People who think they don’t photograph well have nobody to blame other than themselves. There is an art to looking good in front of the camera. That is why models are told to practice their poses in front of a mirror. Practice makes perfect.
The queen was the most beautiful woman in all the land, and very proud of her beauty. She had a mirror, which she stood in front of every morning, and asked:
Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?
And the mirror always said:
You, my queen, are fairest of all.
And then she knew for certain that no one in the world was more beautiful than she.
