  • Did you even exist that day if you didn't take an #ootd for your Instagram?? Hahaha on a serious note though, taking photos by yourself isn't an easy task. Taking a FIRE #ootd photo to show off, not just your outfit style, but your photo style and overall aesthetics are even more challenging. So let me walk you through how to do all of the above in this simple follow-along video!

    I didn't see the importance of OOTD selfies till now ! Selfaceptance, gaining confidence in front of the camera, practicing poses, show off your existence and having fun? It has a lot of benefits!!😅 Love your videos, thanks for your hard work! I wil try all this poses today! 😅

    4:00 The Google Pixel or Google Photos in general allows you to export a specific frame directly out of the video so you dont lose quality. Also it is not saved in your screenshots folder but with the other photos as you'd expect it. It even recomments you specific frames 👌 I think this is much more elegant than screenshoting your photos out of the video! 👍

    One thing that I've learned to utilize on my phone that goes with the first method (I have Android, this is probably doable on iPhone as well) is to just say something like, "Hey Google, take a selfie". This prevents you from having to get up from your spot and to run/readjust when you click the shutter button. Great video and tips as well!

    • @lyzettemaguigad2828
      @lyzettemaguigad2828 2 роки тому +2

      With my android, i can say “cheese” or”smile!” And my phone captures a picture. I put my phone on volume and turn on shutter sound so i know that a picture was taken. This works with front and rear camera. On the front camera i can also hold up my hand and a picture will be taken a few seconds after.

    Been watching a lot of you videos here and on Insta recently (just discovered you). This, taking a video selfie, plus the flowing through poses helped me soooooo much!
    I usually just smile goofily (that smile is beyond my control and just turns up the moment a lens is pointed my way) and stand there stiffly, hoping for the best. After a 3 minute shoot I‘m just going through the zillion screenshots - and any one of the is light years better than those stiff awkward pics!!! Love! Thank you! ❤🎉

    Once again thank you so much. And soon I will change my UA-cam profile of the result of the picture I shot.

    One more method i came across was getting a remote bluetooth shutter. costs barely a dollar or two and you get the control over when the photo will be taken. the only downside would be that the shutter will be in your hand in the pic , which isnt much a problem cause its just a size of a coin.

    be more intentional about why you’re capturing that photo > “oh let me see what I can get from this”

    @gandalf3453 Рік тому +3

    I know this was awhile ago, but the BEST method I’ve found is setting up voice control. You can set it up so that when you say the key word you set, you can have your phone take as many photos as you want. Best part is that you don’t have to get up and press a button, you use your voice. I personally say “shoot” and it’ll take 5 pictures in a half second delay between each one. Again you can make this take as many photos as you want. There’s some videos about it. Just look up how to use voice control to take selfies.

    Hi David . Maria is in the house .
    I like the idea of this video , I mean it works for me because when I’m out usually I take my photos on my own , and yeah with a timer . I have a honor8x phone so you can take the picture just showing the hand 🤚 , so it easy for me to don’t lose my vibe when I’m taking “selfies “. I mean when you live by your own in a big city and want cool pictures , you have to be creative.
    I’m gonna visit the MET for the first time next week , I’m gonna try to use some of your ideas from this video . I will let you know how it works for me , I’m creative and not that shy , but crowded places ....it’s complicated for me . 😂🙂
    One last question: What happend in your back ? It’s that a pain relief patch ? 👀
    All the best 🌈✌️.
