Thereâs a few main things to consider when taking a good nude or lewd. Weâll expand on each of these, but the basic points to think about are:
Background
Lighting
Angle & Pose
Clothing, toys, and other ways to spice things up
The Basics
First and foremost: close-up nudes generally arenât the best idea. Zoomed-in photos of genitals arenât most peopleâs thing, and will almost certainly be removed as low effort. You have so much more to offer than just your penis, so show a bit more of it off! Even if you are taking a photo where the primary focus is your genitals, there are plenty of ways to make it more unique and visually appealing. As mentioned above, factor in lighting, angle & pose - but above all else, feature more of your body!
Secondly: What do you want viewers to think when looking at your photo? What do you want viewers to feel? What kind of aesthetic are you trying to convey?
Background
Besides what you want the photo to focus on, what else is in your photo? You donât want anything in your photo to distract viewers from the good stuff, nor do you want anything that will turn them off. The main culprits here are things like messy bedrooms, or taking a photo with the toilet clearly visible. If possible, clean up your background before taking a photo, or place your camera elsewhere so the distraction isnât visible.
Lighting
Natural light generally works best for photos, but this isnât always easy to achieve without flashing neighbours or passers-by (please donât do that, they havenât consented to see you nude). You might want to try experimenting with the placement & angle of a lamp and seeing what works. Youâd be surprised by how much the lighting can change a photo, and it can go a long way towards highlighting the intended focus of your photo as well.
Angle & Pose
When considering camera angle, remember that the camera lens is effectively the eye of the viewer. If you think âWhere would my Dom/Domme be in this scene?â, that is almost always the perfect camera spot & angle.
An angle from above tends to highlight submissiveness, as if the viewer is looking down on the subject. It also shrinks sizes & slims. An angle from below emphasises size & bulk. If youâre aiming for your photo to convey subservience or that you are smol, use a camera angle above the central view point. If you want to highlight a bulge or bubble butt, consider taking the photo with the camera just above the midpoint.
Experiment with how far in each direction you want to go. Typically we find a few inches off the midpoint is best, any further and it looks too stylised & accentuated.
Another thing to experiment with is how you position your body. Along with lighting, this is how you highlight certain aspects of yourself in your photo.
Clothing, Toys, and Other Ways to Spice Things Up
Think about what youâre wearing. You donât have to be naked - you have plenty of options, you can do whatever feels comfortable to you. First and foremost though, make sure that whatever youâre wearing is clean & presentable.
Additionally, you can use toys or other items such as collars, clamps, restraints, anal plugs or any number of other things to make your photos more interesting. Again, consider what you want viewers to see, think or feel. Restraints convey the idea that youâre helpless & vulnerable; a collar & leash might imply a level of obedience; and clamps or impact play marks could be used to demonstrate masochism.
TLDR
Put a little thought into your post, try to impress the viewer. Use the camera as if it's a Dom/Dommeâs face. Refrain from zoomed in genital pics. Be mindful of your background, i.e no toilets, dirty rooms are distracting etc. Use natural light if possible. Test out different poses and angles. Have fun!
