How to take better selfies

I taught a selfie class on Tuesday (replay is in the member site if you missed it!) But I wanted to share a couple lessons that we came away with because there's no denying it - people buy from people and showing your face on social media is a big part of that.

A few things that might make posting selfies easier:

1 ➜ You do you
Wou don't have to follow the crowd or do what's popular if it doesn't feel authentic. Your home/office background is perfect as is. Less pressure to change things or create a set takes more time and makes it an annoying task.

2 ➜ Keep it simple
If putting on makeup or getting dressed complicates things, then selfie as you are. If I can show up makeup less, with crazy hair, in my pjs, SO CAN YOU! A hot mess selfie is better than no selfie at all.

3 ➜ Lighting make a massive difference in photo quality
With good light I can take all my photos on my iPhone X with the front facing camera. But if the light isn’t so good, editing will be your best friend. (swipe for a before + after)

It does take time, but after a while you’ll have a camera roll full of photos and your selfie game will take 2 minutes.

Are selfies the worst part of being the face of your business??
