Microsoft Office: How to update your photo for Teams & Outlook

Your photo in Teams is the same as Outlook (and other apps). In Teams meetings, when you do not have your camera on, this photo is shown (if you do not have a photo your initials are displayed).
When you send emails, if the recipient uses a Microsoft Office 365 account, they will see your photo (or initials). This should probably be a professional-looking photo rather than a silly casual one.
