I can see how it might be easier with more traditional cameras since you usually know when you're getting your picture taken, whereas you never really know with smartphones.
This really resonates as someone who without fail at family gatherings would get punched in the arm and told to "smile in this one." At least most of those events were pre-smartphone, so I didn't have to pose for several consecutive rounds of photos, one for each person's camera roll (or, god forbid, Insta!)...
What I've found though is that I enjoy posing for Polaroids - the image quality is always so fuzzy that you can't *really* look bad in them, IMO.
