Mobile Photographer Tip of the Day: When taking pictures of yourself in a mirror. Turn your phone around so that the lens is facing you, not the mirror. Use the mirror to view your image. Now you don't have the annoying camera phone in the pic. Oh and look at the camera not the mirror! Simple as that... Smartphone users can also download the photoshop mobile app to make minor effects on your pics.
So, now there are no excuses. Unless you just really like the effect of having a phone in your face or a big flash of light reflecting off of the mirror. Hopefully this will help release the inner photographer in all of you.
I decided to take a couple of example photos for those of you that are visual learners. Hopefully you can use these pics as an example and look past the fact that I'm in a bathroom taking pictures of myself. To the right, you see the typical camera phone pose (look familiar?) facing the mirror looking at the screen to make sure I'm aiming correctly. Below, is my suggested way to take it so that the subject of the photograph is front and center without distraction.
