I can't write on this because I'm yet to perfect my photogenic skills. Top tips I've used to improve my photos are:
Practise Taking Photos Everyday
Going to the bathroom? Take your phone and get a few selfies in the mirror. Going out to work or school? Take a selfie before going out. Going to parties with friends? Get some preselection and social proof by taking photos with friends. Of course no one likes looking back at photos and cringing. I'd practise taking photos on my own first though. Nothing is worse than taking a group selfie and looking hidious in it.
Get the Right Mindset
I believe your thoughts affect you a great deal. If you think you are ugly then the photo will come out ugly. Before taking a photo I make sure I'm not angry or sad. I should feel upbeat. If I'm taking a photo at home I listen to upbeat music. If I'm out with friends I should be laughing and enjoying their company before taking a photo. When you are feeling great smiling looks real and makes the photo more likable.
