Couple photos featuring the 'knee hug' trend*
Don’t you often see photos like this on young couples' Instagram?
It's a pose where the boyfriend holds his girlfriend's knees or calves and carries her*
(As of October 2022, it is also trending on TikTok as part of a challenge!)
This pose is called "knee hug" and is currently trending as a staple way to take couple photos♩
Instead of the traditional way of lifting where he supports her sides, stomach, or butt (which looks heavy),
holding her legs makes it look light and refreshing—a modern twist!*
Among junior high and high school students, many girls seem to dream of taking such photos in front of Disney's Cinderella Castle, merry-go-rounds, Aquaspheres, or the globe at USJ!*
How to do a knee hug*
Here's how to do the knee hug in three steps*
① The girlfriend places her hands on the boyfriend's shoulders.
② The girlfriend bends one knee at a time, while the boyfriend supports her knees and calves from below.
③ The boyfriend firmly holds both legs to stabilize.
Tips to look cute:
✓ Raise your legs as close to a right angle as possible (aim them upwards for extra effect◎)
✓ Wrap your arms around his neck and gaze at each other.
✓ Smile (don’t look strained).
