Ok, maybe not. So maybe this post is dedicated to the fact that I think I'm completely unphotogenic. There's the random shot where I'm like, yeah, I like alright. For the most part, I loathe having my picture taken.
My solution: always make a stupid face when someone takes a picture of you.
I realized this might be a bit of a problem since I was asked by a co-worker a couple weeks ago to give her a head shot for my bio in a proposal. Hum. An appropriate head shot for a business context. Is it weird that it took me quite a while to find one, and even then it was a picture that was 5 years old?
Whatever. At least I've got one. But for those of you who also hate pictures, below is a collage of inspirational poses so you can purposely look like an idiot (instead of trying to look nice and hating the result).
Face shot examples:
Inspiration behind each shot:
If you have more ideas, please add them in the comments! I can already tell I'm missing the quizzical brow scrunch with puckered lip look and the lower-lip-bite-nose-scrunch-hard-core-rocker face.
bahahahaha! i love that i have taken, or am in, 5 pictures. that's gotta say something.
ReplyDeleteps - i think you look really cute in the picture with jen.
pps - i hate having my picture taken, too, so there are just none. i have like one or two pictures with me and lucy. :(
Yes, yes it does mean something. Means you're awesome too.
ReplyDeletePS you should take more pictures with lucy
Your blogs bring more joy to my life than I can express. I intend on trying out of those poses. And btw, you have some insane graphing and chart skills... I'd really like to learn that because it took me about 45 mins to get a proper graph into my paper the other day. You just whip those out like its nobody business. Also, I suggest going to the mall for ur headshot and getting the butterfly background. Bring ur friends so u can get a group shot after too.
ReplyDeleteI love that we have the same mind when it comes to photos...and I'm so glad I made cuts in not one, but TWO photos! haha. I obviously have a photogenic problem myself. If only I had the cajones to post some of the photos of you and I that prove how awesome we are at making faces in pics. Love the post!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED this post. Keep these pics comin! :)
ReplyDeleteI would like to suggest the crossing of eyes... this is a good one!!!
