I can't smile for photos?

At any point I can smile well until I look in the mirror or a picture is being taken of me. This is making me mega annoyed and I hate it sooooo much as I look like a phyco in every photo. :'(

    Think lovingly of your significant other or something that makes you happy and you will smile. Just keep that thought while your picture is being taken and maybe you won't look like a psycho. Practice in front of a mirror until it comes naturally when you "think happy thoughts".

    You have to make the change, no one can do it for you. If you have a joke or a funny situation that makes you laugh, think of it in front of the mirror and see what happens. If nothing happens then maybe you have self-esteem issues about your looks.

    Go into a dollar store. Buy a hand held 2" mirror. Bring it with you to photo shoots. Smile into the mirror. Hold on to the smile. Wait for your pic to be shot. You got yourself a smilin' face!

    So look elsewhere while smiling. I've been doing a lot of groupies and I've seen one or two look up, look left, look right, look just above the lens, look down on my zipper, look at a passerby, look anywhere else but me. They look looney when you see everyone else was looking at the lens but I guess that was the effect they were trying to get anyway. Just nail the smile and everything will be fine.
