Got it. Are there any particular examples of the not looking good or looking too posed? Trying to learn to improve in the future. Appreciate the help!

Thanks for taking a look. These are all real. I did use a bit of faceapp (just hollywood Level 2 setting and sometimes a closed smile like you recommended in your video) Any particular issues to call out?

avilench . Hey Alex, could please take a look at these if you have a min? Got a few different opinions here, but there isn't really a consensus on which pics to use, if any.

Thanks for the clarification man, I think I'm starting to get what you mean. What about ones where you're just standing there looking straight ahead? That's something a lot of people do naturally, but whenever Alex reviews photos he always says ones like that look too posed.

Thanks for your advice man. Do you have examples of poses that look natural? A lot of the ones I see on youtube, etc are clearly posed like the touching watch pose, crossed arms, adjusting buttons, etc.

In a lot of them I tried to make it look natural by taking the pictures while walking, are you saying those also look unnatural or is it mainly the touching watch and wine glass poses?

And by "awkward" do you mean unnatural or is that a separate thing?
