Question

i dont know. when i look in the mirror i see someone ok but when i see pictures of myself i dont think i really look like that??

so should i trust what I see in the mirror or what I see in pictures?

Answer 1

mirror. definately.
a lot of people arent very photogenic so pictures always look bad.
if youve noticed, if you take a picture of your friend, then that isnt neccessarily what they look like in person.

Answer 2

mirrors only show the front angle.
using other mirrors to be able to get to see the side, back, mess up the image you see subconsciously. It confuses the brain.

photographs can be greatly effected by quality of picture, lighting and perspective.
Lighting is the worse culprit.

I prefer video, stable and with the correct lighting and at the correct angles.

that way you can be free to move how ever you want, even spin around for an all angle inspection.
facial expressions and body movement can be analyzed too.
I use it to practice for speeches in my speech class.
