I made a valentine of my cat this year! I only got two photos of her looking up! She would walk on the background, eat her treats and just sit. She is our family fur baby. She gives so much love and joy to us! I hope you had a fun valentines surrounded by your loves!
Tip #1 Turn your chin toward your shoulder
I love this pose because it looks good with everyone! Turn your body with your shoulder towards the camera. Then turn your chin towards your shoulder which gives a nice outline to your chin and cheeks.
Tip #2 Have your faces close together
My husband is 6’2” and I am 5’4” so for this pose he came down a bit so our faces could be closer together. It looks a little funny off camera, like a giraffe spreading his legs to get a drink of water! For the photo all you see is that we faced each other for a sweet cuddle.
Tip #3 You don’t have to look at the Camera!
Not looking at the camera instantly gives the photo a lifestyle feel. You can look at each other, look at your hands, or kiss. For this photo we faced each other and gave soft smiles, enjoying the others company!
Happy to share this wonderful family with you! The oldest was energetic and gave a perfect smile every time. The little girl was a bit shy and super sweet. The littlest was not sure of the whole thing but everyone else seemed happy about getting photos taken, so he went along with it! I love photographing little people, all their different stages and ages, I love it all!
