  1. Thank you! The right angle piece was great! Could you also give us (me!) some tips on the best way to smile, tilt my head, and where to focus my eyes?

    1. I would choose your favorite smile, tilt your head so its away from the camera and to the side, so your jaw line is smoothed and straightened by the effect of the tilt. And I’d focus your eyes on the camera dot on the phone. Hope this helps!

  2. Thanks, this was great! Now, if only my iPad weren’t so big–it really gets in the way! And my digital camera flashes, so that’s all I see when taking a mirror selfie… Suggestions?

  3. Loved this fun quirky video! And super useful too 🙂 Even though it might seem trivial, being good at taking nice selfies is important! 😉

  4. Super helpful! And I’m going to get myself a selfie stick lol. Thanks for another great video! 🙂

  5. What a f un way to start the day! Thank you for this Jaleah & Carol! I did not know I could use the volume keys to click a pic! Whoo hoo that will make it sooo much easier. LOVE the tips on how to get good selfies because Im not so good at it. Now Im going to practice!

  6. FYI…you may need to go into your camera settings to make the volume key the camera key instead of the zoom key. I had to make that change on my Samsung Galaxy 4 phone.

  7. Since watching this video many months ago I have taken a selfie of myself at least once a day. I had never taken one before. Thanks Jaleah and Carol for my new hobby….ME!

  8. I had no idea this video was here — not sure how I missed it in my early DYT binge watching days! LOL I had no idea about the side buttons working the camera! Yay! Can’t wait to try it out!

  9. I didn’t know about the zoom in part… I ended up just cropping out the background… Thanks for the tips! Great video!!!

  10. someone on our facebook group shared this with me. This is Great!!!! Thank you, and I am going on amazon to order the stick.
