Who hates to be photographed?

[zanne]

I've always hated it when somebody snapped a "surprise" picture of me. Now, of course, everybody and his brother has a video camera. It seems the more you hate having your picture taken, the more people want to take pictures of you (or videos). I was at a birthday party today and I was consoling a woman who lost her husband a few months ago. I was hugging her and when I looked up, two people were videotaping it. AUGH! Who hates this as much as I do?

1. I do.

I can not Stand to have my picture taken...especially when it's unexpected. Getting my driver's license renewed is positively traumatic...

11. Me too...

Traumatic, but I'm getting better at it.

16. The guy at the local DMV who took photos for the license

...used to let you see your photo first and give you one more try if you didn't like it. He also - when I put down my honest weight the last time I renewed because I had gained five pounds since my previous license - kept my old weight on the license. He was very popular! I haven't been there recently though, so I don't know if he's still around.

As a last resort, if you REALLY hate your photo, and if you just so happen to lose that license ... a replacement license is only $4. where I am. Not that I have ever made use of this option. Oh no, not me. :7

2. I hate cameras.

All of them, and I religiously avoid being photographed. Luckily I'm homely enough people tend to avoid taking snaps of me on their own, but still.

3. Me. I look nothing like my photo's

I always look like either a deer in headlights or an old hag.

4. Me.

5. I hate having my picture taken when

the person taking the picture has no idea what he/she's doin'. They always make me look bad.

Now, if someone who knows how to do it... sure.

8. I don't even like it then

Of course, I haven't had it done by anyone who knows what they're doing since....hell...I was 25? Maybe 26.

[Mutley]

9. I haven't had it done by someone who knows what they're doin'

since HS. :P

[pitohui]

6. i don't allow photographs

rude people who photograph me w.out permission do not get to enjoy the pleasure of my company again

[Skittles]

7. I do

and I think it is rude to take someone's pic without their permission

[liberaltrucker]

10. Don't know 'nuttin 'bout dem fitty cent words

But I HATE habbin' my pitcher took.

:sarcasm:

[Momgonepostal]

12. I do, too

I'm one of the most unphotogenic people in the world. I hate those "surprise" pictures. Why do people feel like the rest of us are somehow public domain?

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

13. I don't like being photographed at all. I'm not very photogenic

[XemaSab]

14. I do

[grannylib]

15. I do. I can think of only one recent picture of me that I like. I am not

very photogenic at all. (Not like I'm some great beauty in person, but pictures of me look utterly hideous.)

[Broken_Hero]

17. I sure do...

but with the digital camera, I can weed through all the ones, that I think are ugly/nasty, and keep the ones I like...:)

18. Me

Hate it, hate it, hate it...

[BrotherBuzz]

19. Me, I respect a camera like a loaded gun, I always know where it's pointed

Always.
