The problem of taking pictures in the mirror

If you raise the camera to your face and look at the camera with your eyes to take pictures, your face will definitely be obscured in the mirror. There are three ways to take a full face photo:

1. Ask others to help you take the photo.

2. Take blind photos by yourself. In your example photo, it is also very good to take blind photos of the portrait in the mirror.

3. Side selfie. The specific method is to place the camera at a 45-degree angle to the side, rest it on stacked chairs, desktops, books, etc., and select the delayed timed selfie mode. When taking a selfie, appropriately adjust the shooting angle and the distance between the person and the mirror to create two symmetrical portraits.

There is an alternative:

Take a mirror photo and a portrait photo separately, and then use software tools such as computer Photoshop to combine them.
