Why does my face look so asymmetrical in my iPhone back camera?please help
I’ve noticed something really frustrating: when I use the back camera on my iPhone (15 Pro Max), my face looks noticeably asymmetrical. Like, not just a little my eyes don’t even look like they’re on the same level. It’s honestly kind of messing with my self-image.
What’s weird is that I don’t really notice it in the mirror or even in front camera selfies (even though I know those are flipped). But the back camera? Brutal.
I’ve read that everyone has asymmetry, and that the back camera is more “accurate” than the front camera, but it still feels jarring. Is this something other people notice too? Or do cameras just exaggerate stuff that no one in real life actually sees?
Would love to hear if anyone else relates or has tips for taking photos that don’t highlight it so much. Not looking to Photoshop myself just want to feel normal in photos. My sister says it doesn’t look like you
