I hate to be in pictures, I hate the way I look in them. I love being behind the camera, I love taking pictures. Snapping the perfect shot is so exciting and I am a picture-a-holic!
When I look through pictures on my computer, I see all these pictures of my family and it sometimes makes me a little sad becuase it's like I am never there. Of course I am always there I am just hiding behind my camera.
So do you like being in pictures, or are you always the one taking the pictures?

I love the aftermath too, its gotta be my favorite part. I love looking at pictures, and I am always browing through the ones on my computer it is amazing to see how much things can change is such a short time! My hubby is the same way he refuses to be in pictures and will hide his face or turn away...anything to be able to get out of being in the picture. But I always get him when he dosnt know its comming and have got alot of really nice pictures. I wish he would do that to me, and not give me a choice I bet i would thank him later, when Im looking through the pictures!

I am not photogenic at all but I also love to be in pictures. Taking pictures as well. We all take turns whenever a party or a family gathering or just wandering around with friends.
Being in a photo is nice because it brings a lot of memories and aside from our thoughts, the pictures are the sources we get to remember the good memories we had on that day. =)

I know, thats why when I look back at all these pictures of my family, i really realize that I have to start getting in front of the camera. I want to look back and my kids to look back and be able to see my family including myself having fun and being a family. But everytime someone wants to take my picture I have some reason I dont want them to. I need to just say YES! :)

For awhile I used to avoid having my picture taken. Then I just decided to go with it. I don't usually like the way I look in them but at least I'm in them. I wanted my kids to be able to look back at the pictures and see me too, not just everyone else. I'm behind the camera more than I am in front of it but at least I'm still in some of the pictures.

Yes, thats what I have to do...just go with it and let my picture be taken even if I look bad in them. I want my kids to see me in the pictures when they look back on thier life too!

Same here, even when I was a little girl I remember not wanting to be in any pictures. I hated school pictures and taking pictures with my freinds. There are not alot of pictures of me at all.
