Hi, I have seen so many of you posting such wonderful pics of yourself. I can never take great ones of myself. I look good in d mirror but that doesn't get captured right, lol. I have a good phone with cameras both sides please suggest some tricks to take great selfies, I can't keep irritating people to take my pics all the time :P.

When I take a photo if myself I usually take atleast ten to begin with. I'm different lighting and angles and I end up with one or two that work. It's good test different angles and lighting to see what is best for you. I try not to use Photoshop in my pics unless it's just for fun.

Agree with Tara. Use bright, natural lighting, a good background, different poses, smiles and angles. Then choose the one you like best! I don't like editing my selfies b/c it ends up not looking like yourself :p :)

Natural light is best.take the picture slightly above eye level, any lower will make your chin look fat and head look big lol. if its dark, try night mode on your camera, avoid using flash,its ok to use sometimes. avoid white bras,the usually show through, in body shots, put shoulders back, it makes you look more confident and lastly, when you smile, focus on making your cheekbones high, not so much on the width of the smile, hope this helps!

Lighting. Shoot from above, hold the camera at an angle looking down on you for a good shot, from below the chin tends to look big and if you have any fat on your bones it gives you a double chin.

It also helps a lot if you have a front-facing camera on your phone so you can position yourself perfectly.
