Looking better in photographs

A friend shared this on facebook and I thought it was very interesting. I hope it helps a few people enjoy getting pictures taken at all stages of your journey:

Basically:
Take pictures from slightly above
Be aware of angles
Posing can make all the difference
Colors and accessories can help or hinder
Because I think it's sad when anyone hides from the camera. My Grandma hated having her picture taken because she thought she always looked fat. Now, I wish I had more pictures of her as I remember her.
