I keep seeing lovely pictures posted by photographer friends of engagements and weddings and I secretly envy the subjects of their art, all amazingly gorgeous, well lit, and looking like they have a modeling career on the side. I am just not that girl. I'm a little too goofy and self-conscious to ever pull off one of those photo shoots. Joe and I went to JC Penny for our engagement picture and that picture will only ever be displayed in our parents' houses ... and maybe in their local papers, unfortunately. However, yesterday I had a little fun with my camera and attempted a non-goober shot of myself. It came out not too shabby!
So here's the challenge, take your own self-portrait. There's only three rules: 1) gotta show your face, 2) no nudity, and 3) have fun! I'll post the ones I get on here. It's not a competition - just an excuse to have fun with the camera and maybe be a little vain for a few minutes. If you want to include a little information on the composition and an explanation of what you were going for and how you felt about the process and results, include it and I'll post it with the photo. Send your submissions to me at paige@pocketsmiles.com by next Tuesday (10/19/10).
