Back ground is important. Make sure it doesn't detract from the main subject, you.
For women a nice and easy pose is to look down then look up into the camera without moving your head.
Try to look beyond the camera.
Taking a photo into a mirror is good, but look at the camera in the mirror, not down at the actual camera. This is good for head and shoulders.
Full length is good, but go side or 3/4 on, not straight on.
And A personal preference - lose the dick pics

"L had a great compliment last night, someone we were chatting too said her photo's don't do her justice... She could have just said that my camera skills were crap...  "
Many people would say my photos don't do me justice... hmmm |

I sometimes think I'm either incredibly photogenic or the complete opposite.
My tip is mainly to be with someone who you can be with where you'll be more fully yourself and relaxed - rather than do it yourself.
Let them take pics when you are not posing but instead portraying your natural self. And loads of pics should be taken. Use probably no more than 10% of those.
Experiment and see which ones attract good interest. Take more photos periodically, so your clothes, style and hair - as well as settings - all vary.
Not all pics need to show your face. People like to see enough of you to be able to determine their level of interest in you and feel like they have a good grasp of your overall physique and looks. This way there are no surprises on meets.
Keep getting pics taken of you. Be in venues that bring out your best, so you're relaxed and there's nothing off-putting for you or the viewers.
We change, so we are less accustomed to the current self in pics, so that can also be an element of less comfort,as we've been used to seeing a different person before.
Take chances and find out what others like to see of you. Self-taken photos show a person posing and concentrating and generally are a poorer reflection of how you'll be when you have meets.  |
