This is the thread for posting photos of yourself and showing off your self-portrait skills! Thoughts for rules:

I do not, as a rule, appear in photographs. It's one of the advantages of being the family photographer. However, I have taken one self-snapshot. torgeaux fucked around with this message at 03:30 on Dec 1, 2010 |

I don't usually take portraits, including self-portraits... but I do have one that I like. It was taken handheld into a hotel bathroom mirror because I liked the lighting, and I just had my haircut so it didn't look horrible like it usually does. My shoulders are so uneven because I'm holding the camera, but other than that, I like it. And since the OP says we're not focusing on the glamor of self portraits... here's a shot I took testing out a photo booth I set up for Halloween this year. My costume is 'tacky tourist' Gambl0r fucked around with this message at 03:30 on Dec 24, 2009 |

Taken by Bowling Green State University's photographer, a family friend of ours. INTENSITY I was also part of the headlines when BG got absolutely slaughtered by Tulsa in the GMAC bowl.

I heard one photographer on a podcast say that you have to be comfortable in front of the camera yourself and that any apprehension you have to being photographed projects that same feeling onto your subjects. Once I became comfortable with being photographed, taking pictures of other people got a lot easier. here I am playing DnD in this fabulous shirt and hat. I love unicorns. Here I am being a huge goon over my new video card. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have an unhealthy obsession with The Gay Blades I like the idea of this thread so we get to know each other more. Dorkroom united.

Mannequin posted:Let's get to know each other by faces and characteristics like we might in a school room or work environment. We don't outwardly cast judgment on these people, and we won't have to do that here either. The two most recent photos of myself. First is when I went to see my friend Patti in Florida in late May this year. I wish I was there right now, with this snowstorm we're in. Second is a bit later in the Summer, a crappy home scan of a Kodachrome slide.

(The self portrait using a mirror is overdone. But I couldn't help myself when the lift I was in had a mirror on the ceiling.) Latest photo of me. I'm going to get around to some serious self shooting now I have some off camera lighting at hand.

I never realized there are so few photos of me. This was taken at my friend's apartment in NYC, they have a swish penthouse with a huge roof deck that overlooks central park.

Mannequin posted:You don't look creepy at all. You look more like a person in a uniform because of his job. I think you should take more pictures of yourself, you'll see that you're probably a lot more photogenic than you think. Photogenic, you say? Time to prove you wrong!
