When you’re taking pictures of yourself, don’t use a mirror, it’ll double the dirt and distort you. Just put your phone on a little tripod (very cheap) at waist level roughly 6 feet away, and use the self-timer. Try not to go any lower, that’s how you look like a giant with a chin. Too high above you, and you can look like you have a massive had, and a small body.
Face the light source, not away from it, and diffuse lighting is generally better.
There’s loads of posing guides out their, generally just try to get your whole body standing up. Maybe hit THE POSE.
Oops, forgot to hit post when I first finished, no matter.

People talking about “lgbt” people but then only talking about gays is a new pet peeve of mine.
Was watching a video that promised to talk about how life is for lgbt people but only talked about gay marriage and that in most areas kissing/handholding would be fine. WHAT ABOUT TRANS HEALTHCARE? WHAT ABOUT ID? WHAT ABOUT LEGAL PROTECTIONS, ANY FUCKIN THING ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE?? How can you say “lgbt” but only talk about cis gays? Everything even “lgbt” has to revolve around cis people and their concerns.
And like those topics are important, whatever, but like as a gay I will say marriage and pda are not high on my list of worries and issues. Being able to smooch another girl is great but being able to fix this shitbox is way more so.
