Losing weight can be challenging and it is a big accomplishment for many. Some people even like to document their weight loss process through journaling, photographs, or videos. Before and after photos are visual evidence of how much you’ve improved in terms of losing weight and becoming healthier. It is encouraging to see how your body is looking better and you will be more motivated to lose even more weight. You must ensure that the images you take are high quality and showcase your weight loss journey properly.
With That in Mind, We are Going to Take a Look at Some Tips for Taking Good Before and After Weight-Loss Photos:
Wear The Same Clothes- decide what clothes you will wear for every picture. It’s easy to notice slight changes if you wear the same clothes. Regardless of your current weight, choose clothes that accentuate your shape. It will look impressive if your start from plus size clothes that looks slightly tight and it becomes looser as you lose weight.
Show Some Skin- even if you are not confident about wearing a swimsuit or a bra and underwear in your photos, you should at least show some skin. It’s okay to show that your belly is hanging out if your goals include having a toned abdomen.
Choose A Neutral Background- remember that the main subject is your body and avoid choosing a cluttered background. An empty wall or white fence is a good choice for your background. Remove furniture or wall decorations that could be distracting.
Be Consistent- make a regular schedule for photo-taking sessions, such as bi-weekly or monthly. Always take your photos at the same time or in the same location. This strategy also helps in ensuring that lighting will be consistent. It is easier to see any small improvement if you keep things consistent.
Use A Self-Timer- instead of asking people to take your picture, you will get consistent results with the self-timer feature of your camera. Decide where to put the camera, so its distance and height remain the same in each picture. You can invest in a tripod or put the camera on a table.
Keep Track Of Weight Loss Progress- each time you take a photo, write down your latest weight. Include this information with each photo to better inspire others who also have the same weight loss goals. Try to look natural, avoid clenching your muscles or sucking in your belly.
