No Need to Ask Strangers! How to Take Stylish Selfie Duos*

I Can't Wait for the Honeymoon ♡
The excitement after the wedding is, of course, the honeymoon ♩
There are so many wonderful locations filled with extraordinary experiences to visit during the honeymoon.
While it's of course important to see them with our own eyes and etch them in our hearts, I also want to leave behind lots of photo memories that I would want to print and display ♡
The problem that arises is, "How and who should we ask to take photos when we're traveling just the two of us?"
Most of the time, the couple’s photos during the trip are taken by asking a local person, "Could you please take our picture?" However, it's often rare to feel satisfied saying, "They took a great photo of us! ♡"
It's especially common with overseas tourists, where, despite wanting to have the scenery included, the focus ends up being mainly on our faces or just the ground.
After all, passersby are not professional photographers and don’t have that Japanese sense of aesthetics, so we often end up slightly disappointed with the outcome...
Don’t you think so?!?!
(Of course, we are grateful for them pressing the shutter...)
For those who feel this way, please try self-portrait poses featured in this article ♡
Even with casual clothes and photos we took ourselves, they will surely turn into wonderful couple photos ♩
Self-Portrait Posing ♡ Photo Pose You Want to Take on Your Honeymoon ① Sitting on a Railing
The first pose to introduce is sitting on a bridge railing or handrail. It looks like a casual chat, but there's a stylish scenery in the background ♡
Try taking photos using a tripod in less crowded streets. *
The sitting pose brings out the natural expressions of both of you, which is delightful ♡
You could also casually hold a coffee and chat ◎
Self-Portrait Posing ♡ Photo Pose You Want to Take on Your Honeymoon ② Back View
Don't forget the back view photos, which are often missed! The key is to set the camera so that the person is small, and the scenery is the main focus.
It can turn into a postcard-like photo ♡
Like this, wrapping her arms around his waist in a cozy pose looks adorable too. It gives a heartwarming feeling of their closeness.

This is a perfect shot to take during your honeymoon!

When posting on Instagram, I'd like to tag it with "#followmeto" ♩
Self-Portrait Posing ♡ Photo Pose You Want to Take on Your Honeymoon ④ Sitting Close Together
Snap a picture of your back view as you sit close together with shoulders touching. It’s like capturing the leisurely flow of time during the honeymoon.
Try this when you find a bench at a beach or in a park ♡
Touching foreheads or sharing a nose kiss can be romantic too ♩
Since the scenery is the main focus, you don't have to feel embarrassed about being lovey-dovey.

In pre-wedding photos, the pose of him kneeling is typically a proposal shot, but...
For honeymoon photos, this stylish pose of him tying your shoes is lovely ♡
It’s a shot that expresses his kindness in everyday life.
Here, the couple captures him struggling to tie the ribbons of her heels. She can't help but laugh at how hard he's trying ♡

If there's a place to set up a tripod in the distance, let’s take a picture of both of you walking together while holding hands ♡

Although the photo was taken in an ordinary alley, it looks so stylish!
For the long life ahead, we want to hold hands and stroll, no matter how old we get ♡
