Aside from enjoying beautiful scenery during travels, capturing touching memories is crucial, especially when traveling as a couple. How boyfriends take beautiful photos can be a key factor in strengthening the relationship. Nowadays, one of the reasons couples argue includes differences in photography skills—often caused by the huge gap between what girls envision and what their boyfriends actually capture. Below are four photography tips that, even with just a smartphone, can help you easily take photos your girlfriend will love.

1. Full-body shot: angle for a flattering figure
When taking full-body shots, how your girlfriend appears in the frame is very important. A good angle can make her look taller and slimmer, while a bad one can make her appear shorter and chubbier than usual. Whether shooting from a high angle or a low angle, ask your girlfriend to stand close to the camera until you find the right spot (using the forced perspective technique), with one leg straight and tiptoes pointing toward you. Pairing this with common poses used by social media influencers can earn extra points.

2. Taking photos with food
When dining at a restaurant, one of the most important things when the food arrives is taking a photo with it. When taking the photo, it’s recommended to zoom the lens in to an appropriate distance. Don’t eat yet—just pose as if you’re about to take a bite, and make sure the lighting is bright.

3. Make good use of the focus function
Besides the sense of line in composition being very important, making good use of your camera’s focus function can also help blend the person and scenery better, or highlight the person. Focus the lens on the person to make your girlfriend’s facial contours clearer, and adjust the brightness to avoid the photo turning out too dark or backlit.

4. Couple selfie group photos
Selfie group photos are very important for couples. In this case, the boyfriend should try to stand in the front and sacrifice his own presence to frame the girlfriend beside him. Be sure to make your girlfriend’s face look smaller and slimmer, giving off a cute, delicate impression. Adding a slight downward angle can make her face more three-dimensional, and the whole picture will feel sweeter.
