Any photographers reading this? Or anyone with tips on how to take sexy pics? If so, I really need your advice!
I recently saw someone post a sexy bath selfie and wanted to recreate the pose in hopes I could look at least half as beautiful as she did.
I ran the bath water, added bubbles. Lit a candle and turned off the lights. Mood lighting! Also figured it might hide some flaws. (I'm a plus sized curvy chick)
So, I gently entered the bath, it felt great! But then I remembered her pic. She was on her stomach in the water, her plump behind was risen out of the water, nicely surrounded by an entourage of suds that shaped it perfectly! So obviously, I needed to flip.
As stated earlier, I'm not a size 2. I'm thick. I'm curvy. But I really wanted to attempt this pic! I decided to flip over. I did this rather carelessly and the water splooshed around and some spilled over the edge! 🤦🏻♀️ I had to lay perfectly still, straining my neck, holding my head up above water for what felt like forever! 😰
FINALLY THE WATER WAS CALM! THIS IS MY BIG CHANCE!
I propped myself up on my forearms, most weight on my elbows. At this point I'm thinking before the next photo session I'm going to buy those cute duck stickies people use for their tub. Mine will be for elbow pads though. Anyhoo, I lift the phone above my head to see my rumpus. I'm secretly hoping I have a sexy bubbly entourage of my own. Unfortunately, my titanic ass must've bursted all the bubbles during my massive flip in the tub! There were none left! 😭
However, I decided I would still explore taking a pic and I'll add bubbles once I get the angle right! If at first you don't succeed.... Right?!
So I prop myself up again. I'm realizing that to get a proper pic I need to lift my arms higher. I have to use both, one hand to hold the phone and one to snap the pic. To do this, I need off of my elbows. 😳 My feet are out of the water, pushed up against the opposite wall. I'm still on my stomach. My arms are ready to raise a bit higher to snap this pic. My plan at this point is that my boobs will hold my head out of water.
Ready..... Set.....GO!!!!
I raise my arms, use my feet to push me forward a bit, my boobs slide up the tub, I'm about to snap a pic when my boobs quickly slide the fuck back down, I get a charlie horse in my leg, my face smacks the water. I'm practically waterboarding myself and my brain is confused af and not telling me to put the phone down! I'm flailing around like a fish out of water. I finally have enough sense to put one hand back in the water to prop myself back up on an elbow. I finally put the phone down and was able to lift my face up to catch my breath. I still can't see bc there's soapy water in my eyes. While flipping back over the candle falls into the tub. But hey, I'm finally on my back. My new comfort zone! 😆 Note to self: don't trust little boobs for such a big task 🤭
After all that, I still want to take sexy pics. I believe beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. But maybe bath photos aren't for me? Does anyone have any tips or advice? Please share!
