How photogenic are you?

I look HORRIBLE in most photos. I have to take about 20 to get one good one. And even then, I don't think I look as good in photos as in real life.0
-
If I'm ready for the picture, I like them. I even like my driver's license photo. If I'm not aware I'm being photographed, I look like poop.0
-
I don' think I ever thought about it so I must be the same, unless of course I have been drinking, then one eye starts to droop closed. It's really attractive.0
-
I'm so not photogenic.0
-
I have the opposite problem. I photograph pretty well, but, when people see me in real life, they are disappointed.0
-
As long as I don't try to force a smile, I'm okay.0
-
I am lucky to be photogenic, I get told that a lot! I look better in photos than I do in the mirror, though!0
-
Being photogenic, in my opinion, is knowing how to fool the camera. Even people who think they're not photogenic do SOMETHING when a camera is shoved in their face besides stand there.
I did a LOT of self portraits for my photo projects in college because I would want to do crazy things that no one else would. I know how my face looks when I do certain things even if they don't feel like natural poses.
So, yes. I'm pretty photogenic.0 -
I'm one of the least photogenic people in the world. To the point where I'm constantly untagging myself in friends facebook photos.
Maybe when I reach my goal I will feel differently.0 -
I am very very very unphotogenic. Both at my highest and lowest weights I just can't make decent faces. I actually get told "stop doing that with your face" sometimes when people are taking pictures. ...Doing what!? I thought I was just smiling! Eeeeeevery once in a blue moon I'll get a cute pic out, but it's usually out of a stack of 200 and even then it doesn't look much like me in real life.0
-
Every time I look in the mirror I ask myself if people see what I see in the mirror or if they see what comes out in a picture because I think I look way better in the mirror than in most of my pictures, I know this has to do with my weight and I know when I loose more I will feel better about myself, but most people don't say I look any different in pictures so I am afraid of what they are seeing.
I do have some photo's I look good in, but most I really don't like0 -
i'm not very photogenic..it takes me 50 tries to get ONE pic that looks halfway decent
I always thought that was normal...o_O Oh shoot...ok so maybe i am not photogenic nor look like myself in photos. New form of vampire...0 -
Not photogenic - that's why I get professional photos done like my profile pic here0
-
terrible. there is maybe one photo of me that does not look extremely awkward. lol0
-
i am about as photogenic as an elephant butt lol0

You be the judge, am I photogenic? Lol0 -

You be the judge, am I photogenic? Lol
You look AMAZING, but whether or not you are photogenic depends on if you look better or worst in real life XD0 -
Very photogenic. Check out my blog and see Hahahaha0
-
Not at all. If I know it is being taken I freeze, random pictures I look wickedly bad. Just bad all the way around!! I would like to say I am better in person, but I can't be the judge of what others think.0
-
Well that was taken yesterday, let me check, yep still looks the same0
-
I'm not. Look at me I look so wooden!
Seriously though a good photographer makes the difference.0 -
Out of 15 pics, I'll keep maybe 2-3. I think I'm in the middle.. sometimes pictures come out good, sometimes I'm trying too hard, sometimes I'm not trying enough, etc.0
-
In the middle. I was really photogenic when I was little, but as an adult I like maybe 1-2 out of every 10 pictures. I'm noticing that I like more pictures as I lose weight so maybe when I hit goal I'll consider myself photogenic again.0
-
I always try and stay at the back and push my neck out a bit so the treble chin doesn't show.
So basically I am photogenic when I look good. I am not photogenic when I look like crap. I think it might be called selective photogenicity.0 -
I think I am very photgenic (how egotistical does that sound) as I get told it a lot. Very annoying though as people expect me to look good in real life, which I don't. x
^^^This^^^0 -
I'm the not photogenic type haha!
But, maybe the -10 kilogram version of me will be photogenic!
Lies! At least based on your profile picture =D.I'm much "better looking" in real life. I think that's because a lot of women find me attractive due to my personality (yes, you can all stop laughing now, thank you...) which doesn't really come across in a static photograph.
I think 1 out of every 50 photos of myself I see I really like so I keep hold of them for dear life and use them.
You and me both brother...except I don't have the personality thing going for me in person lol.0 -
If I'm ready for the picture, I like them. I even like my driver's license photo. If I'm not aware I'm being photographed, I look like poop.
I'm the opposite. Most of my favorite pictures are ones I didn't pose for. Sometimes I wish I could have a photographer follow me around on important occasions and not take any posed pictures just snap away as the occasion goes one.0 -
Yeah, I look way better in pictures than in real life. ]:0
-
Not photogenic. I look in the mirror and see one thing, but then in a picture I look completely different. Actually though my profile picture I think is a pretty good picture, that looks like, well, me! But I have a problem with not only looking different in pictures than I do to myself, but looking really different in each picture.. It's crazy.0
-
sometimes i look better in pictures than in real life. people are like, "that's YOU? wow, it doesn't LOOK like you!" lol oh well :ohwell:
it's like 90% lighting and camera angle LOL0
