In the age of quick penis pics, full-boob flashes, and mindless mirror selfies—not to mention “leaked” celebrity nudes—it’s hardly surprising that art of the nude photo was somewhat derailed.
And yet, knowing how to take quality nudes can be a beautiful and very erotic way to connect with a partner, lover, or yourself. Plus, nude selfies are a great form of foreplay and can also really spice up a long distance relation. While it’s highly unlikely that the recipient(s) of your nude/erotic/graphic photos will ever complain (of course not), there are plenty of seductive poses you can explore to ramp up the seductive intrigue factor a bit if you want. And while it may seem unnatural to some to pose in a “seductive” or “sexy” way, sometimes it just takes a little trial and error to find your true groove, baby.
Let’s explore a little, shall we? The next time your sexting session turns into a photo exchange on the fly, or if you just want to add something to that folder of sexy snaps you have going on (whether they’re meant for someone else’s eyes or not), consider striking one or all of the following poses.
1. Between the sheets
If you love sending sexy photos but aren’t entirely convinced about getting naked, you’re not alone. You heard it here first: naked doesn’t necessarily mean completely naked. Consider using a sheet to draw more attention to the parts of your skin that are too exposed. are naked: your arms, back or torso, only as your partner sees them when they wake up. What better, more intimate way to stimulate your lover’s naughty imagination? Alternatively, wear lingeriea favorite costume or whatever makes you feel sexy, that’s where it counts. Above all, self-confidence is the sexiest thing you can wear.
2. Breast is best
In general, with nudes, you’ll want to highlight your favorite features. There are a multitude of perfect angles for every part of your curvy body, and your chest is no exception. Try rolling your shoulders back to improve your posture. After all, sitting or standing tends to accentuate the breasts in a very flattering way. Tip: Instead of just making your chest stand out, work from your shoulders up for a more natural pose.
3. Midriffin’
If it’s your torso you want to highlight, lie down with one hand behind your head and maybe one leg raised at the knee, and just stretch, baby. This approach is super casual and sexy, like you’re walking around your apartment in your panties and deciding to capture the moment. You can also try draping your arm over your stomach to draw attention to your chest, waist, and hips.
4. Booty, to start
Butt photos are popular for a reason. Whether you’re lying down or standing, a surefire way to show off your round butt is to cross your legs. When you do this, the natural curve of your body deepens the natural angle in your lower back. You can also lie on your stomach and take the photo with your face in view (or not) while lifting your hips slightly to get an over-the-shoulder shot of your beautiful butt.
5. Return to the world
A photo of your figure from behind is always a sexy look. It allows you to be enigmatic and seductive while remaining subtle. This is ideal if you don’t like to be too exposed. You can up the ante here by coyly looking over your shoulder and placing your hands on your triceps.
6. Legs for days
While lying on your stomach or standing, cross one leg over the other to show off their shapely curves. Sexy heels are optional. If you’re lying down and prefer to go barefoot, you can point your toes for a similar effect. Alternatively, you can go the classic glam route and lie on your side, lifting your upper body with one arm and letting one knee drape sexily over your other leg. There’s really no better way to show off your hips and legs at the same time, goddess.
7. Mirror, mirror on the wall
Whether you like it or not, the sexy mirror selfie is one of the most popular choices of all because it is extremely versatile. You can show as much or as little as you want, and if you want to put one front show, you can do that too. Consider a profile shot, but crouching down, you know, to accentuate your waist, hips, and butt. You can also try leaning in for a more taboo view. Really, the mirror is your, uh, oyster.
8. Bed of roses
AKA the lying down body shot, this one is great because you can spread your hair sexily on your pillow while you take a few pictures holding your phone above you, showing off your entire body. Of course, if you prefer, you can also just take a picture of the top half of your body… or the bottom half… or just your face and cleavage.
9. Tease to please
Teasing poses are great if you’re feeling a little self-conscious. And they’re also super sexy. In this context, teasing means choosing which parts of your body you want to reveal and which ones you want to hide. For example, you could take a picture of the top of a pair of lace panties and your belly button. Or Your legs in a pair of knee high socks or ripped stockings. Or your nipples sticking out through a thin (and wet?) white t-shirt. Or your feet in sexy heels. Or your face peeking out from between your ankles. Phew. Feel free to get wildly creative. It’s all you.
10. Admit it or not
Just like with make a sex tapeIt is prudent to avoid sending photos that include both your face and body. If you choose to show your face, make sure you trust the person receiving it and always make sure your photos are password protected. If your face East In the photo, a tip: avoid the duckface trend. Just be yourself. Need more tips? Try a sexy smile instead, or smile with your eyes and part your lips slightly, in a playful way. To spice things up even more, pant a little while taking the photo. Your partner/lover will also pant (and maybe sweat) when they lay eyes on you.
Bonus Tips
– Lighting is important. For starters, I don’t mean poor quality fluorescent lighting. While standing in front of a window can produce a nice glow, direct, very bright sunlight can be a bit harsh. If you can get a good photo in low light, a warm light or candle is the way to go. always flattering.
– You’ll have to choose your environment wisely. Taking pictures of yourself in front of your sheer curtains is probably a lot sexier than in front of your old, disgusting fridge. Be careful what frames your sexy side, always.
– If you’re tired of using your phone’s timer and/or wielding a selfie stick, use the camera app on your laptop. This opens all kinds of other posescaptured from a further distance. Or, you might even consider hiring a pro boudoir photographer.
Bottom line: Some of the best nude photos are those that capture those natural, perfectly imperfect (and therefore sexy) moments. Perhaps the best part about taking nude photos is that all you really need is yourself. It’s all about Youstrike a pose and own it.
