Problem
Many people feel uncomfortable or awkward in front of the camera and struggle with knowing how to pose, what to do with their hands, or how to direct the person taking their photo. This often results in photos they are unhappy with, leading to frustration and avoidance of being photographed.
Solution
Photogenik provides a personal photo-coach app that guides users through a complete shoot from start to finish. The app delivers real-time voice instructions to both the subject and the photographer, offering a library of 350+ tailored poses to improve composition and confidence. After the session, the Best Shots feature automatically sorts images into "post," "keep," and "delete" categories, providing a reason for each selection to streamline the sharing and editing process. The app also includes editing tools that let users apply looks without making photos appear overly edited.
Target Audience
Primary users are individuals who want to improve their personal photos, including people who feel awkward in front of the camera, as well as those who take photos of others and want to capture better shots.
