Self portrait

This is a bit tricky to get right – but not impossible. You probably just need to make more attempts to get the result you want. Also, your camera really should have a 10 second shutter delay function – otherwise you limit yourself to the pictures taken from your arms length or to using a mirror.

If you just want to include your face, holding the camera by yourself is not a major problem. You might even have a camera where the LCD can be turned so that you can see yourself and properly compose the picture. You’ll probably still have issues with camera shake, limited viewing angle and the limitation to wide angle pictures.

Using the 10 second timer function on the camera helps minimize artistic challenges. You are not limited to wide angle and close-ups only, and you can avoid camera shake by placing the camera on a steady surface – but on the other hand, framing and posing can now be a bit of a problem.

All in all, it’s still better to have someone else behind the camera – unless there is no choice. But with some practice, even the self portraits have the potential to look sizzling hot.

Final tips

If you’ve managed to read this far, then you should also be rewarded with the greatest secret of taking good photos. It’s actually very simple (well, many great secrets are):

“Take a lot of photos but show only the very best!

Even the professional photographers only show the best 3 or 4 out of every 100 photos they take. People look at those photos and are amazed at the quality – but they never see the failures, or the just so-so good ones. The same principle should apply to you as well – don’t show every picture taken of you, only the best ones!

With digital cameras, it’s easy to shoot 100 photos in a row, but with little difference between those. Don’t just dump those 100 pictures upon your friends! When showing your pictures, make a selection first – and then make another more critical selection of this as well. Be firm (not to say brutal) and critical – and you’ll be amazed on the feedback you receive form others, on how good and photogenic you look!

So, next time you pose for pictures, experiment with the camera settings, picture angles, poses, light conditions, etc. Learn what works for your face and body. And don’t just take one photo – take several with different settings – and choose the best ones for display. And have fun!

When you are done with the photo session, post your hottest pictures on WannabeStar.co.uk. The better you look, the better the chances of attracting attention to yourself, to your pictures and to your websites – whether you are interested in modelling, music, acting or just in becoming famous! Your appearances matter!!
