How to make good photos for the Russian speaking woman

How to make good photos for the Russian speaking woman. The lighting of the photo is important. Avoid bright sunlight on your face. This causes you to squint your eyes and makes harsh shadows. I choose a location where there is indirect light. For example where sunlight is shining on a light colored surface for the source of light. Your eyes are the window of your soul. How can I see your soul if your eyes are mostly closed to avoid the sun? The background is important. I choose a background that has an even pattern that won't distract from your face. Bring the camera close to yourself or use a zoom setting on the camera so that YOU are the subject of the photo. Try to avoid a photo which as an interesting subject and you are very small in the photo. Remember that you are communicating with the viewer through the camera. Be natural. The best photo that was taken of me, was taken with a telephoto lens when I was talking so someone and I did not know that the photo was being taken. Choose a subject that invites the viewer to join you in doing something that you like to do. My friend, Svitlana had a photo on her profile. She is standing behind a delicious meal. She appears to be saying, "Come and have this meal with me." I suggest that you refrain from trying to appear sexy. Sex in a photo is like garlic in a salad. A little bit will go a long way!
