or just place the camera lower than his/her eye level. Esp when you take photos using an iPhone or Android phones, anything from the bottom and upper part of your photos will stretch. I'm sure you noticed this one already.
Tip #4: Show them your neck. The more longer, the more you'll look tall.
Tip #5: Accentuate your most favorite part of your body and avoid loose clothes. Anything baggy will make you look shorter.
Tip #6: Inhale and hold your breath. Exhale when the camera shutter did its duty already.
Tip #7: Tiptoe :) My favorite hack when posing.
Tip #8: When you're included in group photos, keep in mind that the person closer to the camera will appear taller than the one farther from the camera. You know what to do. But beware, it can also make you appear heavier.
Tip #9: Apply everything and voila! You'll be taller in photos. *wink wink* Just don't forget to also know your angles and examine your body proportions.
So there! I love sharing tips whenever I have talks/seminars but I'd love to share it with you, one-on-one too! If you have any questions, PM me or drop a comment.
