plandids? The word is a portmanteau of "planned" and "candid," which kinda sounds like a contradiction in terms. The idea is to post "as if you didn't know the picture was being taken, but you're still posing," according to Instagrammer Maria Gillett. 。
"Kind of like you've been caught in the act of looking good in an 'off duty model' sort of way," Gillett adds. 。

So, why is this trend so popular? Gillett thinks people love taking plandids because "people don't like to look like they're making too much effort."。 "Because it's meant to look like somebody else took the photo while you weren't looking, it kind of gives the person an excuse for putting up the photo, without looking really vain and contrived," says Gillett. 。View this post on Instagram 。

But, just how 。

is this purportedly new trend? Professional photographer Ronald Timehin says the word plandid is basically a "new term for an already existing concept." He says in his line of work he's often "directing people to move, stand or pose in a certain way" with the aim of making the final image look as "natural as possible."。
"This is nothing new as photographers and models have been doing this for years, before social media was even a thing," says Timehin. 。

So, how do we take a good plandid? Timehin says the best way to take a good plandid is to make the person physically move. "Then shoot using burst mode, capturing all the little intricate details of the expression, rather than a static often forced pose," he says. 。
A La Mol says that she tends to look down for "that 'I didn't realise there was a camera' look." 。
"I then just take a million (not even exaggerating) photos while I'm moving to capture that specific 'casual' moment." 。
