Progress Pics w no mirror!

I'm not sure if this belongs here, but it seems the best bet.

I don't have a mirror long enough for progress pics in my home, what do you mirrorless people do for pics? I think I ought to take them now because I'm just starting out rather than being halfway in and not knowing where I started!

  • Some people find full-length mirrors in public bathrooms, or in the locker rooms at their gyms.

    Oh, good point, thank you. (: I've thought of using the ones at the mall

    Look on your camera (or camera app) and see if there is a timer. It might take a couple of attempts but you should be able to take a pic that way. Or you could go to a tourist attraction and ask a stranger to take your pic ;)

    Use a timer on your camera. I use my iphone, and downloaded a free timer camera app.

    Use the timer on your phone. Easy solution.

    Fitting Rooms?? Some of them have three way mirrors?

    There's an easy way to tell if it was a three way mirror. It may happen but its not likely. Anyway if you put your finger nail up to it you can tell if its a normal mirror or 3way because you won't see a gap between your nail and its reflection. If there is a gap its safe.

    This may be a stupid answer, but why don't you get someone else to take your picture. . . then you don't need a mirror.
