A bad photo is one moment from one angle. It’s a snapshot, not a sentence.

Cameras take a thousandth of a second from one fixed position in whatever light was going, often mid-blink or mid-word. Nobody has ever looked at a face that way, including the people who love yours. It is a sample too small and too strange to be evidence about anything. Yet it gets treated as the honest version while the mirror gets dismissed as flattery.

Delete the ones you hate and move on inside a minute. Then make the test whether the people in the picture were having a good time, not whether your jaw behaved.
