   There’s something so simple yet heartwarming about a photo of two people walking side by side. Get someone to take a picture of you and your partner from behind as you stroll down the street, hand in hand or with his arm draped over your shoulder. This shot is perfect if you’re not quite ready to fully reveal your relationship, but you want to give a little hint to the world. It says, “We’re in this together,” without showing too much.

2. The “Mysterious Shadow Duo” Vibe

   Let the shadows speak for themselves! Stand in front of a light source and let your shadows create the story. Whether you’re holding hands, dancing, or just standing close together, the silhouette effect adds a romantic, almost dreamy feel to the shot. Plus, the shadow twist gives it a creative edge that makes people wonder just who that is by your side.

3. The “Fingers Intertwined, Hearts Aligned” Pic

   A close-up of your hands intertwined says so much without ever showing your faces. Whether you’re holding hands in a car, across a café table, or just while sitting together, it’s a super cute way to hint that you're taken.

   A reflection shot is a playful way to introduce your relationship. Snap a photo of you both reflected in a mirror, whether you’re at home or even at a parking lot. The mirror gives it a sneaky, almost accidental vibe—like “Oops, did we just reveal something?” It’s not too in-your-face but still shows off the fact that you’re in the same space.

5. The "Hold Me Tight" Hug

   A hug from behind is one of the sweetest, most comforting gestures—and it makes for an adorable photo. Whether it’s a gentle hug around the waist or just a sweet tight hug, this shot is equivalent of a warm blanket. You could take this shot at the beach, on a quiet street, or even in your living room—anywhere that feels like your space.

6. The "Hiding Behind Flowers" Tease

   Add a fun, artsy touch to soft launch your relationship by asking your partner to hold a bouquet of flowers in front of his face while you snap a photo, or crop out his face and focus on the flowers while still including his chest in the frame. This shot is also perfect to add a pop of colour with the flowers. Plus, who doesn't love a flower feed?
