    I'm not photogenic at all!!! I always look like I'm fake smiling (which I'm not) I show my doble chin, my eyes look small, and maybe out of 100 pictures I like 1 or 2 lol this is for reals ppl! I been told I look a lot better in person than I do in pictures ; )

    I look awful in photos, but I suspect the same applies in real life.

    It depends for me. Mmmm I still have baby fat that shows in photos (not much in person) around my lip area...it can be awkward XD

    I think i tend to look different in photos...Sometimes I look very awful, sometimes very nice...but never really how I look in real life.

    The closest photos of mine that look like me in real life, are the last ones in my album here ^^ My facial structure looks different on camera. In real life, people often assume I like to party and stuff...because I look more on the "sexy" end and "serious/mature" end I think...while in photos, I look more like how I feel inside (kinda quiet and weird) xD

    Right now I hate most pictures that are taken of me- I always seem to get a double chin & various lumps showing up when I don't think I look that bad, so they usually just end up depressing me. I am hoping I will be more photogenic when I take off 40 more lbs.. :laugh:

    Not. At. All.

    Once in a while, I get lucky, and use the hell outta those pictures, but generally? Nah...not so much. Frustrating, actually.

    I guess I'm OK with photos...I am always smiling and I have a Miller Lite in my hands!

    My mother and I once had a huge blow out because I was trying to screen the pictures of me she put on Facebook.
    I'm the same. 1 pic out of maybe 60.

    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.

    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 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.

    I have the opposite problem. I photograph pretty well, but, when people see me in real life, they are disappointed.

    As long as I don't try to force a smile, I'm okay.

    I am lucky to be photogenic, I get told that a lot! I look better in photos than I do in the mirror, though!

    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.

    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.

    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.
