Lolita poses

[Anonymous No.8294447]

How do you pose in lolita? Are there any poses that annoy you? Post good/bad pics. I need some pose inspo since I've been repeating the same ones in every pic.

Sorry for the pic for ants..
So I have a kinda big chin (not super huge, but I'm self conscious about it) and I want to cover it somehow. It's fine whenever I take selfies/etc because I can adjust the angle to make it look smaller, but I can't do that when people take pics of me. If I did the popular 'hand by face' pose but moved it towards the bottom of my chin to cover some of it, would that look ok? Or are there any other poses I can do to cover my chin?

This pose looks like it might help to slim down the silhouette.

Yes, I'm going through f.i.n.t staff coord photos because I think they pose well.

Pose with something. Sitting down on a nice chair, or bench and creating angles with your body.

Take an aerial photo to show details from a new perspective.

Try more candid poses, or don't look into the lens.

Show a different angle of your outfit.

Personally I'm really tired of people looking down in their photos. I don't know why it's a thing and I'm not even sure why it annoys me so much but it does. I'd rather the people looked literally anywhere but the floor.

What do you guys think about posed mirror pics? I always feel so awkward trying to pose for a selfie because it seems much more unnatural

I just realized she is wearing a skirt on top of a JSK...???

[Anonymous No.8295592]

My advice to you is to get your laptop out, turn on your web camera, back away and pose for some timed pics. Just experiment with different postures and poses until you find some that look good for you, so you have a backlog of moves to strike when it's picture time

[Anonymous No.8295594]

>>8294498
They do pose really well.

It's actually a salopette but that's pretty damn creative.

[Anonymous No.8295650]

>>8294525
she has big ears

[Anonymous No.8295653]

>>8295605
if anyone other than a slim, attractive asian was doing it, would it still be "creative"

This is a stupid argument, dressing to suit your face and figure is part of the game and different things look good on different people. So yes, a 40 year old 400lb woman with six chins would not look good in this outfit. What is your point?

[Anonymous No.8295938]

>>8295858
>missing the point

>different things look good on different people
but a skirt over a salopette looks unequivocally retarded
congrats on your shit taste and yellow fever

Can anyone remind me of who this is? She's like a pixie princess.

I've been thinking about upping my coordinate shot game recently. Normally I just take mirror pictures, but I've found that this has a magical way of turning even my favorite outfits into terrible, ill-proportioned messes.
Luckily I have a camera and tripod that I can use, but I'm curious - what sort of backdrops do people prefer? I was thinking of dedicating a little corner of my room to it, maybe decorating with some flower garlands and little knick-knacks I've collected to make the background interesting.
But would the repetition of this background become boring from picture to picture? Would I be better off seeking out different parts of my house to keep things interesting? I've considered taking pictures outside in interesting locations, but my city isn't home to the kindest people and I worry someone will just run by and snatch up my camera while I'm busy trying to pose.
> tl;dr Pre-decorated backgrounds - a good idea or a waste of time?

[Anonymous No.8297106]

>>8294613
Yeah seconding this, I would like to see some good ideas for poses for mirror shots

[Anonymous No.8297107]

>>8297061
Well, I think it's a good idea
Just make sure your bg is clean and isn't too cluttered or distracting, it's all about your coord after all. I think having nicely decorated bgs really adds to the pic and can really help flatter(?) your coord. Changing it up doesn't hurt either, it keeps it fresh and interesting!

>All in all I think per-decorated bgs are a good idea

DO NOT try this pose if you are short af. Trust me it will only highlight how your legs are barely the same length as your torso or make them look stubby and fat.

Tips for short people?

[Anonymous No.8297222]

If you want to look taller, make sure your photos are taken from a lower angle (if someone else is taking photo or using a tripod). So positioning it slightly below your waist and aiming up towards you. Also crossing one leg over in front of the other will elongate your legs like in these photos:

A notice to all ladies! If you are going to put your head down any, please bring in the bottom of your chin by putting the back of your tongue to the roof of your mouth. It lifts the part under your chin that connects to you neck and creates a slimmer look, so that when your head is down you don't get the possible double look.

[Anonymous No.8297237]

Sincerely,
Tip from a photographer pose assistant.

[Anonymous No.8297238]

>>8297234
Actually if you bring your tongue to the roof of your mouth it makes your chin look worse. You should actually be pulling your tongue to the lower back area of your mouth to get rid of it.

[Anonymous No.8297240]

>>8297234
Wow, that's truly amazing. Thank you so much. I felt like a frog rolling up my tounge like that, but it works.

[Anonymous No.8297243]

>>8297238
They said to put the back of the tounge not the top, silly. Which is what your saying also

[Anonymous No.8297247]

>>8297243
But they said to pull it to the roof of your mouth which, depending on how long the connective tendon is will actually push the muscle down more.

I misunderstood for a moment too and when I tried it out it made my chin look worse as well. But what you should actually be doing is kind of rolling up your tongue like >>8297240 said, or kind of folding it up and sucking it back so it's as small as possible? Kind of like when people do this, just folded over and pulled back as far as possible. (Sorry if any of you are grossed out by tongues!)

[Anonymous No.8297285]

I think it's a good idea. Keeping it fairly simple is probably the best way to go, unless you very much stick to one substyle. A nice small table with a few knick-knacks, a framed picture on the wall and maybe a vase of flowers that you change every so often would be nice. Enough to be interesting but not so much to be distracting. I wouldn't go for anything over the top unless, like I said, you stick to only one style but if you did something very Victorian would be great for classic (nice wallpaper and draperies) and a gothic corner would be gorgeous.

Having always a consistent nice, non-cluttered background is better than jumping around your house until you end up where you started again.
The one you posted is very silly to me because of the perfectly placed not so kawaii heater.
