When I was a lad, cameras were expensive and difficult to use. (Black and white films only, you had to load and unload them in the dark, remember to wind on the film after each shot, take photos with no focusing aids………..). Small wonder then, that it took a camera competent photographer to produce anything approaching a decent photograph.

No matter how photogenic you were, uncle Fred’s photos were going to be pretty naff anyway. There were no computers and no internet. There was therefore no danger of finding photographs of yourself posted on websites or publically accessible photo albums such as Photobox, Pixmania, Kodak etc etc.

Technology has changed all that. Relatively inexpensive point and shoot pocket digital cameras can produce technically good photographs without any know-how being necessary on the part of the photographer. Once taken those photos can be uploaded onto computer and made available to a host of people via email, websites, blogs and commercial album sites.

So if you want to look good in all those photos that your friends and relatives are going to take (and then distribute to all and sundry), maybe you should take some positive action to make yourself more photogenic. It really isn’t difficult to look better in photographs. You just need a little practice.
