How to Look Good in Photos: The Secret that Nobody Tells You
Let’s be real — how many times have you stood in front of a camera and thought, “Dear god I hope I actually look good!”
We’ve all been traumatized by terrible photos of ourselves. As a boudoir photographer who teaches people how to look good in photos, I know better than most just how much it can sting to see an absolutely terrible photo of yourself.
So most of us instinctively reach for the obvious fixes: flawless makeup, the perfect outfit, that good angle we saw a hot person do once! But what if I told you…
The biggest mistake most people make before a photoshoot?
Trying to change who they are to fit into someone else’s idea of beauty — instead of learning how to amplify the most confident, radiant version of who they already are!
Because stunning photos don’t start with the camera. They start with you.
It’s not about eyeliner, lighting, or even retouching — although yes, we adore those too. It’s about how you feel in your body. How ready you are to stop hiding. And how deeply you trust yourself to be seen.
At Earthly Venus, our mission is to help you look incredible on camera — but more importantly, to feel absolutely gorgeous in your own skin.
Like, “I could take over the world” kind of stunning. Because that power? It’s already yours.
So let’s flip the script.
Instead of asking how to look good in photos…
Ask yourself this: “What about myself am I excited to highlight in my photos?”
How can you show up as the most confident, powerful version of yourself?
Once we’ve decided how we want to see you, the camera has no choice but to capture your glow.
What’s your biggest challenge when it comes to feeling camera-ready?
