The special type of photography needed to capture the images of pandas that are covering their eyes with their paws.
"Hey, man, you ever seen a panda covering his eyes with his paws?"
"..."
"Yeah, that's right. Me neither."
"Well, I've seen PICTURES of pandas covering their eyes with their paws"
"Yeah, but that was using super photography! You wouldn't be able to see them in real life."
"I guess you're right, as usual. Next time I'll be sure to listen to you the FIRST time."

The art of offering space, trust and time to a person, or group of people, allowing them to express themselves as they would in the privacy of their own Boudoir. The craft lies on ones ability to adapt, blend in, disappear into the shadows. Sometimes, pictures also come out of this.
Have you checked out Mr London Boudoir's work? Most people thought he is just a weird old guy, using Boudoir Photography to get women to take off their clothes. Whereas he is just a decent listener.

The practice of using camera angles and strategic cropping to alter the subject of the photograph's perceived attractiveness. When used in conjunction with photo-manipulation, it can be a potent and effective means of convincing others that this individual is not fat and/or ugly.
Optimistic Photography is seen primarily in social media, most prevalently on dating sites. A person exploiting optimistic photography will use it to extract features which are unattractive, and shift attention to those which are more attractive.
When the compounding effect of alcohol is added, the mind of the drinker can confuse the earlier (first) impression of the subject with the cold, hard, unfortunate truths of reality and fact. The optimism lurks quietly in the mind of the victim.
For educational purposes only:
1) A downward camera angle can hide the volume (and thus, mass) of a person.
2) Taking a picture of oneself (close range) will also hide the shear size and volume of the subject.
3) Elongating the jaw or using unnatural facial expressions during a photograph can give the illusion of a thinner (and leaner) face. This can, in turn, alter the perception of a person's baseline attractiveness
4) A blurry picture, bright flash, or blown out contrast can also hide blemishes or wrinkles which may appear in reality.
Note: Publishing old pictures, while misleading, does not fall under this definition, but would still be considered trickery, of which optimistic photography is a form.

Oh my god, Holly looks about 100 lbs. (45 kg.) heavier than on her Myspace. Her optimistic photography almost sent me cow tipping!
I want to shake the hand of the optimistic photographer who ironed out her beat-ass face!
My blind date must have actually thought I was blind. She looks NOTHING like her optimistic profile picture!
