I've been taking pictures of myself

I’m very camera shy. I’ve never liked the way I look in photos, and if someone pulls out a camera, I hide. So lately I’ve been pushing my own boundaries and taking selfies to try to improve my self confidence, and here are a couple I really like:



I took these today, after my friend Laura (who’s in beauty school) did my makeup. I love the way I look in these! I’ve also been wearing prettier clothes, and taking better care of myself, and it’s starting to pay off! People have been mentioning that I seem brighter, more cheerful and happy. All I know is, I feel good about myself for a change. :slight_smile:

You skin looks amazing, so smooth and delicate. Serious envy here. You look great in all of them, but I really love the way your eyes look in the first one, so sweet and open.

I’m glad you’re getting so much joy from pampering yourself! It really shows!

The first pic is awsome. I think you can be photogenic. A good picture takes some effort for me as well. My wife takes the best pics of me. She is good with taking pics just with the right angle and in the right moment. I bet even when they do shootings with models they take hundreds of pics and select the best ones plus go over them with photoshop.

After seeing those pictures for a moment I thought someone is reminding me how I prepare a little for a good snapshot, lol I was stupid, who am I trying to attract?

You look great.

I was too stupid putting a face for it, now I am sort of relaxed, I guess when you speak truth you

can very well relax.

Sorry correction: I didn’t think those were wrong words…

how I prepare little

means I do prepare but not too much

I don’t mean I don’t prepare

So, the million dollar question is, why do I prepare?

There is nothing wrong, but the purpose is important. Don’t you think so?
