Take a good selfie
Updated July 23, 2026
Your selfie does one thing only: it spots your face among the event photos. It isn't posted, shared, or kept for long.
What works well
- Your face straight on, fully inside the frame.
- Decent light, ideally in front of you.
- Your eyes visible.
What gets in the way
- A side or sharp three-quarter angle.
- Backlight, or a very dark room.
- Sunglasses, a mask, or a hand in front of your face.
- A group photo: take the selfie of just yourself.
- A blurry photo, or one taken from far away.
Tip: if you wore glasses or a hat at the event, take your selfie in the same look. It'll match more reliably.
