How do you guys cope with not being photogenic?

[Adyta69]

For example, I think I look decent when I look in the mirror, but whenever someone takes a photo of me, I look absolutely wrecked.

I don't really take pictures of myself, when people take photos of me or want me in a photo I just say "Yeah sure, but I don't want to see it after"

Brutal cos I'm not even subhuman
But my psychologist who diagnosed me as ND said he would've put me as psychopath if I didn't have such low self esteem ...

So that's cool i guess

usually asymmetry is the biggest failo when looking at yourself in a photo because it reverses your face through the lens showing your assyemtry more to yourself

also acne in bad lighting just makes you look way worse then mirrors

I'm subhuman on pic

For instance these are two pictures of me with the same face angle. One was taken during an activity, and the other about a month apart while I was shitting I couldn’t find anything better

Im literally the same, but now that im growing my hair I noticed that im getting a lot better face when someone takes a picture of me, covering the ears is a good method that worked for me
