How do you look thinner in pictures?

Im wanting to have a family picture done soon. My husband is a little smaller than me, and we have a 2yr old son. Any idea on how I can look thinner in the picture without completely hiding myself?

Answer #1

Easy, although the camera does add pounds:

Wear simple dark clothing. If there is a pattern is should be with vertical lines, but plain is best.

And when you pose, never turn your whole body to the camera. Turn the one shoulder to the camera, so that if the camera is at 12 o’clock, most of your body is facing about 2 o’clock.

And stand straight!

Often a three-quarter photo (stop at about mid-thigh) is more flattering than full-length. Good luck!
