Pictures and video. You have to have them on your site, right?
I hate pictures of myself. My eyes are always half shut, or I have some weird look on my face.
Anyway, my sister came over yesterday, and we took pictures. Most were immediately discarded. Then to try to find something where I didn’t look too weird…
For the project we did yesterday, thankfully we needed full body shots.
You can see our project from yesterday here >>>
I still have to work on headshots. UGH.
Anyone have picture-taking secrets?
Please leave some if you do!

The best tip that I can give is to not hide from the camera. I used to hate taking pictures. I would pull my head back which would give me a double chin even though I am thin. I would slouch over making my stomach look bigger than it really is. The more I did these things, the worse the pictures looked and the worse I felt. It was a never ending cycle. So, to take a good picture, stand up straight, hold your head up high and smile like you are actually happy to be taking a picture. It will improve your pictures immensely.
