I think 98 percent of the time im not photogenic. I have my days where out of the blue ill just take an amazing picture, but for the most part i cant do anything to look good in a picture. Its wierd because ill look in the mirror and just be so pretty, but the camera doesnt show that. My husband even noticed that. We'll take a picture, and he'll say im a lot prettier than that in real life. I cant even take pictures at angles to make me look good. Ill try taking pictures all day long and be lucky to get one good shot out of it. But its nice when my husband will keep a picture, even though i think i look ugly because he thinks im pretty no matter what.

I think we are in the same condition. I don't whether it's just my eyes or it's a fact that I don't look better in photos. Or perhaps I'm just not that good-looking in real. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

I think it all depends on the light and angles. Different people look better from different angles. My face looks 100% better head on lol. I always seem to come out better looking in pictures when I think I don't look so good or I'm like "eww my skin looks blah today", then in the picture, with or without flash my skin looks all good and people who only see my pictures always say, "Oh your skin looks so soft!" It's not a rugged terrain but it could be smoother. I can't use my boyfriend as an accurate judge of my pictures lol. He tells me I look good in everything and that every picture looks perfect. He's super sweet, even if I was covered in mud he'd say it was "bella".

Depends. If I am happy than yes, smile and relax is visible on my face. If I am tired, than I don't look good. People who look better on pictures are those who have more symmetric faces. Second factor is to look at the camera with little curiosity, kids know how to do it all the time....

Ahah! Have you seen my avatar? C'mon, you're kidding, right? Just in case you're serious, no, I am not very photogenic at all, okay!

Well! I do think that I am photogenic.I am not that beautiful really but my photographs are a bit good to what I really look.But, one thing I feel is that it is the ability of the photographer to make you look beautiful and photogenic, whatever it is in the photo, like from which angle the photo will be more beautiful,how much smile you have to put on your face, the lights which show and enhance your complexion etc etc....It is really the trick of the photographer!!!
