Hi everyone,

I have been shortlisted to win a brilliant prize. They have asked me to send in a photo of myself, so I assume the picture will be the deciding factor.

Has anyone had to do this before and won? I am wondering what type of photo people normally send in...a natural one, really posed, dressed up, dressed down, head shot, full body shot etc etc

    I would try to pick a photo based on the company and prize. For example if it was for Fat Face then I would have a welly boot/outdoors shot. Band/music then maybe at a gig or festival. That type of thing I suppose?

    Lol Claire...I had to read you post twice as for some reason my mind replaced the word film for something rather rude!

    Thanks for the advice Brown. This is why I am finding it hard; I don't really fit the demographic of the brand :(

    I think I will just send off a happy face picture and hope for the best x
