A photo session is a great opportunity not only to choose a beautiful userpic for a social network, but also to see yourself in a completely new way. But in which one - you will have to think carefully about it so as not to waste the photographer's money and time.
Instructions
Step 1
The choice of the image will directly depend on the format of the future photo shoot. Who will photograph you? Is your friend an aspiring photographer with a semi-professional camera or a photography master from an expensive studio? In the first case, as a rule, it is you who order the "music": with a friend you can agree to shoot where you want and on your terms, but with a venerable photographer, most likely, it will not work. He himself will select the best image and location for you to shoot. But in the second case, the hit will be one hundred percent, but in the first case, the image may turn out to be not very successful.
In any case, consult with your photographer for the choice of an image. If this is not the first time he has been shooting, he will probably tell you something sensible.
Step 2
Remember what images have always attracted you. Perhaps you have always liked one of the literary or film characters or actors. Maybe you have long wanted to try on someone's image. Movies, magazines, and books can be great sources of inspiration.
Step 3
Based on the features of your appearance. Of course, no one will forbid a blue-eyed blonde to transform into a gypsy, and a girl with acid hair color and numerous piercings - into a business woman, but how harmonious will it look? However, photo shoots are good because they allow you to see yourself in a new light, so try experimenting with unexpected images.
Step 4
Typically, the photographer will ask the model to bring costumes, props, and jewelry with them, so try to push away from what you have. Have a nice retro dress? It can form the basis of your image. Or maybe somewhere a suit with ethnic motives and a few baubles from a floss are lying around? You can try on the image of a hippie.
Step 5
If you still can't come up with an image, try to consult with your friends and acquaintances. Perhaps one of them has long wanted to see you in a certain way. It is possible that you will learn a lot about them and about yourself.
By the way, there are also special photo forums where people post their photos and ask others to help them choose an image. Try to write to a similar forum.
