For Girls Only! How to Take Cute Pics of Yourself (Selfie) with Cell Phone

Don't say I'm crazy, but I take a pic of myself and send it to my bf once in a while. We call this kind of photo "sha-me" in Japan.

Not long ago, I saw on TV how to take cute pics of yourself with your cell phone and found out it really works, so I will let you know!!!

1. use the in-camera
2. use the natural light
3. use cloudy mode
4. cock down the angle of the camera (look up)
5. walk around the room and find a place where the light is perfect on you
6. adjust exposure if needed (it hides your pores and has a whitening effect)
7. take your photo when you are ready!

Just try! It's fun and makes your loved one happy :D

Anyway, Good Design Expo is held from today till Sunday. It is one of the biggest design events in Asia! Wanna go there if I have time this evening.

On Saturday, my bf and I gonna attend my friend's wedding after party at the beach. Should be filled with joy and happiness! I can't wait!!!

See you next week!

    Hey friend, There are many nice tips of cute pics take with cell phone. This is really subjective question. These Japanese cell phones are really fantastic. Lighting is the big part of a successful photographer. Yo can try different angels and poses and different expressions and you can always practice infront of the mirror.

    Hi Donna,

    Yep! Cell phones in Japan are fantastic, but I always carry my compact digital camera with me since it is the best ;)

    I took your advice, turns out it doesn't work out so well when you're a guy.

    Every time I was sent a cute pic I responded with one as an experiment...serves them right to sending me cute pics, taste my wrath!
