Want to make your relationship official online or are just after a new updated picture of you both together? We know it can be tricky to take couple pictures that the two of you are happy with or come up with new ideas so you\u2019re not always doing the same go-to poses. All you need to do is carry on reading for our top tips for taking a good photo together along with some of our picture ideas.<\/p>\n
Maybe you\u2019ve figured out how you\u2019re both going to pose but need some last-minute support so that it all goes to plan and you don\u2019t spend ages trying to get it right. If so, here are three of our top tips for taking great couple pictures:<\/p>\n
Now it\u2019s pretty much common sense that it would be entirely unfair for you to frame the camera so that only one of you can be properly seen (unless you\u2019re doing this on purpose, of course). Next time you\u2019re taking a picture or selfie quickly double-check that the angle means that both of your gorgeous faces can be seen equally.<\/p>\n
As with any picture, filters and editing may be fun every now and then but you don\u2019t want every picture you have together to be overlayed with a filter. After all, you\u2019re more likely to compile an album with natural unfiltered pictures of the two of you, right?<\/p>\n
You might not be the most extroverted person but that doesn\u2019t matter when you\u2019ve got your partner by your side to give you that extra confidence boost. Even if you\u2019re in a crowded space no one is really going to judge you for taking a few nice pictures together.<\/p>\n
Let your picture do the talking and convey just how deeply you love one another with our cute picture ideas for couples. You could even pick out your favourite and include it on one of our\u00a0Valentine\u2019s Day photo cards<\/a>\u00a0for your special someone.<\/p>\n Do you both love exploring the world together? Snap all the memories you like next time you\u2019re both on a trip whether it\u2019s just for a day or a longer break. Think things like the typical hand picture where one of you is leading the way with a stunning location in the back or a quick snap of you both at the airport, on a boat, in the car (although not distracting the driver of course) or whatever else you\u2019re able to get up to.<\/p>\n First things first, you\u2019re going to need the right sort of lighting for this one. Once you\u2019ve hunted down the location \u2013 make sure to pick somewhere outside that won\u2019t be completely pitch black \u2013 it\u2019s time to capture your pic. To take the best silhouette pic, you\u2019ll need the sun to be low in the sky which is when it\u2019s either rising or setting then you just need to make sure you can create enough definition between you both and the background. Some poses for this type of shot might include standing side by side holding hands or a light peck on the lips.<\/p>\n Life\u2019s all about having fun and there\u2019s no one better to have a laugh with than your partner. If neither of you are big fans of PDA, you can still become #relationshipgoals thanks to our fun picture ideas for couples:<\/p>\n Photobooths are always a fun time, especially with your favourite person! Simply go and find your local photobooth, plan out your playful poses beforehand, squeeze inside and wait for the countdown. Not only do you get a lovely little print version of your photobooth snaps, but a lot of times you can download them on your phone or easily scan them onto your computer. It also saves you the job of trying to find the best lighting and background or fussing over angles. In fact, why not make it a thing and start going in all the photobooths you see together and building a lovely little collection of strips?<\/p>\n Either set your camera on a timer or record a video that you can take screenshots of later and just start dancing around together. Have a mini dance party at home or find a quiet spot outside. Don\u2019t worry about looking silly either, the bigger the movements the better it\u2019ll look on camera and the brighter you\u2019re facial expressions will be too.<\/p>\n Start a new festive tradition and snap a picture in front of a Christmas tree in the jolly month of December! Whether you\u2019re out and about and see a giant tree lit up with beautiful lights and decorations or prefer to stick with your own humble one at home, a picture of you both by a Christmas tree would look amazing on the front of one of our\u00a0Christmas photo cards<\/a>.<\/p>\n But first\u2026 let me take a selfie! A 21st-century photo trend, the best way to capture the moment is by quickly whipping out one of your phones and grabbing a selfie. Nowadays, phone cameras are about as high quality as you would ever need for basic photography so unless you\u2019ve not upgraded your phone in the last decade then these adorable couple selfie ideas are something you can easily do anytime, anywhere.<\/p>\n All dressed up for a night out? Don\u2019t let the time and effort you put into getting ready go to waste and pull your partner in front of a mirror for a selfie. Take as many as you like, there\u2019s nothing wrong with being fashionably late thanks to a mini photoshoot. Plus, a mirror selfie is ideal for showing off all your favourite outfits too.<\/p>\n On the same level of adorableness as forehead kisses, get your partner to give you a back hug whilst giving the camera a cheesy grin. Alternatively, if you want to make it extra charming you can add a little kiss on the cheek as well. A casual selfie pose that you can take anyway and really highlights how cute you are together!<\/p>\n Now you\u2019ve got all the ideas for taking lovely couple pictures together, you could even add it onto one of our\u00a0personalised photo cards<\/a>\u00a0for whatever upcoming event you\u2019re celebrating. And if you enjoyed reading this, we\u2019ve got plenty more inspiration that you can find over on the\u00a0thortful blog<\/a>\u00a0that will help you whatever the special occasion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Get out and explore together<\/h3>\n
