BACKDROP

Find an aesthetically pleasing backdrop, whether its in your bedroom, a store, a pretty outdoor location, or even a restaurant bathroom! Don’t ruin a perfect mirror selfie with a messy backdrop! Keep it minimal and clean, and remember if you’re doing a bedroom selfie to always make your bed!

PROPS

Props are always a necessity but can certainly make your selfie a bit more interesting. Try adding in a cool piece of furniture or plants to add to your aesthetic/color scheme. Throwing in a clothing rack or artwork behind you can show off your exceptional taste in decor while also showing off your style.

POSING AND GETTING COMFORTABLE

Remember, don't just take 1 or 2 selfies. Take a TON photos in all different poses or while holding your phone at different heights and angles so you have plenty of options and at least one that you love. The most important thing is that you are comfortable with yourself in the picture. Take photos when you’re rockin’ your fave outfit or when you slayed your makeup that day. When you feel happy, it will seamlessly flow into an amazing pic.
