Tips to help you look better in photos

Washington Post [read free]: “We spend our entire lives looking at our own faces. Cameras, meanwhile, have mere moments to capture them.

But even though we can’t completely control the way cameras — and everyone else — see us, there are things we can do, and facets of photography that we can learn to take more control of our images. The next time you find yourself in front of a camera — say, in one of these common scenarios — here are a few things to keep in mind.”
