Do's and don'ts: how to take a perfect nude photo
Good lighting, the right angle, and a sultry pose. It's not easy to shoot the perfect nude. How do you create the ultimate sexy picture and what should you definitely not do? LotteLust shares the do's and don'ts for a perfect nude photo.
Do’s:
Think about what kind of photo you want
Before you start photographing away, it's helpful to first think about which direction you want to take your naked shoot. Are you going for classy, suggestive photos or are you more in the mood for a session that drips with sex? If you have a final result in mind, it's also easier to make a good start.
What suits you?
Also not unimportant: what are you wearing (and taking off..!)? You probably have a favorite lingerie set lying around that would complete your nude photo, or maybe you're planning to go straight for the gold and leave the lingerie completely out. Nude photos don't have to show everything, so if you want to leave some things to the imagination, that's perfectly fine too. Say yes to mirror shots!.
Mirror selfies outdated? Uhm… no! We at LotteLust are actually big supporters of mirror selfies. With a good composition, you can get quite far, so try out different poses and angles and just click away.
Making and sending nudes is a lot of fun, but it's not without risk.
Don'ts:
Recognizability
Tattoos, piercings, a recognizable background… eliminate anything that could lead back to you from your photos. The best thing is to even leave your face out, unless you actually want to show it. And regarding tattoos: you can erase them for safety in Photoshop (better safe than sorry!).
Be careful with flash photos.
Although using flash can greatly improve your photos, that's not always the case, especially not with mirror shoots. The last thing you want is a photo that has become grainy or blurry due to the flash. So experiment with both options and see what works best for your nudes.

If you bless multiple people with your nude photos, it's always wise to remember exactly who received what. Tip: watermark your nudes with the name of the recipient. This way, you can always see who to go to if there’s any trouble later.
