Check out the best bridal makeup photos:

1. Let your eyes do the talking

Look straight into the camera and try to convey your emotions with your eyes. Our eyes speak a different language altogether. There are many ways in which you can play with your eyes to give a perfect shot. Some of them are looking down( by doing so the entire focus will be on your impeccable eye makeup, long lashes, shiny eyeshadow and them brows), gaze at a distant object(side profile perhaps, something like a fake candid), or look straight into the camera(let your eyes do the talking quite literally.

What we like about this picture is the way the photographer has captured the beautiful eye makeup of the bride. No matter how hard we strive, we are unable to take our eyes off of hers! 

You can try this pose too. Set your gaze down and flaunt your beautiful eye makeup to get a perfect shot. By striking a pose such as this one, the focal element will be your eyes and if looks could kill, then this would be it and this would be the way of doing so!

2. Those luscious lips

You can use any of your facial features to enhance the final shots. Not just eyes or hair, you can also use lips as a prop to amplify the final captures. You must practice your smile poses much in advance to perfect that perfect shot. Make it a habit to practice a good smile in front of the mirror. Smile at the mirror without opening your mouth. Just give a little curve to your lips and see your eyes twinkling. Notice the pose and watch that smile, as happy girls are the prettiest.

Now, part your lips and see yourself in the mirror. Is this the smile that you would want to see in your wedding photographs forever? If yes, congratulations! You have mastered the pose. But, if not, keep practising until your smile gets better and your picture becomes perfect in every sense of the word.

Refrain from pouting too much in your wedding photographs. If you want to give a happy laugh, say “haa” loudly while posing.  Another thing that you need to keep in mind is to use the lip colours that look gorgeous on camera. Though the high-definition cameras are capable enough to capture the right tones and hues of any colour, you must consider using bright colours on your lips that come out beautifully in your final pictures. Also, have a trial run by applying different hues of lip colour prior to your wedding and click a few photographs to see how the colour of your lipstick will look in pictures since your wedding day is going to be about a lot of photographs and you cannot afford to mess even one of them. 

3. Highlighting the contour of your face

Looking too thin or too bulky in photographs can be the biggest nightmare of any bride. Similar is the case with the face. If your face looks too thin or too heavy in photographs, it could ruin your entire wedding album. You need to learn how to highlight the beautiful features of your face.

Makeup does the trick. Much before you ponder upon the poses, you must tell your makeup artist to contour your facial features. Face contouring can be very helpful in achieving the perfect contoured look in the wedding photographs. contouring will bring a chiselled and a more defined look to your face which is all every woman needs to amplify her bridal makeup photos. 

Using bronzer and taming the eyebrows play a major role in face contouring. However, contouring the cheekbones is the prerequisite. Do not raise your chin too much high or too much low while posing. Release the tension around your mouth and breathe from mouth instead of smiling tight-lipped. This will give a relaxed look.

4. Expressions

It is the happiest day of your life, so, smile. Leave all the stress behind and feel happy. Your happiness will translate into a smile on your lips and the twinkle in your eyes and this will further translate into beautiful pictures.

There are many expressions that you can try. Laugh out loud, give an ear to ear smile, give a tight-lipped smile, set your gaze down, look around, and what not. Just do whatever you feel like. Be as natural as possible. Apart from the standard poses, you can try accessory adjustment pose as shown in the photograph.

5. The wedding movie

Just be as natural as you can. If you are camera conscious, try to ignore it. Be yourself and enjoy your day. The camera will document your happiness.
