Handy Props That Help Take Flattering Photos At Home

 Infinite is creativity. Always keep it in mind: you can do more than you can imagine. Let’s make it simple. As long as you have the handy props and grasp the emotional expression of the individual, you can also take fantastic photos.

1. Glass bottles

Glassware forms a convex lens after it is filled with water. Hence, we can make use of the converging effect it has on light rays to get some ingenious photos.

When shooting, the setup should be as simple and clean as possible with sufficient light. The light source will be better cast on the object and its details better highlighted.

2.All kinds of mirrors

People tend to take a selfie in the bathroom or fitting room. An irregular-shaped mirror can better capture the emotion of your face. The contour of the face disappears at the edge of the irregular mirror while remaining a mysterious aura.

 A leaf-shaped mirror with a gold frame may help to present an elegant touch to your portrait.

3. Desk lamp and floor lamp


When shooting in a dim environment, small night lights and floor lamps are also perfect props for creating a warm flair.

Lights in a warm tone make a soft and beautiful silhouette.

Find an appropriate position and turn off the light tubes. The good news is that one can get flattering photos without wearing makeup. It will be easier for the photographer with less digital retouching. Shooting a profile is recommended.

4. Beautiful chairs


Chair, one of the most common and best-used photo props, is popular among Instagram celebrities. An easy way to pose sitting down is to cross one leg over the other. A fabulous chair is also pivotal.

When you are tiptoeing, you flex your legs so that it looks leaner and elongates your body. When your place is narrow, you can have medium shots.

Rest a hand under your chin with your fingers spaced out. Do not rest your head on your hand but hold it gently.

5. Elegant sofa

Besides the chair, a sofa in the living room is also a good prop. A solid color sofa cover is the first choice. It might be a comfortable way to slouch, but it's not flattering.



Hold something in your hand. A magazine or a cup of coffee keeps your hand busy. You can throw both hands on a mug, and take a little sip.

Sit like a princess. A dress with a big skirt is the key. Lean against the sofa and cross your legs.

If the sofa is spacious enough, you can sit on a small corner, such as the cushion or the arm of the sofa.

Coffee tables and media consoles are alternatives to staging photos. When sitting on a table or a media unit, your upper and the lower body line outlines a triangle, giving a little bit more elongated legs.



7. Smooth rugs


Sit up straight on a rug. Sofas are often coupled with rugs.

Sit on the rug in front of a sofa with your legs parallel to each other and hand on the sofa. When shooting at a low angle, it will also make you look taller and leaner.
