When you get your picture taken, are you happy with the results?
Does it really look like you?
The you you recognize in the mirror?

When I look in the mirror, I think I don't look to bad for my age.
But, when I get my picture taken!!!!thumbdown
I had 10 pictures made of me. Only one seems good enough to put on MyLot.
Even this picture does not seem like me as I see me. [em]woot[/em]
Anyway it is the real me, no make overs. lol

What about you? Do you like the results you get from your pictures of you?

myLot reputation of 89/100. Margajoe (2140)   ranked 10 out of 3,175 in me  7 months ago

Yes, that is true too.
When I am in a bad mood I don't like anything anymore. lol

So I am not alone in this!
All along I thought it to be a mental malady of mine…I could never identify the me I see in the mirror with the me I see in my photos…so much so that I have actually stopped my pix being taken! I am not a beauty but my features are all there in right proportions so when I look at myself in the mirror, I see an OK person smiling back…alright, maybe my left jaw is a little twisted and my upper teeth a lil high but it doesn’t look so prominent in the mirror but when you see my pix! OMG….you would be forgiven for thinking I got hit on the jaw by a champion boxer…the jaw looks so twisted! And I look so fat….nah! I like myself better in the mirror.


myLot reputation of 89/100. Margajoe (2140)   ranked 10 out of 3,175 in me  7 months ago

Yes me too!!!w00t
One person here said it has to do with the lighting of the picture.
I don't know. I do know what you have with your jaw, I have with my nose.
It always looks so much bigger in the picture.
My face looks much longer too.
And like you, I look fatter than I normally see myself. lol
Very seldom that I have a picture of me that I really like.
happy

It is really odd. I hate pictures of me. I rarely take them because as you say what I see in the mirror and what comes out in a picture do not look the same. I have a thin face. I am over weight but not as much as a picture makes me look. The pictures make my face even look fat, so what gives? It's kind of like they say about tv that it puts 15 pounds on you well when I take a picture it puts 50 pounds on me. I just don't get it. I also look as white as a sheet in a picture. I am pale but not white, white. I guess now you know why you never see pictures of me, or hardly ever anyway.


myLot reputation of 89/100. Margajoe (2140)   ranked 10 out of 3,175 in me  7 months ago

Your dog takes good pictures. He looks like he has a great home. thumbup
There is one lady here that says it all has to do with the light.
I don't know, maybe?
I look very fat in pictures now too. I have gained weight, but not as much as my pictures tell me. hahaha!
When I was skinny, I looked like a skeleton, know I look like a cow. lol
Very few pictures of me that are nice. Oh well. happy

sometimes i dont feel like it is me in some of my pictures and often times i dont like its outcome. well i dont know why i dont really see myself that attractive. but sometimes, those pictures are so deceiving even i could think that i become a lot more attractive and beautiful. some even use photoshop to edit their features so that they may look, well, though quite diffrent but still totally not them.

I hate having my picture taken, no matter what they always come out looking cruddy, well at least I think so, my man loves most of them. I guess they look like me, but the camera does add some pounds (at least that is my excuse and my nose always looks really pointy, but in life, it is little a little piggies or so i have been told. lol So for the most part, no my pictures suck, every now and again maybe one is fifty, do i like one of the pictures taken of me.


myLot reputation of 89/100. Margajoe (2140)   ranked 10 out of 3,175 in me  7 months ago

Yes I know what you mean.
I think your picture looks very nice.
I have the same problem with the nose. My nose always looks way bigger!
At least I hope it is the picture and not in real life. lol

there are times that i dislike the picture. i am not a photogenic person so that explains quite a lot.

recently, i had to get a passport sized photo for my resume. a colleague looked at the photo and started laughing. another colleague actually said that she'd take another photo to send with the resume. guess i don't really look good on that photo. blink


myLot reputation of 89/100. Margajoe (2140)   ranked 10 out of 3,175 in me  7 months ago


That reminds me of my picture for my id card.
We are not suppose to laugh anymore, and the left ear has to be free.
Well, I look so old on that picture!!!thumbdown
It is terrible, and I have to carry this with me for years!
I look like I escaped from jail. w00t
Love you cats picture, she has beautiful eyes!!!
Is you cat a she??? I have been told when a cat has a small snout, it is she. happy


myLot reputation of 99/100. applefreak (2168)   ranked 361 out of 3,175 in me  7 months ago

yes the picture is my girl. isn't she pretty? i always call her 'pretty girl'. she enjoys being called pretty. lollol


myLot reputation of 89/100. Margajoe (2140)   ranked 10 out of 3,175 in me  6 months ago

Yes she is very pretty. I think cats understand us too.
Today I told my cat Mittsie, that he was not going to get all the same food I eat anymore, because most of the time he does not like it.
He then bit me!!! In my hand very hard! AS if he was offended.
I never had that happen before. He knows I am angry and stays far away from the newspaper. hahahaha!I just have to look at him and show him my hand (the place where he bit me) and he runs away.
They are not stupid.
But still your girlie has beautiful eyes!
Have a nice day. happy
