Anyone ele hate taking pictures?
« on: May 26, 2015, 09:34:20 pm »
I'm not photogenic.  I consider myself below average in looks so I don't really enjoy seeing myself in pictures.  I wouldn't be caught dead taking selfies.  Some of my coworkers just love taking pics of themselves.  I don't, never have.

Confidence, purpose and reason, are some of the tools that contribute to picture taking. It's never entirely about looks e.g. most women spend the entire morning getting ready, making sure they look their best. Yet they wait for someone else to tell them they look good.
By patting yourself on the back you will begin to attract the type of attention that you desire.
Take a few pics for you, and go crazy, have fun doing it. Rather than focusing on the looks that you don't like focus on the experience, how much fun you had. Best regards

Only if I feel really pretty.  Otherwise I'm like "please don't."  (Also hate taking selfies.)

I don't like to have pictures taken of myself, and I certainly don't take selfies! I do like photography though, and I like taking pictures of nature and outdoor scenes.

It depends on the day as to whether or not I'm in the mood for a picture.  I like to occasionally take some, just so I have some to look back on.  I don't take very many selfies, and when I do, it takes a few for me to get it to look right.

I very rarely take selfies. I have to feel particularly good that day to do it. I've always hated having my picture taken. I find it incredibly awkward to stand/sit there and hold a pose while someone takes a picture. I don't think I'm very photogenic either.

I am not crazy about taking pictures of me, but later on I do love looking back at whatever the occasion was. So I  guess it is win win whether I like it or not.  Selfies seem like a big waste of time.

I've found that if I'm feeling particularly pretty that day, I won't take a selfie, because it never comes out looking how I feel. No point in dampening my confidence once it peeks its head out.

I take pictures when I feel strong and confident.

I do not mind taking pictures, it is a way you and all of your loved ones can share memories of the great things and places you have been.

Love taking pictures of my children, but selfies I feel like I don't look good enough to do selfies or take pictures of myself, just don't have that confidence like I use to.

I don't like to have my picture taken now that I'm older and 20 lbs heavier lol.  I didn't mind too bad when I was young and shapely.  I don't consider myself ugly but don't think I'm very pretty either; just in-between I guess.  My girls are always taking pics of themselves and their family and that's alright too.

I don't mind pictures.  Actually it is fun because then I have memories of me with my parents, with my kids and grandkids, and of things we like.

I love taking selfies, but not much for somebody else to get a picture of me!
