For those who want a list of all the tips GENERAL TIPS 1. Stand up straight 2. Keep limbs away from your body (arms away from torso, legs separate) 3. Create angles with your body and be loose and comfortable 4. Take the photo from a lower angle (hip height) FACIAL EXPRESSIONS 5. Point head closer to the camera and look down (to avoid double chin) 6. Squint your eyes a little (test it out) 7. Be careful with the duckface (instead: smirk) 8. Smirking: just think “I’m happy” instead of looking evil 9. Don’t smile too wide, smile kindly POSES 10. 7:27 (weight in back foot with other leg bent and leaning back a little) 11. Dainty hands (play with your nails) 12. Legs further apart and toes pointed at an angle inward 13. Hold a bag to occupy your hands and go complete the look 14. Create a Z shape (10:45) 15. Play with your hair One extra tip I have: when positioning your hands, pretend like the area your touching is in pain (basically touch the area softly and lightly). This will make your hand positioning look much more dainty and cute
Everytime I ask someone to take a picture of me, I always feel awkward because I mostly don't know how to pose. I'm glad to hear these tricks, I'll definitely try them out. Thank you Bethany ❤
The person taking should also make you feel comfortable or not awkward. They need to talk to you. Tell you ideas om what to do. You'll be at ease. Posing will come naturally if you two indulge rather than you standing there not knowing whether they took the pic or not... Etc.... Point is yiu two need to talk to avoid that awkwardness of someone really concentrating on you
This is the most realistic, helpful posing video I've ever watched. As a shorter girl it's difficult not to like squashed in pictures; your tips help so much!
The limbs away from body tip is gold. Sometimes super candid is great for me because I look like a regular happy person and not totally awkward. Some of my favourite photos are when I had no idea someone was taking the photo until the last minute (like the one in my profile pic) . Another good tip for awkward me is to take them when I'm with my nieces. I always look happier and more carefree. These regular photo tips though are awesome. Thank you so much. I think I'll have to take my photo regularly and try to look more natural. I normally look weird and awkward unless the photo is candid.
I like the idea of taking a picture of yourself everyday, just to figure out what you look like, how to good yourself and what colors look good on you. I generally don't look at myself and this would be a great way for me to start practicing looking at myself.
I think this is one of the most helpful posing videos I've seen. I feel like posing for pictures make me look too posed but your tips/poses look so natural! Have a great vacation!
Bethany, this was absolutely fascinating! 😃 Partly because I’m an artist, partly because I’m a lady who wants to look good in photos 😉, I found both your tips on body posing and facial posing so intriguing! You’ve given me lots to practice! 👌
Shelly Nd where is the string attached? Head or shoulders? I grew tall to fast so I could never adjust my posture I walk around like I have no back bones
Thank you Bethany for these amazing tips for petite girls like me! I have always struggled with how to pose in photos. I am the worst at it. This is honestly the best tips I have seen!!!
As a photographer I would like to give a tip to sometimes have ur finger show when u up then i ur hip in front or wherever it is have ur fingers naturally apart. You don’t always have to do this as it depends on the pose be it does help with more angles and can look more a legacy.
You have the sweetest voice I've ever heard, we can literally hear you smile while you're talking. 😊 And you look a lot like a girl from university I used to have a crush on, it's unsettling!
I love love love love this video!! Can’t explain how amazed i am by the results of me trying your technique in my pictures!!! Where have you been before! But better late than never
I always have to focus on keeping my eyes wide open actually, because I noticed that when I smile, I naturally tend to close my eyes halfway, which looks cute in real life (i've been told...) but extremely awkward in photos. But really awesome tips. they help a lot.
I had fun watching this! I'm glad that I'm doing some of the poses you showed which means I'm on the right track into posing haha. And I'm 5"2', so I can relate with height problems but here you are giving tips on how to look taller! Thanks Bethany. :D enjoy your vacay!
your personality/ demeanour is just great. The video was so helpful and you just seem like the sweetest lady / super genuine through the camera. great video !
great video! you were making me laugh while talking about the "squinting" - I'm a huge fan of America's Next Top Model and Tyra Banks is always talking about "smizing"! You nailed it! :)
Truth! Taking an outfit photo every day was the biggest help when I started revamping my style. You become used to how you look in photos as well as different clothes which can help you stay a bit more objective when deciding whether or not to keep a new piece of clothing.
I've seen so many videos on how to pose and this is by far the most helpful one, thank you! Just followed your IG too, your posing and outfits are amazing
I love your channel so much! Such great quality content and very informative as well. PS your voice is very soothing and relaxing too 🤗 You definitely deserve more subscribers! ❤️

After the cat walked in I couldn’t concentrate anymore, lovely 💕

First: be naturally beautiful
Then: Be photogenic
Jonna Nissen first: have some self esteem🙄

Somehow, that is truly a paradox. ❤
I agreed with u

I personally prefer the crazy, unrestrained, full-joy smile.

Can you discuss group photos! Those are the worst for me!

They all suck for me 😩

I love your huge smile! It looks very genuine and inviting :) I’m voting the left side for the smile comparison

Yes, you are lovely and pretty.
I agree!! Loved all the tips but her wide smile was so cute 😁

Malina lucky u 👍 having 5'6.
My height is same and I have the same problem....so in a full body pic it really looks awkward

The modeling company doesn’t know what they’re missing. You are so gorgeous 😍. I know how you feel, I am 4’9 🤦🏻♀️

I like it when u say u like to imagine tht there's a "string thts pulling you up" to have a good posture. That works for me!
Shelly Nd where is the string attached? Head or shoulders? I grew tall to fast so I could never adjust my posture I walk around like I have no back bones
You can tell your just being yourself and that's so refreshing. Great job!
Thank you Bethany for these amazing tips for petite girls like me! I have always struggled with how to pose in photos. I am the worst at it. This is honestly the best tips I have seen!!!
That giggles throughout the video is SO CUTE! Learnt many tips, thanks!
Dude I look evil in every photo, no matter how I smile 😂
Katie McGhinnis sameee 😩😩😩 i dont know how to smile 😭
Lol, I honestly don't think you ever take a bad photo. You're one of the stunning people! 😊
Your voice is so soothing

Thanks Vanessa!
Finally!! I found a vlog like yours.. really enjoy it!
Yay, finally someone my height and size that I can relate to. Great tips. I'll have to coach my 6'5 husband to take my pic correctly.
This is great... Love Bethany. The only thing I'd say is s
mile the way the way that is true to yourself even if it's big and teethy!
You're so chill and relax. I wanna be friends with you :) Also it is so refreshing to watch something that does not have distracting background music.
You have the sweetest voice I've ever heard, we can literally hear you smile while you're talking. 😊 And you look a lot like a girl from university I used to have a crush on, it's unsettling!
I'm also 5 foot one and i love how i can actually use this!!!!

Keep it up girly. Good perspective ..
Im 4 "11 so ugh getting the right outfits is hard!
Your videos are such a breath of fresh air.
"if you want to look taller..." sis i'm already a 5'10 giraffe 😒

Lucky 👍. At 5'1, I'd love a few inches of your height.
Aleena Ali haha well when i was in school i was bullied a lot for it but now i'm getting into modeling so...guess it depends
It’s so annoying being tall TT u can’t get away with anything in class bc teachers immediately look at me first. I’m eleven and 5’6”
holy shit do you have an ig?
I feel you ! But whatever, live with that, you’re beautiful anyway !!
I love your videos and you get right to the point! I turn off long introductions!!

Hey Bethany, this is the most amazing video on posing i have seen. You are so relatable! Good work!

So helpful because I'm 5'1 as well! You totally look like Derek's sister Amelia from Grey's anatomy
İ was thinking the same thing! İts uncanny
oh my gosh yes
You mean 151 cm ??
Same thoughts! She really reminds me of Amelia.
Yeah !!
Your personality is so lovely like something so cute and natural
5'1"?????? I THOUGHT YOU WE'RE 5'8"!!!!!
hehe!
Being an Asian, I find it rare to see white people like you with that stature only. Why such height problem haha
Dearly Bethany from where did u buy necklace
I'm 5'4 1/2 and I think this video was so useful!
ua-cam.com/video/YFa7nR7v_i8/v-deo.html :)
I am a short girl too and I never feel comfortable but now I know that they are people like me. I would look amazing in photos. Thanks
0:1 got me like " WOAH YOUUUU. ARE SOOOOO. BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLLL "
6:32 i like that big, smiley look! it makes anyone look like a super sweet, genuine person.
Your voice is lovely, so calming 😊
The cat at the back is the cutest distraction ever!! 😂🐱
I just realized that you don't have to be a 6 ft tall to be a model or to look taller in pictures. thank you for sharing, this will help a lot! 😊💟
So glad it was helpful, Lester Ann
Great video highlighting the basics of posing.
Yes!!!! This was such a good video you always look amazing in your Instagram pics Bethany!
Thanks Ariel! You're the best🤗
Loved the wedges, also the one you have in white
