How to take a good-looking ID photo?

I don't need to elaborate on the requirements and restrictions for taking ID cards here. It's almost the same everywhere, except that makeup is not allowed, boys can't have long hair, girls have to tie their hair up and so on.

Let's take a look at the following artifacts-props that may be needed in photography. Yes, the props you see are all men and women, and photographers are usually part-time (let's call them photographers, you know).

Dark clothes (usually shirts), hair clips, gel water, glasses without lenses (to prevent reflection when shooting) and so on.

Wear a dark coat:

If you can, you should know the color of the background curtain before you apply for an ID card (the background cloth of the ID card photo is usually white), so you should be prepared to wear a coat with the right color (for example, you must wear a dark coat on the white background cloth, and theoretically you can wear a suit), because the clothes prepared at the shooting location are really not good-looking.

Sitting naked normally:

Keep your sitting posture straight and your head straight when shooting (this photographer will usually guide you to correct it). Boys don't dye their hair, but keep their hair long. Generally speaking, men and women are not allowed to wear makeup, but it is suggested that girls can apply a little BB cream and make a nude dress or something.

Wear bright pants:

Wear a pair of white trousers or prepare a white towel to put on your legs (bright colors are also acceptable), because the reflection of light will make your face smaller and your eyes clearer and brighter.

Stretch your neck and lower your head:

Straighten your back, move your neck forward naturally relative to your torso, and lower your head slightly. Keep your eyes on the front naturally, and don't squint (friends who wear glasses had better bring their own glasses without lenses, because the glasses prepared at the shooting place are only a little better than reading glasses).

Look at the top of the camera:

After many times of verification, it is found that if you look up at the camera lens when shooting, the effect is rarely satisfactory. Therefore, it is suggested that you can look 2~5 cm above the lens when shooting, so the effect is much better than that of head-up, and the eyes are more magical. Friends with inner eyes can even see inner eyes (generally, you can't see double eyelids in photos taken by inner double-headed cameras)

The corners of the mouth slightly:

In order not to make the photos look serious like crying, we can draw some smiling expressions in front of the mirror. If the expression is really stiff, it is suggested that the corners of your mouth rise slightly (eggplant ...), so that the effect will not be rigid (of course, don't rise too much, or your mouth will be crooked)

Keep a good mood:

We need to keep an optimistic and open-minded attitude in everything, not to mention taking pictures of facial expressions. Although the corners of the mouth may look good, it will only be better to have a good mood.

One more time:

If you are not satisfied with the shooting effect after watching it, if the photographer is flexible or conditions permit, you can ask the photographer to shoot again: "If I can shoot again, I will definitely pose" _ Two chances should be enough. Of course, it is not ruled out that patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder will directly tear up the card and go to the "office" to shoot again. Ha ha.
