pictures&posing


Question Posted Saturday April 5 2008, 6:36 pm

in real life i would say i'm averagely pretty, but in a picture it doesn't show! I look really bad in pictures (especially ones i take myself) i would say that i'm not very photogenic...
My Questions:
1) How can i make myself more photogenic? (if thats possible)
2) what are some good poses that everyone looks good in? (i'm not talking about formal pictures, just like for fun when i'm with friends or just randomly take some of myself)
3) what are some good clothes to wear that dont make a neck look fat or to long or short or anything in the body for that matter? (like collared shirts, sweaters etc)


Anything more you can add feel free to! i need all the help I can get!

Thanks:)

there are sooo many poses for you to try.

in my photos, i hate my smile. so i try my very best to avoid smiling.

i angle the camera slightly above my head also.

& i try to take pictures outside in daylight, with the flash off.
having the flash on gives your skin a weird, lighter color than it actually is.

depending on the type of digital camera you own.
camera phones are harder to use to take decent pictures with because of the crappy pixels & such.

i also edit a lot my pictures with [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) (you should download that program & fiddle around with it)

it's hard for me to give you actual advice about taking photos of yourself, but browse around on my photos & maybe you can get some good ideas :]

lots of people are not photogenic (me for example) but what i found was that when i try to look special for a picture it always came out bad. I found that natural shots were better. also when taking a picture of yourself try not looking directly at the camera. but i found out i look better in pictures that other people took.
btw, everyone is self consious about pictures, don't discard every pic but ask people what they think about the picture (sometimes it could be only you who think that it looks weird)

good luck
