5 Types of Pictures You Need to Take on Prom Night
Once we finally get to prom night, we always feel like it FLEW BY! We went through all the chaos of finding the perfect dress...accessories... and even a DATE! Of course, you want to take in every moment and even go back to it the weekend after to reminisce the good times. How should you do that? TAKE ALL THE PICTURES YOU CAN! Your phone storage will definitely be full by the end of prom weekend! We gave you some inspo and tips on how to take all the perfect prom pictures this season!
1. Cute Prom Date Picture
Whether you strut in with a date or your girl gang, be sure to take a fun-loving photo with your fellow arrives. Rather than the typical stiff photo in front of the mantelpiece (though that’s always a classic!), make it something a little less generic; an all-smiles hug or group shot on the dance floor is epic evidence of a night well spent. Find a fountain or even a table for you and your group to sit out while your parents click away!
2. Getting Glammed Up
Sure, you’ll have tons of pictures when you’re done up and dressed to the nines, but why not commemorate the preparation process with some cool #bts hair and makeup photos? Whether it’s a snapshot at the salon or one mom takes as you brush on some mascara, give your future self some extra memories of the once-in-a-lifetime evening. And when you flip through your album years down the road, the warm fuzzy feels of prom will wash over you once again.
3. Candid with Your Besties
With all the planning and primping, it’s easy to overlook what prom is all about-having a blast with your tried-and-trues! Whether you’re seated elegantly at your table or bumpin’ to the hottest tunes, capture memorable moments with your favorite peeps. Better yet, score some sweet candids by passing the camera to someone else for awhile. Heading to prom in a hot new whip?!? Take the pics of you and your bestie hands up, excited, balloons, and smiles! Show everyone how much fun you are having! It doesn't matter the location, there's always time for the cute candids! Sometimes they are better than the pics you pose for!
4. Prom Dress Bodice Selfie
Smile and say “sparkle!” Whether the top half of your prom dress is beautifully bedazzled or has a unique cutout design, give it some selfie love with an up close and personal shot. Chances are no other images from the evening will give its detailed beauty justice, so scope out some good lighting and give your photography skills a whirl.

You found out the venue is drop dead gorg; lucky you! Whether it’s a chandelier-lined ballroom, overlooks a stunning city skyline, or sits on the grounds of gorgeous gardens, start snapping away girlie! It’s not every day you get to attend such a spectacular event, so set the scene for friend-filled photos with a gorgeous backdrop-you won’t regret it. As the saying goes, a picture’s worth a thousand words. Get ready to start snapping at prom! Xo, Camile
