..whenever my boys have shown me stuff on Facebook, there always seems to be some of their friends who are in almost every picture..somehow they always manage to squeeze themselves in...I personally don't like having my pic taken and only really agree to it on family holidays etc..(..usually on the night I've had a cocktail or two..it doesn't take much because I don't drink alcohol...)....


..so..are you a poser or a 'no sir'...(yeah, I tried for the pun there..)....

Yeah I like them for the memories. And if its a bad photo it doesnt really matter, you will forget about it within a day.

Hate it....I usually end up in the top corner of photos with 5 chins or a ridiculous look on my face as I am doing absolutely everything and anything to dive out of the way. It would be a much nicer picture if I don't try to get out of frame.

If it were up to me my entire life would be on film. If i were ever rich and famous i would have a full time photographer following me everywhere. i love pictures.

I don't mind if someone takes a pic of me doing something, but those pics where everyone looks at the camera are not great.

Only if it's on my phone/camera so I can pick and choose what gets uploaded and what doesn't

I don't mind but I usually hate how I look when I get to see the photo.

Not really, prefer to be the one taking them, but you can't get out of being photographed if it's a wedding , christening, holiday snaps, or some such event. The photos I really detest getting done are those passport ones, they 'never' seem to look right, no matter how many times you are allowed to retake them in the booth.

No I make a point of avoiding cameras whenever possible. I am the least photogenic person in the whole world :sad:

I honestly look like Myra Hindley in my passport pic :bored:

I think you look good in photos actually.

I bet everyone who thinks they take a bad poto actually looks good to everyone else but themselves.

That may be wishful thinking on my part :laugh:

No, I hate being in photos with other people, I always feel that I would bring down the quality of the memory. :/

I don't really mind having my picture taken as long as there's other people in the picture taking up space with me.

Only if I'm drunk, or in control of the photo/camera myself.

Somehow on Facebook there are over 4000 photos of me from the last 3 years so I guess I do..

I'd estimate less than 200 of them are me sober though

Not really, I usually avoid it.

But I will on holidays and stuff and I've started trying to get into more photos with family for memory purposes.

I remember sorting through a few old SD cards full of photos for my mother so she could choose some to have printed and she said "Where are you?" :laugh:

If I'm trying to do something or really focused and someone tries to take a photo then I get annoyed. If it's a social gathering or along those lines then no problem.
