This time the girl needs to be the charmer for the ‘walk with me’ pose. For a selfie like this one, it’s important to have a good backdrop – a sunset (like in the picture above), seashore, or a picturesque cityscape.
The plus side of being a photographic PDA-obsessed couple is that you get to capture amazing moments of affection like in this one. Unkempt hair, crumpled bed sheet, nightshirts still on and flattering light that’s all you need to capture a moment like this one.
This is the best thing you can do on a lazy Sunday afternoon. You can ask a friend to capture this moment, or put your camera on self-timer mode and enjoy your privacy. Just make sure the light is complimenting and you have got enough pillows to make the bed look warm.

This is our favourite. Maybe you could take a bit of help from Photoshop or any other photo edit app and create the illusion of an upside-down room, you are eating her up or she is coming out of your hair. Giggles! We just love these.
By the river, by the sea at the top of the mountains where you witness an ethereal sunset or just on your terrace try the silhouette and see the effect. Our personal faves are the sunset positioned between a kiss or the heart created by the hands or a couple blending into each other.
