I was surprised to learn you took them yourself. I have only just confessed to my husband that I peruse a fashion forum (I felt I had to tell him about the mini meet-up!) so maybe I'll be able to upgrade my pictures from dim cell phone pics. After all, photography is his hobby and he has multiple fancy cameras and lenses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1314291 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 14:18:31 +0000 E 1314291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That was funny Anna; thanks for the link!</p> <p>It's just me &amp; my camera too! I feel really awkward getting other people to do it, because I try to ask for feedback, but they can't tell me if my face is getting flattened out or not. Since it's for YLF and not a blog, I try to opt for more straightforward body poses instead of the most flattering angles&nbsp;possible, except for my face tilt (if I face straight on to&nbsp;the camera, all of my bone structure disappears into a weird, round moonface...and I'll probably end up with 2-3 chins). When I first started doing outfit posts, I took really honest profile shots too, but I found my self esteem was suffering, so now I cheat with those &amp; twist my torso a bit for wiw photos (vs k/r). I tell myself the people who know me don't spend much time at a 90 degree angle to me anyway. heehee</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1314140 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 08:30:04 +0000 Jeanie 1314140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, I bet you have some selfie outtakes your just haven't shown us. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1314136 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 07:52:28 +0000 Deborah 1314136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny. &nbsp;Anna it's me and my tripod too. &nbsp;DH is always very obliging but I feel more confident when I am in control LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1314037 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 03:42:48 +0000 Parsley 1314037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, Gigi, I thought the same thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1314033 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 03:30:21 +0000 Gigi 1314033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun pics! Thanks for sharing this.</p> <p>I was reading her web page, and she said that her husband does all of her "IT-related things." I have certainly been on YLF too long, because I thought, "Wait, he does all her inverted triangle-related things?" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1314013 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 03:08:13 +0000 rabbit 1314013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, my camera has&nbsp;been broken forever, and only one of us has a&nbsp;smartphone, so I'm grateful to have a photographer, but&nbsp;I pretty quickly learned that I had to review the photos before the end of the session. &nbsp;He's learned to take another if it's a goofy face now, but he doesn't tend to&nbsp;notice things like the wrong&nbsp;buttons unbuttoned, or uneven pants rolls, or collars inside out, let alone weird angles. &nbsp; I really didn't need the underside of my butt as the focal point of a shot... &nbsp;:P</p> <p>Also cat interference is an ever present danger. &nbsp;I admire those who have cats who sit by observing without wanting to get their owner's attention by clawing their tights for example.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1313964 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 02:25:56 +0000 Mo 1313964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sometimes the outtake ones end up better . . . maybe because they are more natural? &nbsp; But sometimes you see an angle you never want to view again in your entire life lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1313960 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 02:20:32 +0000 columbine(erin) 1313960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm off topic entirely, but I started browsing the blog you linked to and was quite enjoying a post of hers on a language. So thanks for pointing out a new blog.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1313956 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 02:12:31 +0000 Greyscale 1313956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a neat experience a few weeks ago. We were putting together a kickstarter page with a hoodie as one of the rewards, and a bunch&nbsp;of us modeled the hoodie for the photos. Anyway, our project ended up with a volunteer photo/video guy who's apparently a real pro. So instead of just standing there in my hoodie, I was instructed to pose in all these slightly awkward ways, tilt my head a bit, stick my hip out more, etc. And people were coming up to me and adjusting my hair and smoothing out wrinkles in the shirt and all.&nbsp;It was just like I see on model reality shows. I felt ridiculous but the photos of all of us look great. I don't think I'd do that for outfit photos - it would feel too forced - but it was a fun look at how professionals do it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1313949 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 02:04:27 +0000 Janet 1313949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got my stepson to take an outfit photo once. Big mistake -- I look like my legs are 6 inches long. All the potential photographers in my household are nearly a foot taller than I am. It's easier to just do the 30-second iPhone selfie thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funny-take-on-outfit-pics#post-1313936 Fri, 25 Jul 2014 01:53:49 +0000 annagybe 1313936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe it's just as well it's just me and my tripod.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://bluecollarredlipstick.com/2014/07/those-shorts-again/">http://bluecollarredlipstick.c.....rts-again/</a> </p>
