As a matter of fact, when I was getting ready for my last show, my posing coach had been taking pics 3 months out and all the way up to the day before the show. When he finally gave me the CD he apologized at how bad the pics were. No definition at all, I looked flat and small. It dosen't help that I do not tan what so ever. Pro tan and dream tan takes care of that for me for the shows. So I am quite pale. I know that there must be some certain tricks to doing the pics correctly. I have seen guys 30lbs lighter than me take pics (jsut as pale as me) and they look lean and pretty big. You see guys like that on bodyspace all the time, 5'10 at 150 and they look great. Does anyone have some good pointers for me. I am going to start taking pics next week. I appreciate any help.
