Tips for better capturing of smiles
  1. Do not cover the eyes with the bangs. Do not obscure the face by hat, masks, sunglasses, etc.

  1. Try to orient the face in front of the camera and be as level as possible. Keep the eyes narrowed.

  1. Give a clear smile with an open mouth. The smile is easier to detect when the teeth are shown.
