How To Get Your Wedding Photos Right

Follow these tips for superb wedding photos.
  1. Pose right: Standing awkwardly in front of the camera is no way to pose for your big day. It is not only important to look beautiful but one has to look confident too. Follow the secret of top models and actors who are naturals on camera. When you strike a pose, don't expose your entire frame. Only show three-fourths of your body for a slimmer appearance. Avoid staring directly into the camera. Suck your belly in and stand straight with your shoulders erect when the photographer takes the snap.
  2. Use photo-ready makeup: How many times have we seen wedding photos where the bride's face looks like a white orb because of using too much foundation? Although foundation evens out your skin tone, it can ruin pictures. The extra shine and white powder reflects the flash and dulls your complexion instead of having it glow. Use photo-ready foundation, and makeup in this category, to avoid this. Do a trial with your makeup artist before the wedding and ask a friend to click your pictures for an idea of how they will turn out on the actual day.
  3. Camera at eye level: To avoid a double chin from taking over your beautiful visage, ask the photographer to position the camera either at eye level or above it. It also helps to tilt your head a little and look up.
  4. Avoid hard lighting: Outdoor day weddings are tricky because the photographer needs to find the right natural light to click the couple. Try to find a dim spot in the hours before dusk. As for indoor ceremonies, the issue is the bright light that casts a shadow on the couple's face. Your dark circles will appear deeper. Make sure you don't stand directly under the blinding hall lights and avoid the direct glare. Ask the wedding planner for soft lights for a photo session.
  5. Don't forget to smile: All the hectic activities and stress can leave you tired, but smile you must. It will be your weapon to combat the tiredness. If it gets too difficult to keep grinning with the droves of friends and relatives eager to take snaps with you, think of all the plans you've made for your married life and it will light up your face like a 1,000-watt bulb!

Wiz Khalifa and Future diss their exes, Amber Rose and Ciara?

Future and Ciara broke up a few months ago, while Wiz and Amber broke up just a few weeks ago and it looks like the newly single men are already dissing their exes. A new diss track was released last night by super music producer Mike Will Made It titled 'P**sy Overrated' featuring Wiz and Future and the rapper and singer took aim at their exes. On the track Wiz spits, “Rich ni**a get you/ he’ll never put nothing above you / every time I see you I don’t never want nothing from you,’ while Ciara's baby daddy Future raps, “You supposed to f*ck me like a star/ girl you know you faking / yo pu**y overrated!” Ouch!

Church Cancels Funeral After Seeing This Obituary PHOTO Of The Deceased

A Saskatoon widow scrambled to find a new venue for her husband’s funeral after a local church cancelled her booking based on how the deceased looked in his obituary. Cheryl Stinson says her family was set to hold a memorial for her stepfather, Larry Frazer, at the St. Patrick Parish Centre hall on Sept. 29, until the church cancelled the booking on Monday. The worst part is why the church cancelled, Stinson said in an interview. “The funeral home called her Monday and told her the church saw Larry’s picture in the paper and because of what they saw they ‘do not want his kind there’ so she couldn’t have the hall,” Stinson said in an interview. “My mother was extremely upset, of course.” Widow Bonnie Frazer (left) and daughter Cheryl Stinson are feeling the sting of being rejected by St. Patrick Church cancelling Larry Frazer’s funeral on September 25 in Saskatoon because of what he was wearing in this picture.
