Anyone else suck at getting their picture taken???

Just looked at some headshot proofs. I have an admittedly goofy smile, super cheesey with a big ass lopsided grin. Its fine when I'm chillin with friends, its just how I look. Though, its probably not what I want on linkedin/company website. Anyone else feel the same way?

Totally normal. The trick to being more photogenic is practicing lol. Def not trying to be that guy but IME girls look wayyyyyyy better in pics than they actually do because they just take selfies all the time and know proper angles and stuff. Also keep in mind photos from a professional camera or rear view iphone (group pics) are reversed and you're used to seeing your image in the mirror or non-reverse if that makes sense just know it's the same exact thing. 

 

Completely normal, agree with everything the first guy said. Getting good at getting your picture taken is a skill.
