Mastering the art of posing is no easy feat. Whether we are getting professional photos taken, posing for our personal blog or just getting snapped at a wedding, we all want to make sure we look picture perfect when it comes time to uploading it on various social media platforms. With celebs, street style stars and bloggers looking flawless time after time, conquering the technique seems more relevant than ever. Let’s face it. Posing (and taking the perfect photo) has topped everyone’s to-do list. While it may seem like the pros can just naturally turn on the posing switch, it’s actually a tad more difficult than it seems. Enter Style Panel. This week, our group of bloggers shows us tricks of its trade on how to look good in photos in the most flattering way possible.

Kayla Short of Short Presents shows us the importance of accentuating our best assets and the favourite parts of the outfit. Still having trouble in looking and feeling good in photos?
