The key to avoiding a frozen stare
Clearly there's a difference between being snapped at a bar between shots of Jaeger Meister and posing for dozens of portraits at your sister's wedding.
"If you 're going someplace and you 're going to be photographed a lot don't hold the smile for multiple photos -- let it go and then start again with a fresh smile," cautions Quillian. If you don't, "by the second or third snap you'll end up with a frozen look."
Quillian also thinks that people shouldn't be shy about rearranging a shot. "If someone asks you to pose with a group and you prefer to be on the left side, go ahead and ask people to scooch -- whatever makes you comfortable -- remember, a photo lasts forever."

I am so glad to find out that practicing for photos is an option. I usually hate my pictures and it almost always boils down to the angles! Thanks for the tips.

I think it's great to want to look your best, but I feel like we overthink photos these days. When you're having a good time, it'll show in a picture. But anytime anyone pulls out camera, people get overly concerned about how terrible they think they look and then worry about it being posted on facebook. It's too bad.
