The Alphabet of Photoblogging is an A-Z 26 day long series about what to look for when doing nightlife photography and what to do to get your photo taken. For the rest of the alphabet and more info click here.

Here is a trick:  If you can’t get a good photo out of someone ask them to make a funny face.  Everyone looks good when they are trying to look bad.  If someone isn’t photogenic, they will be if they have their eyes crossed and their tongue out.  They also won’t complain about how bad they look in your pictures, they will just laugh about it and make it their myspace default.  A funny face should not be compared to the “Ugly Face” which is created by motor-boating your lips while shaking your head from side to side in order to freeze the mouth in a most hilarious fashion.  While this is also a great trick for making people look awesome, it is much harder to get people to play along.
