Get a Natural Smile for Photos by Saying Words that End in ?Uh?

When smiling for a photo, avoid the urge to say "cheese." The word actually stretches your mouth into an unnatural, unflattering smile. Instead, if you have a hard time smiling naturally, say words that end in "uh," like "mocha" or "yoga" to bring the corners of your mouth up naturally.

The video above is a little cringe-worthy, but the tips themselves are sound. Words that bring your mouth into a natural smile are better if you have a hard time smiling for an impromptu photo. If that doesn't work for you, try to think of something funny. A laughing smile is almost always a better looking one than a staged or forced one, so it's a good option.

Of course, smiles are only part of a good photo. Knowing how genuine facial expressions feel goes a long way towards looking great in photos, but we have some other tips to help with that too.
