How to Take a Photo at Home

  1. 1
    Find a plain white wall

    No patterns, shadows, or off-colors. A white bedsheet hung flat works as backup.

  2. 2
    Use natural daylight

    Face a window for even lighting. Avoid direct sunlight that creates harsh shadows.

  3. 3
    Position camera at eye level

    Use a tripod or have someone hold the phone. Distance 4-6 feet away.

  4. 4
    Look directly at camera

    Neutral expression, both eyes open, mouth closed. No smiling.

  5. 5
    Remove glasses and head coverings

    Unless worn daily for religious purposes.
