If you’re super thin then your arms may photograph well, but for the rest of us, there are two tricks you can keep up your sleeve.<\/p>\n
Pam was the first volunteer to be an arm model<\/a> for this blog post series. I had the privilege of photographing her daughter giving birth<\/a> 15 months ago, and then the honor of photographing Tirian for his newborn session<\/a>. \u00a0Even though our paths have crossed only briefly I’ve grown attached to their family. \u00a0Pam is an encouraging woman – put having a conversation with her on your bucket list!<\/p>\n I asked everyone participating to bring a tank top, short sleeved shirt and long sleeved shirts so that you can see what they look like on different arm types. \u00a0Pam described her arms as being very thick.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Tank tops tend to be unflattering on most arm types – especially with your arm directly up against your body. You’ll notice a slight improvement with her arms away from her body.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Then I asked her to change into her short sleeved shirt. As you can see this is immediately more flattering, even with her arm flat up against her body.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n When her arms are placed away from her body, they look even better.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n In the final images she’s wearing a long sleeved shirt. This is pretty much always safe, though you’ll want to balance that choice with how much you might be sweating if it’s warm out.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Again her arm is completely flat against her body and when it’s out a little, the image is even better.<\/p>\n
