How camera-shy are you, really?
You are not the problem in your photographs, and you probably never were.
You need a photographer who gets out of the way and shoots fast. Over-direction will actually make your pictures worse — being told where to put a shoulder interrupts something you were already doing correctly.
Ask for movement rather than poses: walking, turning, adjusting a sleeve. Ask for longer bursts and fewer resets. And ask to see the back of the camera rarely — people who are already relaxed tend to start managing their face once they see frames.
Styling, not posture. When the subject is comfortable, the pictures fail on clothing choices instead — a fussy print, a colour that fights the location, shoes that change how you stand. Bring options and decide on set.
The quiz asks 8 questions. Every answer carries a weight, and this result covers scores from 0 to 5 out of a possible 31. Landing here means your answers clustered in that band rather than at either extreme — the bands exist because the useful advice genuinely differs between them, not to flatter anyone.
The scoring happens in your browser. No answer is transmitted, stored or attached to you; the quiz simply opens the fixed page matching your band.
