Whether you recognize it or not, there is alot of wisdom in that picture. We strive for technical perfection and artistry in our photos, yet at times we forget that all our subject wants is to look good. :)

this makes me laugh because one my friends asked to model for me. but....

I'm sorry but people like attractiveness, and if i'm going to get somewhere i'll probably have a much better chance getting recognized with a good hot babe photo over a 'helga' or 'olaf'.

Some people require more work than others...
The photogenic people can do anything in front of a camera and look good, but most people you need to find the right angle and work harder because they are either not as photogenic, or not at ease in front of a camera, and it will show in their eyes or tight smile :p
