Use your cell phone

You probably have a new generation smart phone, but if not, a phone with a camera that you can install Instagram on will do just fine.

Download and install Instagram

You’re familiar with it, right? It’s free and is available for Android phones and iPhones. In fact, you can probably skip this step because you already have it installed and use it daily.

Open Instagram and register

This is another step you can skip if you’re already an Instagram user. If you’re a first-time user, enter a user name and password or begin your session with Facebook.

Click on the icon

To activate your cell phone camera, click on the icon in the center: the square with the circle inside it.

Take your photo

The moment of truth has come. Before clicking on the big blue button, bear the following in mind: Hold your cell phone at a distance where your whole face fits in the viewfinder.

Look straight at the camera.

Take your photo during the day to ensure good light.

Stand one step in front of a white wall.

Make sure the light comes from the side, not from behind or in front of you.

Don’t use a flash.

We don’t want photos like these: These are classic mistakes. If your photo comes out like one of these, please take another one.

At night in poor light

Out of focus

Taken very close up or with part of the face off frame

With flash

Backlit

Against a non-white background

We want a photo like this:

This is the photo of you we want. If the one you’ve just taken came out like this, move on to the next step.
