Picture this: blue skies, fresh air, crystalline waters—and you in your favorite bikini. After years in lockdown, it’s finally time for fun under the sun! Who better to enjoy this golden moment with more than your best girls? You'll definitely want to taking a million selfies to make up for lost time.

Need pose ideas? A quick scroll through influencer Ry Velasco's feed shows that she is  an absolute pro at group shots! Whether posing with her bud or the whole barkada, the blocking is always on point. Pull a page off their book and snap the cutest souvenirs from the best vacay ever.

Below are 5 peg-worthy swimsuit poses to cop with your friends, as seen on influencer Ry Velasco.

1. No photographer? No problem! Ry and her friends have this self-timer-proof shot for inspo. Position the camera on the ground and angle it slightly upward. Get on your knees, and squeeze in together on the frame to capture the sky, sand, and sea.

2. We love the contrast between Ry leaning back and Hazel leaning forward in this easy and effortless pose. This visual depth is further enhanced by their varying levels.

3. Here's a super flattering tip to cop: angle your body slightly to one side and put the weight on one leg. It will both elengate your gams, and accentuate your curves. This works best with even numbered groups as you can angle facing each other.

4. An upward-titled angle can be a bit tricky. It can cast an unflattering light or it can help lengthen your silhouette and make you look taller. Play around by shooting in various levels. A boat's staircase is an opportune location to find the perfect filiming height.

5. There's always something about candid looking shots. Take an option where you are interacting with each other and not looking at the camera. Have fun with it! Just have the designated photographer take continuous shots so you can find the perfect one (or five).
