So I'm wanting to create more of a social media presence, and outside of not having publication credits, my biggest obstacle is how to get/take decent pictures of myself. It seems like a lot of people's platforms involve having pictures of themselves, or at least one good profile picture, and I'm just not comfortable taking pictures of myself. I don't photograph well, and not to be self-deprecating, but I'm not exactly easy on the eyes, either. Not whining, I just know that about myself.
So, does anybody have advice on how to take a good profile picture or know what the expectations are for having pictures available? I want to get profiles set up, but I can't really do that without good pictures, and good pictures are incredibly difficult for me.
