Photo shoot tips?
Sit in front of the mirror to achieve the correct facial expressions.
1a) Put your lips together and don’t move them. Look at your face in the mirror concentrate on the eyes… they are lifeless… now lift up the corners of your mouth and watch your eyes come alive.
1b) This gives you a natural casual look, which should be used at all times to give that pleasant look to the face.
1c) To create a smile say ‘MMM’, without opening your mouth, no teeth should be showing, don’t forget to turn the corners of your mouth up.
1d) To create the broader smile with your mouth still closed try ‘MMM’ again, don’t forget to turn the lips up at the corners of the mouth.
2a) This time say ‘ME’ open your mouth and show your teeth but keep it soft without a smile.
2b) Say ‘MEEE’ again, this time with a big smile showing all your teeth.
3a) Now with ‘HEY’ this is a very natural facial expression. Say ‘HEY’ and hold it – you will notice your tongue is coming forward ad the lips are apart.
3b) Now try it again saying ‘HEY’ with a smiling expression.
4) To create the gaunt look; by pronouncing the word ‘POOR’ keeping the lips very soft and sultry holding for a few seconds.
5) To achieve an open and happy laugh try saying the word ‘HAA’ not forgetting to concentrate the eyes on someone or something to avoid the lifeless look.
Relax and have fun!
