Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

-No peace signs/ gang signs so good job already realizing that!.
- No puffy lips
- DONT cross your arms
- Don't try and act like a gangster
- Don't be stupid

These are tips to stay away from the mainstream myspace photos that look horrible

You want good lighting, nothing too dark or bright!. Cloudy days are the greatest!.

Go light on makeup as the flash really brings it out!.
Dont wear anything extremely revealing as people will get the wrong idea!.

Have someone else take the picture as you don't want your arm outstretched in the photo!. also don't look at the camera focus on something behind it or to the side!.

Work on your smile as you want to appear like your smiling, but showing too much teeth looks like your at a dentist!.

Hi Crystal

The best tip is to be yourself, no pretending, no borrowing of others traits and whatever!. You have to find your own personality and each model has something distinct about themself!. Some look sexy, some look bad, some look naughty, some look provocative!. it all boils down to this!.
As for facial traits, most models nevel smle and have an attitude BUT, it suits them!. Some will smile but it depends on what they are selling!. Are they selling their smile because of white teeth products, their eyes because of eyeliners, their lips because of some new products , their legs because of stockings etc!.!.et c!.!.!.etc!.!.!.

The cleavage is not for you to decidde!. A good photography will know exactly what poses is good for what he is trying to sell!. Camera angles are important because their is a good and bad side to every face!. Once we know, we always take that side of the face!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
