#1 Feel Confident Inside
Enjoy wearing a swimsuit and being around your friends and having vanity moments. Every woman needs to have your ‘Oh, my God, I'm super sexy. Let's take pictures. Let's all get together.

If you're feeling great, you'll photograph great too. Smile—it's summer!
#2 Choose the right swimwears
The key to finding a bathing suit that looks good on you is knowing which designs and colors balance your body shape. Are your hips wider than your waist, or is your waist larger than your hips? Do you have a large bust? Find your perfect swimsuits by knowing your body shapes.
#3 Backgrounds
A dreamy background is crucial to a good photo, whether you’re by the pool, exploring the local town, at a party, or spending the day at the beach great photo opportunities are around every corner. Look for a background that is lightly contrasted as it will elongate your shape and make you appear more tanned (bonus!).
