yeah... its a fact... if we look at the mirror and take a snap we looks lot difffrent in the image. sometimes look horrible.this is common. the secret is the exposure of the light. just put that pic in a image editor like photoshop and increase the brighness and contrast .

Alot of people aren't photogenic, dear. Myself included.

When i take pictures to send to family (of myself in a mirror) or friends, I can never take one I'm happy with. But my family is happy to see me regardless. You're embarrassed by your senior picture? The nerve... you know how hard you worked and busted your ass? for nearly 13 years!! Now your complaining about a picture. Step back, and take a look at what you've done, and what you have. Not at what you dont

I just look in the yearbook and see perfect, beautiful pictures of the girls and I feel so disgusting. Why can't I take 1 good picture? This is my last year and I can't even look good for my yearbook picture. My last yearbook picture. Yes, I worked hard to get to this point in my life, but still...it's the little things people notice, the little things people hold against you. People will look at me in the yearbook and go away to college with that picture, knowing that I couldn't even take 1 photo that made me look pretty or normal. I don't get it.

Thank you though, Zach, for your kind words . I appreciate it.

Lets not be nasty, that really wasn't a helpful comment.

You think those girls like what they see either? you have to look at yourself every day. There will ALWAYS be someone better looking, no matter how pretty you get. Not just for you, for everyone. You're never going to be the best at anything, and you might as well accept it.

And people will always hold things against you. Those people are insecure assholes who can't handle their own insecurities.

Just hold ur head high on ur shoulders and you'll be a beautiful person to everyone.

Don't be so harsh on yourself :l I'm sure it came out great!

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure we're all like that. I, for one, HATE having my picture taken, even though (as I've been told) I'm pretty good looking in person.
