Hair is a big part of the "emo" look. There are many emo-looking hair styles to choose from. Contrary to popular belief, not every emo has short, black, choppy hair (although this screams emo). Some of your abundant style choices include:
For girls - Long-ish hair, with abundant layers and even bangs, possibly chunks of bleached-blond sections and other colors, or dyed black.
A classic short bob, with or without bangs, black, dark brown, or platinum blond.
Pink/black layered hair for girls is becoming popular. The top layer is usually cut pretty short and is made to stick out, spiked in a sense. You can even tease your hair.
Boys or girls - The classic black and short hair is better worn with long side-swept fringe(bangs)that can cover one eye. It especially looks good when the back is teased up with hair gel.
Think outside the box. Emo has its roots in the punk scene, and isn't just limited to black. Hair can be dark brown, black, blond, or any color you want -- as long as the cut is expressive of a punk rock culture and has a little a-la-emo flare. Wear super girly hair barrettes, bandannas, ribbons. It's up to you!
Add random barrettes and bows to your hair.
Makeup
Do not go too extreme on the makeup; you might be considered a poser.
Applying lots and lots of eyeliner is an emo thing. All over the eyelids, under the eyes a little too. This is not a good look for adults, and less eyeliner should be applied when at school or work, or where 'scene' kids won't be abundant. Avoid looking like someone punched you.
The emo look usually includes being as pale as your natural skin tone will allow, so get a whitening foundation of a super light powder. This isn't extremely important so don't go overboard with this.
Dark nail polish for girls is recommended. Black is normal but other colors such as dark green, dark purple, or even black and white stripes could work.
Clothes
Clothes make a huge statement.
Notice the girl's wearing skinny jeans.Black/Navy skinny jeans or opt for boot cuts.

If you have to ask this question, you are not emo so I think its best if you just be yourself.
But if you really want to...
lots of eye makeup, a little hair placed strategically on the face... take the picture from an angle by holding the camera above your head so that your eyes dominate the photo....its all about the eyes... black or pink hair could help but if you are emo you will already have the wardrobe and hair style that you need.
Be yourself sweetheart. (its generally the hottest self you can be) ;)

try to comb your hair to one side over your eyes put on heavy eyeliner and dont smile. Try to wear dark clothes as well.
I guess puttin a razor by your wrist would help. Add charater to the pic.

is this for a picture?
well for the eyeliner you want to start with a little and put it right on the top of the lid of your eye, then blink a little, then put more and more on always on the top of the bottom lid.

not smiling, think of something sad and put your bangs over one eye. Also wear tight clothes.
