As a photographer one of the most common phrases I hear is “I never look good in photos” or “no-one can take a good photograph of me” or some other variation. I wish I had a pound for every time I heard that!

I find it really sad that people feel that way as everyone can look good in a photograph. I usually say that it isn’t the person that doesn’t look good in a portrait or photograph but that the photographer hasn’t done a good job. In all fairness most people are referring to the photos that their family and friends take. You know the ones, there you are enjoying yourself and relaxing when you hear someone calling your name and saying “smile for the camera”. If you are anything like me, you will feel like a rabbit caught in the headlights – no wonder you don’t like how you look in the photograph!

There are lots of little things that you can do which make the world of difference to how you look in a photograph. When I am photographing clients I use these little tips and tricks all the time, even if they do not realise what I am doing or why. A few little adjustments to the way you are standing can take pounds off a person .

I have teamed up with the fabulous Number 95 in Dundee to create a day which is perfect for anyone who wants to be able to look at a photograph of themselves and feel “I love how I look in that photo”. On Saturday September 10th I will be sharing the tips and tricks I use when photographing my clients to help you feel more comfortable in front of the camera before putting it all into practice and photographing you. In addition you will receive personalised advice from our make up artist and some pampering treatments from Number 95 to make you feel good.

If you would like to know more about this fabulous day, or know someone who this would be perfect for then please call the studio on 01241 815666 or visit the website now How To Look Good In Photos. Places are limited to just 6 so that we can make sure you get the most from this informative day.

And because every blog post by a photographer should have a photograph, here is a photograph from a recent destination wedding in Madrid which I will be writing about soon.
