Make close-ups. Closeups are great for showing detail. However, they can look fake if you don't have good eyes. Pay close attention and observe the noses, eyes, and mouths. Do you see anything strange? Is it possible that someone is wearing glasses? Are there freckles across her nose? These things add depth to a person's appearance.
