So I’ve been trying to take some intimate pictures, and honestly, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Either the angle makes everything look weird, the lighting is unflattering, or the final result just doesn’t have that sexy, aesthetic vibe. I see people posting really well-done, almost professional-looking shots, and I can’t figure out how they do it. Do I need better lighting? A specific pose? Any advice on what works best?

This is actually really helpful! It makes sense that lighting and angles play such a big role. A lot of people probably think it’s just about snapping a quick pic, but there’s clearly more to it. I like the idea of using a mirror for different perspectives. Definitely taking notes on this!
It’s all about knowing a few tricks! First, lighting makes a massive difference—soft, indirect light will be your best friend. Natural daylight works great, or you can use a lamp with a warm bulb and a sheer cloth to diffuse it. Angles also matter more than you’d think! Instead of shooting straight on, try tilting the camera slightly or using a mirror for a different perspective. And don’t forget the background—a clean, minimal setting makes a huge difference.
