   Psychologists have long found that this fear is almost primitive. In the era of the first cameras, many people were very superstitious.
   
   
   
   Many researchers of the human psyche believe that it is for this reason that a person cannot fully relax in front of the camera. As soon as he sees that he is being photographed, relaxation immediately gives way to tension and stiffness.
   
   
   
   
   
   Some people still believe that the photo can be manipulated by the person. This is, of course, a completely absurd opinion.
   
   
2. Personal space
   But this reason is much more justified and relevant in our time. We are often photographed without even asking permission.
   
   
   
   For many people, the very process of photographing is associated with aggression towards them and invasion of personal space. In such cases, people can deliberately crook or even cover their face with their hands.

   Someone turns out better in staged photos, and someone prefers natural relaxed poses. A lot depends on the photographer, his charisma and the attitude of the model.
   
   
   
   If you don’t trust the person who is photographing you, it will definitely affect the photo. Most likely, you will not be able to relax, the posture will be constrained, and the face tense.
   
   
   
   
   
   If you have difficulty in revealing yourself to a stranger, try to take photos only from people you really trust.

   People look much better in motion, because that's when a holistic picture can be created. But a photograph is only one frame in which there are too many factors that can be spoiled: light, posture, placement of surrounding objects.
   
   
   
   Moreover, we are used to seeing our reflection in the mirror, the mirror view of our body and face. In the photo, we see ourselves as others see us. This image is unusual for us. But remember that people around us always see us that way. And they still accept and love us.
   
   

Do not be afraid to take pictures, but it is logical not to want to do it when you are not in the mood or do not look good enough. You have the right to ask a person not to take snapshots or take a picture of you exactly the way you want.

You will definitely like yourself in the photo if you can relax and love the features of your appearance!
