In December, I gave you a set of tips for taking Christmas
photos. One tip was to make sure you don’t hide behind the camera. I read a
blog today that expressed the same opinion more eloquently and in more depth
than I did. The post is titled, So You’re Feeling Too Fat to Be Photographed,
and it was written by Teresa Porter of My Friend Teresa Photography.

That's what everyone wants—to see you as they naturally see you. Not tense, pained, or hiding. Anyway, check out that blog whether you need the message for yourself or for a member of your family.
You already know that I don't mind having my picture taken or using my own photos in my blog. How do you feel about being photographed?
I don't like being in photos - because I AM too fat! LOL I'll go check out the link you gave to us!! You always look great in your photos, Brenda. I wish you had posted the photo of your mom, so we could see it, too!!
ReplyDeleteI'll try to find that photo. I think it's on the other computer. And you will never see the thousands of photos of me that I thought were awful--I have some doozies. I am just persistent and will keep posing till I get a shot I like!
ReplyDeleteI found the photo! It was from 2009. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Brenda! I love it! You are so right - great capture!
