Having a photoshoot done with your best friend is a great way to treasure valuable moments. When you look back at them in the years to come, the photos will bring back all the crazy memories you’ve had together.

However, when it comes to doing a photoshoot with BFFs that are properly planned or professionally taken, not everyone has them. If you’re planning for a formal photoshoot with your best friend, you’ve come to the right place.

In this article, we’ve put together 25 of the most exciting ideas & poses that you can try out in the photoshoot with your best friend.

25 Fun Ideas and Poses for Best Friend Photoshoot

1. Play Dress-Up

As kids who didn’t love playing dress-up with our friends? Playing dress-up as adults can be a great way to reminisce the joyful times you spent together with your best friend.

Dress up as your favorite movie character, as fairy tale characters, or even as superheroes. The choice is up to you.

2. Go Crazy

When we’re with our closest friends, we usually act pretty goofily. Everyone loves to joke around when we’re with our besties. So, why not go crazy and document the goofy behavior during the photoshoot as well?

Later, you can easily add a smile to photo or enhance the laughter-filled moments using simple editing tools to make the memories even more joyful. best friends jumping

3. Go to Your Favourite Place

There must be a place that you often visit with best friends that you all love. Such a place makes for an ideal spot for a photoshoot with your best friends.

4. Get In the Tub Together

In the course of your photoshoot with your best friend, a good way to show how comfortable you are with them is to get into the same tub for a photo. And no, it doesn’t need to be in a bathroom; a symbolic one would do just fine.

While this pose will exhibit your intimacy, it will also look funny to look at. A perfect blend!

5. Celebrate Friendship

One sad aspect of growing up is how it becomes almost impossible for all the close friends to come together. This makes for a perfect reason to celebrate whenever you’re with your best friends together and do a photoshoot to capture the togetherness.

6. Enjoy the Sunset with Friends

There’s something about that soft light during the golden hour that gives a nostalgic touch to the photos. If you happen to be hanging out with your best friend during the sunset, don’t miss the opportunity to take a photo together.

If the light was not so dramatic when you took the photo with your friend, you can easily enhance the look using Colorcinch.

Step 1: Upload the image to Colorcinch.

7. Chill Out Together

Spend some quality time with your best friend, preferably in nature, and be sure to take out some time for some photoshoot. Such photos will remind you of the good times you had together with your friends.

8. Wear Something Similar

Hey, if you don’t have a similar taste nobody would believe that you are best friends with each other. Dressing up in a similar fashion for the photoshoot is a great way to represent the commonalities you share with your bestie.

9. Try Different Perspectives

In life, our closest friends are usually the ones who teach us how to look at things from a different perspective. So, don’t be afraid to alter your perspective when shooting photos with them.

Lay down on the ground, hang down from a tree branch, or try out some weird angles. It’ll give a fresh look to your images.

10. Be a Kid Again

You should consider yourself really lucky if your best friend has been together with you from early childhood. In such case, a fun idea is to relive the past and feel like a kid again.

Blow some bubbles, play with the sand, spray each other with water, or play with the leaves. Look around you and think, “If I were a kid, what mischief would I be up to?”.

11. Play Your Favorite Sports Together

If you and your best friend share a common favorite sport be sure to do a photoshoot of you two enjoying it. When the body gets old, such images will feel really special.

12. Add Some Cuteness

Make your photos look a lot cuter by adding elements that’ll add that “awe” factor. It could be flowers, a pretty dress, or some other props. Think of what would look cute on you and your best friend.

13. Show Your Love for Each Other

Best friends are called so for a reason. Besides the casual friendship, we also develop a sense of love for them. A fun way to show your love towards your best friend is by making heart signs with your hands during the photoshoot.

14. Silhouette Photoshoot With Best Friend

Pose against a bright background and shoot by exposing for the background. You’ll end up with a backlit image that just shows the outline of the bodies. See if you can identify you and your friends in the years to come.

15. Laugh

When we think of our best friend, some of the things that come to our mind are all the laughter and the sincere smiles while we’re with them. They’re truly something to be treasured.

Crack an impromptu joke, do something stupid, or talk about a funny incident to ignite laughter on each other’s faces.

16. Head Out to the Pool

Pools always make for a great location for a photoshoot, so why not take some photos with your best friend there? Photos by the poolside give a sensation of relaxation and enjoyment, and are always fun to look at.

17. Get Classy

The idea here is to take a simple-looking image with your close friends. Nothing flashy. Be who you are, just be with your friend and take photos with no fancy poses.

Such photos showcase the basic and simple side of life that you share with your bestie.

Another great aspect of this sort of photo is how you can easily give it a classic black and white look using Colorcinch to make it immortal.

Step 1: Upload the image to Colorcinch.

23. Photograph Partial Faces

24. Turn Away From the Camera

Take some “mysterious” photos with your best friend by dressing up in a similar way and turning away from the camera. It’ll be fun to see if you can recognize yourself when looking back at the photo.

25. Get Creative

For this photoshoot idea with your best friends, it is important that you think out of the box. Instead of taking a general portrait, see how you can make different shapes by involving your best friend(s).

If there’s someone creative in the group, that’ll really be of help.
