Hey, I was wondering if anyone could recommend any useful books that can help me understand fundamentals of being more photogenic. I was looking at books like “The Photographer’s Guide to Posing: Techniques to Flatter Everyone” which may well be what I’m looking for, but it occurred to me that photography posing and just taking photos in daily life to share on Facebook, instagram might be a different game and have a different book more well suited for it. This one is a like 50 bucks and I don’t mind buying it but I thought it would be worth asking some feedback or better suggestions here first. Cheers

    This may sound odd, but the posing guides these days and so are mostly a total waist of time. Go look and people and styles in the 20’s to lets say the 60’s and how people carried themselves. Those are GOLD and work so so well. Search for photos of that time period, trust me worth a look…
