2. Put your tongue behind your teeth and smile, which will relax your face.

3. Keep your arms by your side—but not glued there. To look natural, they should be a little away from your body.

4. Test-drive clothing against a white wall, with an indirect, natural light source (under a tree, indoors near a window)—it will show whether blue really is your best color.

5. As a rule, avoid patterns.

6. Photos exaggerate everything, so go easy on the makeup. For women under 30, a little mascara and lip gloss; over 30, add a touch of concealer.

7. Practice the classic model pose: Turn your body three quarters of the way toward the camera, with one foot in front of the other and one shoulder closer to the photographer. When you face forward, your body tends to look wider.

8. For standing photos, belly in, buttocks tight, shoulders back, spine straight.

9. Study photogenic people as well as photos in which you think you looked best. Look at your best angle. You’ll probably see that you were laughing or having a good time. Capturing someone when they’re relaxed or most animated usually makes for the best results.

10. To feel at ease, try closing your eyes, then opening them slowly just before the photo is taken.

1.双眼注视相机镜头略偏上方的位置，脸略向前伸，同时下巴转向下方。

2.轻松自然地微笑并不难—只需微笑的同时将舌头收于牙齿之后就OK了（译者注：确切地讲，应当是上牙根之后）。

3.将手臂置于身体两侧但不要紧贴身体，与身体分开一些看上去更自然。

4.在非直射的自然光下（如树下或室内靠近窗户的地方），白色墙壁前试穿衣服。这样可以显示：对你来说，蓝色是不是最好的颜色。

5.记住，不要穿带图案的衣服。

6.照片会使事物看上去比实际情况更夸张一些，因此化妆要适度。30岁以下女性，涂些睫毛膏和口红即可；30岁以上的妇女，可用少许遮瑕霜。

7.练习经典的模特造型，即：将身体的3/4转向照相机，一条腿放在另外一条腿前面，使一侧肩部靠近摄影师。而假如你的脸朝向正前方时，身体就显得不那么“苗条”。

8.站着拍照时，应当收腹，肩向后伸，挺直腰背。

9.向那些“上相”的人和你认为自己最“上相”的照片学习。想想你展现出最好的一面的时候，当时可能正在大笑或非常开心—在人们最放松，或最有活力的时候拍照，往往能得到最好的照片。

10.放松自己—试试先闭住眼睛，直到拍照前再慢慢睁开。
