Relax. Many people end up looking odd in photos because they freeze into odd facial expressions with a “say cheese‿ type of smile on their face. If you’re used to having bad pictures taken of yourself, you probably get nervous in front of the camera, and this can make things even worse. If you know a picture is about to be taken, take a deep breath and exhale naturally, relaxing your arms and shoulders. As you exhale, smile or strike whatever pose is appropriate. Don’t hold your breath, either in or out, otherwise you’ll appear as though you’re tense or suffocating. If you see the photo coming too late, don’t panic and try to strike a pose. Keep doing what you’re doing and try to ignore the camera. It may not turn out perfectly, but you’ve got a better chance than if the camera catches you quickly trying to change your facial expression. The more comfortable and relaxed you appear, the better the photo will turn out.
Think happy thoughts. An unnatural, forced smile can make you look stiff and, frankly, weird. When people are smiling and waiting for a photo to be snapped, their facial muscles can get caught in all sorts of strange positions. To remedy this, try to time your smile so that you don’t have to hold it for too long. Also, imagine something really funny (don’t be afraid to laugh a bit, even) or think of someone—your spouse or child, for example—who makes you happy. By doing so, you’ll get a genuine smile. If you don’t like your smile or your teeth, try a more subdued, closed- or partially-closed-mouth smile. Regardless of how you choose to smile, the happier and more relaxed you are, the better.
Smile with your eyes. Nothing projects happiness and beauty like smiling eyes: a happy, somewhat mischievous expression of the eyes. To achieve this effect, imagine that the camera is a person you have a crush on walking into the room. This will create wider open eyes and a relaxed smile. Chances are you unconsciously do this all the time; the trick is to be able to bring it out on demand, so practice the smiling eyes in front of a mirror.
Understand the value of inner beauty. There are "pretty" people in this world, and after talking to a few of them, you can begin to think that they aren't so pretty. A bad attitude towards others can make you seem really ugly inside, and make people stop paying attention to who you are on the outside. So remember that all the makeup in the world won't help if you are unhappy and nasty. Respect yourself, respect others and you will feel great.
Feel good about yourself. When you feel good, you look good. People are attracted to and feel comfortable with people who respect themselves. Liking yourself and respecting yourself doesn't mean you are conceited, it just shows others that you care about your body. A fun, light personality makes everyone comfortable. Be yourself, be warm to others, and feel great. Soon enough, others are bound to notice.

Don't worry, I feel the same way sometimes.. Sometimes my friends and family say I'm pretty, and I look in the mirror and think they're wrong. Maybe it's just how we see ourselves.. Like when the beautiful and most gorgeous girl in the school thinks shes ugly, everyone can disagree. So don't be so hard on yourself, don't worry, be happy =)

Reduce your standards and consider that there's somebody who thinks you're the most beautiful person on earth. You'll probably end up better for it.

just think of this.
God created you beautiful in his eyes, and calling youself ugly is basically dissing his creation.
if you had a good life before today, then you should have a good life after. so stop worrying. you're still beautiful.

my liscense picture is TERRIBLE. trust me when i say this. those pictures are not supposed to be cute. at all. if you have felt secure about yourself all of this time, why let one little picture bother you so much. and i bet you do have an awesome personality which negates any bad pic.
