When Going to the Photographers.
Don’t wear black. It gives a hard, dense tone. Don't smile unless it comes naturally, or the result will be annoying. Don't expect to get a photograph that will please you if vou are fatigued when sitting. Don't be afraid of wearing lace. The line between llesh and dress will be softened by it. Don’t take a full-face picture if the nose is crooked or the eyes weak. Try a three-quarter view. Don’t choose a day when the sunshine is very bright, or every imperfection will lie developed. A well-lighted, cloudy dav is best.
