Lighting is key
The lighting in a scene, as well as your pose, will have an impact on the quality of your photos. You can’t expect to get a nice picture of yourself in a place with bad lighting. Fortunately, photo editing apps may be used to fix this problem.
When taking a photo outside, be sure to adjust the settings on your phone’s camera app. Another trick to make these types of pictures appear appealing is to always shoot while walking forward — it makes your legs look better!
