Oh, honey, you wanna talk about them beach selfies, huh? Lord, all these young folks with their fancy phones, snappin’ pictures all day long. Back in my day, we didn’t have no cameras at the beach. We just had the sun and the sand, and that was enough for us. But I guess times are changin’.

Selfies on the Beach
So, you wanna look good in your beach selfies, eh? Well, first thing’s first, you gotta find a good spot. Ain’t no use takin’ a picture with a bunch of trash in the background. Find a nice clean spot with the ocean lookin’ all pretty and blue. If the sun’s beatin’ down too hard, you gonna be squintin’ like an old mole. Find some shade, maybe under a palm tree or one of them big umbrellas.
And don’t be standin’ there like a stick in the mud! Loosen up a bit! Turn to the side, put your hand on your hip, do somethin’! You can try one of them fancy poses like them models do, but honestly, just be yourself. If that’s too hard, hold up a cute puppy or something.
And don’t forget to smile! Nobody wants to see a grumpy face on a sunny beach. Even if you ain’t feelin’ it, just fake it ’til you make it, as they say. And for the love of Pete, don’t forget to check that you have enough battery charge, it’s gonna be bad if you do all the things but your phone is dead.
How to Take Good Beach Selfies
These newfangled phones got all sorts of settings, I hear. Something about “low light” and “high definition.” I don’t know nothin’ about that, but I reckon you should play around with them buttons and see what looks best. And hold that phone up high! Nobody wants to see up your nose, child. Hold it up high and angle it down a bit. Makes you look all slim and pretty.
- Hold that phone up high.
- Find a good, clean spot.
- Smile, even if you don’t feel like it!
- Don’t forget to fix the light!
If you got one of them tripods, I guess that could help. Set that thing up, put your phone on a timer, and then you can run around and pose all you want. I seen folks doin’ that. Looks a little silly to me, but hey, whatever floats your boat. If you’re going with friends or family, that is even better.
And honey, don’t be afraid to take a whole bunch of pictures. These new phones can hold a million pictures, I hear. Take a hundred, take two hundred! You can always delete the bad ones later. Just keep snappin’ until you get one you like. You can even have someone take a video and pick the best frame, that’s what I heard.
Beach Selfies – Dress and Pose
Now, about what to wear…well, that depends on what you’re goin’ for. If you wanna show off your swimsuit, then go for it! Just make sure it fits good and you ain’t spillin’ out all over the place. Ain’t nobody want to see that. You can do some poses like sitting in the sand and looking back, that seems cool.
If you’re a little shy, you can wear a pretty sundress or a flowy skirt. Somethin’ that catches the wind and looks all romantic-like. Or, you know, just wear whatever makes you feel good. It doesn’t matter what you wear on the beach, you can still take a good selfie.
If you want to go all out, get a big floppy hat. Those always look good in pictures. And some big sunglasses, too. Makes you look like a movie star. Some folks like to wear jewelry, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Sand and salt water ain’t good for your necklaces and bracelets.
And don’t forget the sunscreen! You don’t want to end up lookin’ like a lobster in your beach selfies, do you? Sunburn ain’t pretty, and it hurts like the dickens. Slather that stuff on good and thick, especially on your face and shoulders. The sun is super strong on the beach, gotta protect your skin.

More Tips for Beach Selfies
I seen some girls holdin’ up a seashell or a piece of driftwood in their pictures. That can be kinda cute, I guess. Adds a little somethin’ extra to the picture. You can find a lot of stuff on the beach, and make your beach selfies a bit special.
If you’re feelin’ really adventurous, you can try takin’ a picture in the water. Just be careful, don’t want to drop your phone in the ocean! Maybe get one of them waterproof cases if you’re gonna do that. I’ve seen folks who will put their phone on a stick and dip it in the water, that’s insane, but you do you.
Most importantly, have fun! Takin’ pictures is supposed to be enjoyable. Don’t get so caught up in tryin’ to get the perfect shot that you forget to enjoy the beach. Relax, soak up the sun, and let your personality shine through in your pictures.
And who cares what other people think? If you like your beach selfies, that’s all that matters. You do you, honey. You do you. Don’t try to copy others, be creative, that is how you get the best beach selfies. Oh, and be safe, there are a lot of weirdos on the beach. Don’t go to places that are too dark, or where there is no one around. You gotta be safe, that’s the most important thing.
