If you find you need a photo of yourself...
Check your background.
...and your head.
Check your hair.
I repeat, check your hair.
Moon gave it a whirl, but the lighting wasn't right, and he had to get to work. So, then K. was called in... furniture was moved, door was opened for light, closed for too much light, opened again because the light changes when you do something for a couple of hours. Different cameras were tried, cameras were adjusted (without knowledge of how to do it, just a bunch of guessing and pushing of buttons). Tempers were lost, found, controlled.
Finally an acceptable one. Sent to photo-tweaking-skilled sister, who called and said, "Could you have sent me a worse photo?!"
More playing with camera controls and lighting, advice from Blue (who tried to avoid the whole situation as much as possible).
A new photo was sent, approved enough, touched up. Another phone call. She had done what she could, she wondered about the redness in skin tone, but quickly realized that had to do with the frustration level the model was experiencing.
This model, she was difficult and hated having her photo taken. Once it was all good enough, the guys got out of the house, and she had a glass of wine for recovery purposes!
