I hate getting my picture taken.

I hate getting my picture taken.

Is anyone dreading the whole picture taking process at their wedding? I hate myself in pictures so much, plus I am not the type of person that can do poses well at all. It makes me laugh. I went to my engagement session last night and while the pictures I picked looked good, most of them I hate myself in. I look so fat. Is anyone having this problem? If I can just lose like 20 pounds everything would look great. Ever since I met my FH I gained around 15 pounds. I need to exercise, exercise, exercise and someone to push my a$$ to do it. LOL

I hate getting my picture taken also - I don't like my smile and I don't like seeing myself in pictures - I'm also dreading all the time it's going to take, but I want the wedding pictures so I'll just have to pay my dues!

I completely feel the same way, which was why one of my top priorities of looking for a photographer was to find one who I would feel comfortable with and would make me laugh.

I hate the feeling of that funky forced smile I get...I do this lip quiver Elvis thing!

Re: I hate getting my picture taken.

You defintiely ahve to find a photogrpaher who amkes you feel comfortable. I don't rally like getting my pic taken either, but if you have a photographer who cna amke you laugh and amke you comfortable, it'll all be ok. My mom never smiles, esp for pics and my sister's wedding photogrpaher had her laughing and smiling all night. He had such a great personality

Re: I hate getting my picture taken.

You've got plenty of time to lose more weight and feel better about yourself for the pics. But looking at your profile pic, I think you look fine!! Don't worry about it and just enjoy yourself!!!

Re: I hate getting my picture taken.

Re: I hate getting my picture taken.

Re: I hate getting my picture taken.

i feel exactly the same way... it is like i am almost planning everything around the way i will look in pictures. I got cosmetic dentistry done on my teeth to fill in tiny gaps that you can only see in pictures. I hate the way i smile, and my nose always looks so huge :(
