Do you like having your picture taken?

I seldom like people to take my pic but I have no problem taking it (like my avatar) I like a few pics of me. But not a lot

I'm not very photogenic so most pics of me don't quite look like me, I think I often look better in person then in a pic, so I don't really like having my picture taken.

I don't like having my picture taken for any reason. I don't like the way I look in photos, professional or candid. I am envious of those who always look great in pictures. Lately I have acquiesced and allowed my picture to be taken. Mostly it's to mark an event. My dad Is elderly and ill, so whenever I visit, we have a picture taken together. I don't care how I look. The pictures orient my dad to time, and I'd hate to have him pass away without having any pictures of us. He was a professional photographer, and his favorites were always candids. There are piles of photos he took of me as a child. I didn't like it then, either.

I like taking pictures of myself but when people take a picture of me or I have to pose for them, I really got conscious. my kids also loves taking a photo of themselves. they get my camera phone and start taking a picture of themselves and I find it amusing most of the times.

I like snapshots. I don't like professional pictures. I don't mind being on the camera and I am somewhat photogenic (not conceded) but some people are not natural in front of a camera and it looks just as it is fake. I'm not crazy about posing for a camera but I don't mind people taking snapshots. I think it's fun to look at them and see how off gaurd you really were! LOL

yes i do! but just at the sitution that i can see what im i looks like when taking the picturem, like using a phone, and im just like you , not used to being taken pictures by others , that makes me feel bad , i always worry about waht i looks like in the picture is not that good. so i [refer to take my pictures by myself.

I have a whole album of pictures of me taken throughout my life and I am so glad they were taken because I can look back and see how I have changed! Up until I was four I had beautiful blond hair but that is very sad because it turned brown. I have seen how I have lost a lot of weight and seeing pictures of me when I was a lot heavier has given me incentives to lose weight. I am not a poser but I do like to have my photo taken and collected so that when I am old and grey I can look back at how I have changed, its memories.

Yea, why is that. It seems like there are a lot of people who hate seeing their pictures. It's just something to do with self esteem.

Hello, sharra1! No, I do not like pictures of myself. I do not think I am handsome, and I do look uglier in pictures. How I don't know, I just do look horrible in them. It seems like they are much better if they are taken naturally (when I am not seeing it). If they tell me: "make a pose", then I'm screwed. I guess I will start trying funny faces on the mirror, so at least people will laugh instead of getting scared, hahaha. I do like to take pictures of others, but not if they are not allowing it. I know how bothered can someone be if you are trying to take their picture and they just don't want to be seem. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

For the most part I do not lik getting my picture taken. Especially in the summer when I have my hair in a ponytail alot. it makes me look like I have no hair. When I have my make up on, and hair don, thenI don't mind having my picture taken or if I am in the picture with someone else.

I never liked having my picture taken by professionals. For some reason, I was never a huge fan of that. If it's my friends who taking a picture of me, I don't mind so much, as it leaves me a lot of room to be crazy, be silly, or whatever.

I have never liked having my picture taken. I do my best to try to avoid being in front of the camera. I much prefer being behind a camera taking pictures. I actually like doing that. I do not like seeing myself in photos. I always want to try to get them and tear them up but I dont usually get the opportunity to do so.

I like to take pictures but not to have my picture taken. I hated the school pictures. My pictures were always so terrible. When I try to snap my 3 year old grandaughters picture she runs away.

Hi friend, actually as for me i do not mind taking pictures or letting other people take my pictures with me. Because i think by taking pictures, we can capture the good memories in our life and when we look at the picture in a few years times, it definitely brings back good old memories. I like seeing pictures of myself and i do pose when i see a camera instead of running away. CHEERS

I definitely do not like being photographed because like you, it is never how I see myself.Even though I am constantly being complemented for my looks and being spoken of and told how handsome I am,I dont accept it.No, I certainly dont like seeing pictures of myself.Phooey!!!! "Take 'em away Sam"....

No I don't like to see pictures of myself, I run when I see a camera or someone trying to take my picture. Everyone tells me that is the way you look. Well I guess I don't like the way I look then. I hate taking pictures.

I love taking photos and i like to pose in front of camera when i am not looks so horrible. If i am prepared and ready for picture taking i like posing and doing silly things with my friends. But what i hate is the stolen shots and when my husband took a photos of me while sleeping or just got up from bed coz i looks so horrible and im too ugly at the photo lolz. Happy posting.

I'm not that keen on having my picture taken. I love the Internet though and I love blogging too and so I guess I have had to overcome this small uncomfortable feeling. I have also been thinking how I would like to get something on youtube but I'm quite apprehensive about this. I'm sure that there are many people who are not that keen on saying cheese in front of a camera! I think the more that you do it though, the easier things will become. Don't forget to say cheese or sausages when you are next in front of a camera! Andrew

hi sharra. i like my pictures taken by me. hahah. i just use my camera phone or digicam to take a picture of myself :) sometimes, when i'm in the mood and everybody wants to have a picture i just join them or else, i'll be the one to take the picture :) take care. happy posting

Even professional pics (like my profile pic) have me asking the question, "Would you buy a used $2 bill from this man?" Unless we are used to seeing ourselves in pictorial form it is very hard to relate to, much as a lot of people cannot enjoy their own voices on tape. Lash
