I eagerly clicked on the above Yahoo! "news" -- and they use the term loosely -- link, hoping for some really great insider scoop BUT NO! Just the same old "flattering 3/4 view" not very cleverly renamed the "cheerleader pose" (clearly, cheerleaders have changed their pose from back in my day . . .what happened to one leg straight, other leg bent at 45 degree angle with both arms straight overhead clutching school colored pompoms?).
Here's a few great LoSpace tips they didn't include:
1. holding a heavy kid makes your arms looked toned, if no kid is immediately available, avoid smushing arms against sides; it makes them look wider.
2. big sunglasses hide crow's feet around eyes.
3. there is truly no help for short legs (unless photographer crouches down really low to the ground.
See below for demo:

oh, yeah. Not surprising that Lo knows how to look HOT for a photo! There was nothing in the article about carrying two drinks? baffling
Hot Photos are soooooo important. There are never enough good tips.
This is a great pic! Great technique!!
I will say that super high shoes make legs look a bit longer! But still, at 5'2" even with the highest shoes, I still look short!
these are tips I need. thanks
I prefer the technique of carrying two med-large drinks, one in each hand. :o)
You forgot to mention: Know you better side. I move mountains to make sure the photo is of my left side
