More unsolicited beauty advice from my sweet sis, Bosslyn.
“Oh. My. G-d. I just spent an embarrassing amount of time looking at random people’s random pictures on photobucket (shut up) and I have come to the conclusion that the average woman does not know how to pose for a photo. So I have taken it upon myself, in my capacity as a looking great in photos expert, to tell you what you need to do to ensure that you do not look like a horse/pig/baboon photos.
First things first. Your arms? They look gross. Pull them away from your body in a discreet manner. You can do this by placing your hand lightly on your hip (your arms should form a crescent on each side) with your fingers pointing downwards. BUT forgodsakes DO NOT grasp your hip with your hand while jutting your hip out super far, that pose always makes you look like a deranged fifth grader at the sparkle town rodeo.
Second. With your hands forming the crescent, lean your torso back so that your hips are slightly forward of your chest.  Your stomach muscles will tighten if you are doing this correctly. Then place one foot slightly in front of the other in a criss cross pattern that causes the heel of one foot to touch the toes of the other. Doing all of this together will create the illusion of a longer slimmer torso. Who doesnt want that?
Third, look directly at the camera with your chin pointing down ever so slightly. YOU SHOULD NEVER BE PHOTOGRAPHED LOOKING UP! When the camera takes a picture from underneath your chin (which is what happens when the camera is low or you tilt your head up) you look about 100 x fatter of face. I dont care if G-d himself is descending from heaven at the exact moment you are being photographed. KEEP YOUR DAMN HEAD DOWN! Obviously do not tilt your chin far enough that it doubles, that is never cute.
Finally please PLEASE Stop making that weird kissy face (Bitch, please. This is not glamour shots.) it looks unnatural and desperate. Instead practice and use a relaxed happy smile, with your eyes crinkling just a little bit. The image that you want to convey is contentedness, not overt sexuality (unless, of course, you want to look like a desperate hussy)
Now go look hot, bitches!”
