I try to think, 'Oh I just LOVE this guy'- when the picture is taken it doesn't look so forced! <br />This is why I hardly ever have my picture taken- I hate to wear panty hose, or heels. I only wear boots- even with a dress( I actually own one dress!) <br />But how does a person look good on a horse in photos? I'd really like to know! I always look awful!Vaquerogirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367676563270560606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6733128449626531145.post-83852165442635092752010-05-30T14:16:06.111-07:002010-05-30T14:16:06.111-07:00I would have told you and the photographer should ...I would have told you and the photographer should have. What I see a lot is the hottie in the dress with the visible thong or the large woman with the panty lines, who looks like a bag of potatoes. Or more unfortunately, the poor person in the backgroud looking weened on a pickle, and that person I generally don't see until I'm processing the pictures.<br /><br />When you ask someone to pose, you should, if there is something like a showing slip, or smeared makeup take them aside and mention it. A spot on the clothing, I always clone out. But when the issue is the pantylines, there's nothing anyone can do, so I try not to make the poor person embarrassed.Maiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829925970369556886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6733128449626531145.post-14202007081042139072010-05-30T07:53:32.302-07:002010-05-30T07:53:32.302-07:00I recently attended a small wedding with both amat...I recently attended a small wedding with both amateur photographers and one "professional" photographer who hid in a back room video taping the proceedings. The slip under my dress had creeped down and not one single person let me know. I was asked to stand up with the bride and groom for pictures, placing my arms around people, which just lifted my dress hem higher to show more of my slip. In every picture, my slip was showing, so we had to crop everyone off below the knees. I was horrified. I don't even want to think about that video that was given to the bride and groom. I wish the professional photographer could have come out from his hiding spot to inform me of this issue.<br /><br />When I photograph people I always let them know if their mascara is smeared or a thread is hanging from their hem or their hair is messed up and I help them fix it. A friend recently took my picture and let me know that my sweater was poofing out and making me look pregnant, so I unzipped it. I can imagine your frustration with someone who chose too tight of a dress and there's nothing you can do to fix it, because I feel just as frustrated when I ruin pictures due to being unaware of something about my appearance that is glaring and unflattering. There are fixables and unfixables.Nuzzling Muzzleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649710635013663900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6733128449626531145.post-33158690047052654162010-05-28T18:27:56.178-07:002010-05-28T18:27:56.178-07:00Glad you're still employed!Glad you're still employed!DarcChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18230643206461906913noreply@blogger.com
