Selfies are big business right now and anyone who says they are vain/immature/lame/atrocious is living in some sort of deluded version of reality. They are so great. Selfies are a liberating and decisive mode of personal photography and anything liberating and decisive in this day and age is valuable and should be cherished. They say, “Here I was, at this time in my life, but because this is just a head and shoulder shot you can’t see where the here is or what’s going on. Pout.”
Haters you can go on hatin’, but selfies will still prevail, and if you can’t beat ‘em, you might as well join ‘em.
Due to the effects alcohol has on perception, judgement, coordination, ect., even the most practiced of selfographers (haha) will encounter some issues when trying to drunk selfie. These are easily overcome with some adjustments to your surroundings and thoughtful actions when posing. Follow these tips for maximum babin’ out selfies and let your shameless creativity shine.
OPEN YOUR EYES
You probably think you look fine but you do not, you have drunk eyes. Selfies are not supposed to be a visual indication of how intoxicated you are, they are just supposed to be like, ‘Hey, I am having so much fun and looking particularly gorgeous at this time what a coincidence I took a photo,’ so make those bad boys pop. Looking oddly surprised is classier than looking wasted.
CAMERA UP AND ANGLE DOWN
Seeing peoples arms in selfies is not just happy coincidence. Taking your selfie from a higher point is more flattering and forgiving for any alcohol induced face mishaps that might occur.
Instagram filters have the power to change lives and bring 4s to a 6. You can take a picture of somebody popping a squat and put a filter over it and it would probably get Tumblr famous.
GET A SECOND OPINION
You might think you look great but you are drunk, there is a great chance that you look horrible, get a credible source to check it out.
