Put your phone on video mode then put it in a hand basket. Make sure to put things around your phone to hide it and voila

Set your phone down in a basket and then when ever your coming up behind them, just set the smaller basket down right behind them

Obv cover it up as much as yu can, and the bottom of your phone if you don’t black your screen out, but also, with a blacked out screen while recording, that’d be pretty convincing to people that you aren’t recording

You can get angles kinda like this just standing. What I do is is turn my phone upside down, and hold it from the bottom the long way. Point the phones back camera at her that way. You just have to edit the video/screenshots later and flip them back right side up.

Thank you man. I just started and your adivce come in handy yesterday. May i ask another question?

When you Point the phones back camera at her. Would you prefer raising your arm from the side of your body up or rasing your arm forward to her? Which one look less sus? which one is more practical?

Just kneel down and “look at an item on the bottom shelf” while positioning your phone under her. I think a lot of people new to capping don’t realize everyone is in their own little world, as long as you aren’t super overt no one is gonna notice

I wouldn’t typically raise my arm at all, anything that makes it seems obvious your taking a picture I would avoid doing. I just keep my arm to my side where it looks natural
