How to take a good photo at home

Stand about 1.5 m from a plain, light wall in daylight or with lamps on both sides to avoid shadows. Have someone take the photo at eye level with the phone held upright. Neutral expression, mouth closed, eyes open, no glasses, hat or filters. Then upload it here and drag the dashed oval over your head.
