Whether you're late night sexting or keeping some thirst traps in your back pocket for later, there's an art to taking a nude selfie.
If you're a newbie dipping your toes into the world of nudes or someone who's had a go before, we've 8 tips to make your nudes selfies pro-level.
1. Get into your vibe
Don’t jump in cold. Instead set aside some time for yourself to get into the groove and swing of it.
List out things that you LOVE about your body and show them off!
2. Set the scene aka tidy up
There’s nothing worse than taking the BEST PIC EVER and then realising your dirty washing is in the background (unless that’s their kind of thing).
Have a quick sweep of the room and thank us later.
3. Find your light
Put your camera in front of you and swing round in a circle. When the lighting is even across your face, bingo! That’s where to take the pic.
Try shooting at golden hour (just after sunrise or just before sunset) for that perfect golden look.
Or if you’re looking for a moody pic, backlighting can also be an option.
4. Get into portrait mode
And have a fiddle with the settings.
Flip over to studio light if you’re indoors and play with the amount of exposure.
Never tried out the different settings before? Now is your time to experiment.
5. Shoot from an angle
Try shooting from above to get an intimate silhouette of your body.
Or if you’re into domination, try from below to accentuate your strength.
Take a few different angles to try framing a variety of parts of your body. See what works.
6. Mirror mirror on the wall
You give one of the best nude selfies of all.
They’re great for a booty picture, or if you’re feeling submissive, try kneeling in front of the mirror and positioning the camera at eye level.
Mirrors are great for chopping and changing angles in a heartbeat too.
7. Don’t get in your own way
Overthinking it will drive you crazy.
Have fun, keep it light, and don’t fixate on the things you don’t like about it.
Remember, this is meant to be fun and empowering.
8. Store those babies safely
Don’t have the fear whenever you give your phone to your someone lest they swipe too far.
Put the banging pics into a private folder with passwords.
