Answer 9

It depends on where on your reflection you're looking, and how close you stand to the mirror.  

For example, when you look at your feet or your legs while standing close to a full length mirror, you're seeing them at a steep angle.    

A camera that was setup to take a full length picture of you would likely be set back further at an elevation of approximately your midsection.     Such a picture would represent you with much less "vanishing point" distortion.

A photographer could, however, shoot a picture of you from a high angle, and depending on the focal length of the lens, produce an image that makes your head and shoulders appear much larger than your hips and legs.   Or conversely, from a low angle that would probably not be flattering to most women, especially those who obsess about the size of their butts, real or imagined.
