Does anyone actually like having their picture taken? email this discussion to a friend?

So a few of us are talking and looking at photos of our group. Each one of us thinks everyone else looks great in the photos. "Oh, that's a good one of you!" "Love your smile!" But unanimously, we all hate how we look in these same photos! "Oh, I look fat!" "I'm burning that picture of me!" "OH, I HATE having my picture taken!"

Seriously, we are all looking at the same pictures! But, I must agree with my friends. I think I look awful in all the pictures, and I think my friends look great!

Does anyone actually LIKE having their picture taken? Do like how you look in most photos?

I don't enjoy much having my photos taken. But of course, if there are situations and there are free picture taking sessions, I would join. Some people may look good in photo than real appearance, while others doesn't look so good. Whatever it is, let us be thankful that we are alive today and whenever we look at ourselves in our photos, at least we have our face to look at!lol

Well, I guess that is a good attitude to have. Couldn't I just borrow someone else's face for awhile! haha

I hate having my picture taken, especially with my family because everyone has to take like 10 pictures of the same thing, or they can't get their camera to work. It takes forever and I can't hold a smile for that long so I always end up looking bad in the picture.


myLot reputation of 95/100. casinocat (180)   ranked 3,482 out of 37,571 in life  5 months ago

Yes, I just love that frozen smile look.;p

I like having my photos taken but I don't look pretty good in all those photos especially when they take a stolen shot of you. Pictures are pictures. They don't lie and they tell me I don't look good all the time.


myLot reputation of 95/100. casinocat (180)   ranked 3,482 out of 37,571 in life  5 months ago

That's a good attitude to have.

Sometimes I like what i look in my photos, others i do not really like...Tough, I am not that conscious on how i look on photos...Haha...Good day!


myLot reputation of 95/100. casinocat (180)   ranked 3,482 out of 37,571 in life  5 months ago

I am more conscious of how I look in photos than how I look in real life. I guess since photos aren't going to change over time.....

happy I actually like having my photo taken. I love photos so much and enjoy looking at them because aside from capturing and preserving moments, I also get to see how much I have changed through the years. I like how I look in my pictures. I just don't like stolen shots.


myLot reputation of 95/100. casinocat (180)   ranked 3,482 out of 37,571 in life  5 months ago

This would be ideal for me. To be able to look through a lovely scrapbook of memories and actually like how I look in the pictures.

I don't really feel comfortable when someone is taking my picture. It seems like forever when they're trying to do that but I do like to see myself in pictures. Cheers!!

I don't feel comfortable when being photoed,I think it's because I do not have confidence of myself,perhaps what we need to do is loving ourselves more:)

I think you make a very good point orchidonna!

It is ok for me if someone takes my picture, especially after these digital cameras, i have a chance to see if it looks good or bad, But i really don't like people publish my pictures in their facebook accounts. I already warned my friends about it/


myLot reputation of 95/100. casinocat (180)   ranked 3,482 out of 37,571 in life  5 months ago

Yes, I do love digital cameras and the ability to delete all the bad shots!

I like very much having my photos. I am very much fond of getting my pics clicked. I have a hobby that whenevr i go out with my freidns i get clicked lots of photos of mine and my freinds and i keep them in my laptop with date and location. I love to watch them in free time to refresh memories. And whenevr we freaind do get togather we always enjoy watching thess photos.


myLot reputation of 95/100. casinocat (180)   ranked 3,482 out of 37,571 in life  5 months ago

This is what my friends and I were doing.. I guess we just enjoyed complaining about our photos.

Yep, that's why I have lots of photos of my husband in Las Vegas. No, he wasn't there alone....
