Picture this: You’re out with your bestie, your twinning OOTDs look flawless, and you’ve spotted a picturesque backdrop. You whip out your phone to snap a photo for your Instagram story, only to get into awkward positions with your BFF and argue about how you can look great together. Sounds familiar? We’ve been there, too!
Taking a double tap-worthy photo becomes a lot more difficult when you have to pose with someone, even if that someone is a long-time friend who will gladly take more than 50 photos with you just to score a single decent shot. That patience can only get you so far, so it also helps to come prepared with some pegs to speed up the process!
To help you get started, we’ve found some Instagram-worthy poses that you can copy from the most stylish celebrity BFFs of this generation.
Instagram Poses to Recreate with Your BFF
1. Link your arm with your friend’s and pull them closer to you for a sweet photo. You can even try a wide-angle shot if you manage to find a scenic location.
2. The candid laughing shot is a classic for a reason—it looks completely authentic despite being easy to recreate! Bonus points if you can use a film camera to mimic that vintage look.
3. Want to hop on the “point five” selfie trend? Switch your camera setting to the 0.5 lens and use your back camera to snap the photo. The ultra-wide fisheye effect is guaranteed to elevate your grid! Place a hand on your cheek to double the cuteness!
4. When in doubt, go for a mirror selfie. It’ll feel less uncomfortable because you won’t have to look at the camera directly, plus very minimal set-up is required.
5. For a playful photo, pretend like you’re going in for a kiss while facing your best friend. This is especially perfect for parties and nights out!
6. Flaunt your matching outfits by standing side by side and placing your arms around each other’s waists. Don’t forget to beam your brightest smiles!
7. If you and your friend are feeling extra pretty, look at the camera with your fiercest gaze. So chic!
8. Feel free to pose with your fur babies to make things less awkward. Of course, there’s also the obvious fact that everyone online is obsessed with seeing cute animals.
