Not a chance in my case, hate the invetion of digital cameras !
bring back the days when there was a slight blur on the photo's, much more flattereing !
I have just uploaded our holiday pics and hubby and daughter look gorgeous, so how come I look like like a minger ? every single line is pronounced, and I look like a right sweaty betty !!!!
Right, am gonna ask my 7yr old daughter to airbrush me on photoshop !

To solve that problem - I take most of the photo's 
(Hate having my photo taken - I never look good on them.

I am so unphotogenic.....generally most of my photographs are taken underwater these days and i try to avoid being in them myself!
Same here Justval - my photos frighten everyone. Years ago I was asked to model for a professional photographer and was so pleased at the prospect of getting a decent photograph. He took 6 reels of films over a two week period - and then gave up on me. Oh! dear Jenny x

Me too!! most of our holiday pics are of my husband and the girls. I hate looking at pics of myself I never come out looking good in any photos so now I just avoid having my photo taken!
i can quite honestly say there is 2 photos in my house with me on, and each 1 is after ive had my 2 kids..... i detest getting my picture taken and it just doesn't happen.
there's always loads of the boys and OH but theres only 2 with me on, my friends are amazed by that, but i just dont feel comfortable with it.. god help me if i ever get married lol!

I looked through our disc last night that my boyfriend had taken and when I knew the photo was taken they were back enough but the ones that John had taken of scenery and I am walking ahead I look like fat nan the boxer so I am now on a diet.

Hi
We only take photos of scenery etc, we are rarely on the photos, because there are just the two of us, what you end up with is one of me on the balcony and one of my partner also on the balcony. And you bet I am pulling a face or talking. Seeing photos of ourselves only confirms we are not as young as we used to be

Can we have some examples please?
I'd be hard pushed to find any holiday photo's of me.... 
I don't look too bad on holiday photo's, but what about your passport photo?? Has anybody, anywhere got a decent passport photo of themselves.?? Mines awful, my hubby's looks like he's escaped from mental asylem and even my gorgeous grandchidren look horrendous on theirs!!! Why is that??

when immigration laugh at my passport I think that's the answer as to whether its looks good or not
Passport, bus pass, security pass - they are all hideous - and I could have been quite hurt when the bus conductor casually accepted my Retirement Persons Bus Pass the day after my 65th birthday. He might at least have had the decency to challenge it. Jenny x

OMG - my passport photo!
A woman in Manchester airport actually LAUGHED at mine!
I got caught in the rain on the way into town to get my photo for my passport.
(Last minute thing as usual - needed passport within 4wks...)
My roots needed doing but I had sort of hidden them pretty well with my hair style.
That was until the downpour flattened my hair and had me resembling a drowned rat!

I look rubbish in all holiday photos. God forbid anyone take one of me in a swimming cossie - it's frightful.
The only exception to that is my wedding photos which were abroad. But if you can't look good in a wedding photo you really must be butt ugly

Can't understand what all the fuss is about. I always look good in mine. Here's one of me in Greece last year:
OK, so it was on a good day.
OK, so it was on a good day.
A few years ago when digital cameras were fairly new, I went on holiday with some "friends". The type that take thousands of photos then play them back through the TV to bore everyone later on.
We joined them along with some others for a meal, a few weeks after the holiday. Out came the photos, on large screen TV. Lovely one of me. In a swim suit bending over, while rummaging through the fridge. I'm sure you can imagine how awful the sight of my fat bum was. I was mortified! Worse was to come.... one press of a button and the bloody picture was animated!!!! I've been trying to diet ever since!

Strangely enough my passport photo isn't too bad, except that my hair looks white instead of blonde. On the other hand nearly all other photos of me are horrendous, especially holiday ones, so I try to avoid having them taken as much as possible.
