This week's challenge was a TRUE challenge for me. I never have pictures of myself...and I feel stupid asking others to take pictures OF me....and I'm not handing over my nice camera for the kids to do it...
So here's as good as it gets.
Here's what I've concluded...
1) my arms look decent, yet still wave good bye to you.
2) I do not like those sunglasses on me.
hair = not done that day...and it was windy and I don't like those glasses.
Moving on.
Every summer the kids make tie dyes at their school/daycare...this year, I sent in a shirt for them to make one for me! Woot.
They MADE those, aren't they great?
Conclusions:
1) no matter how much weight I've lost, I still have a double chin when I try to take my own photo.
2) I need longer arms...or a remote...or a photog friend that will take my picture for me. (Glamour shots, anyone?)
And, just because...I usually take pictures of my feet (not sure why) at the beach...so I'll leave you with, my feet on the rocky beach.
So there you go.
great job - I love the tat! oh to live by the beach!
ReplyDeleteYea!! LOVE your shots this week!
ReplyDeleteawwwww, now this is the first time I have seen you...what a cutie!
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, I feel like a total tool taking pictures of myself too...hahahaha!
I think you are beautiful... and I don't really like those glasses either. LOL
ReplyDeleteI think the second one with you without the shades is pretty good!!
ReplyDeleteI like the shades!!
ReplyDeleteFeet are sexy. Those are some great pictures.
ReplyDeleteYou know at blogher this girl had like an extending pole thing that she kept her camera on. When she wanted a pic with someone she set the timer extended the little thing and then it was the perfect length for the shot.
ReplyDeletebtw-I can't wait!
Those are great shots! Love your conclusions ;) Too funny!
ReplyDeleteps - I'm not feelin' those glasses either...
These are fantastic! Thanks for sharing them!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job!! And, I must say, you do have great arms!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are too hard on yourself, you look great! And I love the feet shot, I do that too. It reminds me of what I saw when I was there...apparently I spend a lot of time staring at my feet....
ReplyDeleteI feel you, I delete half my pictures because of double chins. I love your tattoo
ReplyDeleteI feel ya, man. I cannot take an arm's length picture of myself to save my life! They give me double chins and a conehead. I puffy heart my remote. :)
ReplyDeleteBut these pictures are beautiful! And those shirts - wow! They did an awesome job. :)
So great!
ReplyDeleteLove your hair at the beach, very windswept and carefree!
Those were nice... and I agree - loose the glasses.
ReplyDeleteAww...you're beautiful! Love those beach shots! And the kids did a fabulous job on your shirt! I too can't shake the double chin--I find if I do self-portraits looking UP at the camera, there is no double-chin (not that I do self-portraits very often, mind you!!).
ReplyDeleteCheck out the HOT Mama! Fantabulous pics. The one with you and your son {sans glasses} belongs in a frame!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you on the self portrait conclusions! It's great to see you - the first two are super cute!
ReplyDeleteVery good job this week!
ReplyDelete;) The key is to hold the camera higher so you are forced to look up ;) or at least not down
ReplyDeleteLove the beach shots! Hooray for aviators and wind blown hair, it's so real. You look fab!
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots! Love the glasses on you! Tell your kids, Great Shirts!
ReplyDeleteBig fans of tie-dye in this house. They did a great job with their tees. I think you look fantastic. I also get the double chin too - there's a way to tilt your head to avoid this but I'm often caught off guard.
ReplyDeleteI love every single one of these shots...Absolutely beautiful! Xx
ReplyDeleteOoo! I saw something somewhere that you would love! (I want one for myself) it's this little doo-dad that you can attach the camera to and hold out in front of you for the "me in the picture" shot!
ReplyDeleteThis isn't making any sense is it? Wish I could remember the name of that thingy!
But, anyway, your pictures are AWESOME and you are giving yourself too hard of a time! Love the tie-dye! Can they make me one next year? :)
Awesome pics! I always have a double chin. Doesn't matter who takes the picture. And I'm waving my arm fat at you right now. Cute feet!
ReplyDeleteNice feet--you have good toe spread.
ReplyDeleteYou are beautiful! And I? Love the sunglasses.
ReplyDeleteGet a remote!!
I love your feet pictures :) You look fantastic in all your shots - especially the first two :) This week is so fun!
ReplyDeleteI like the feet photos. Your shirt turned out great.
ReplyDeleteTaking your own photo is tough. And don't be pointing out all the stuff you hate when you post these photos--they are GREAT! I didn't even notice the glasses until you pointed them out. Yeah, you need a smaller frame. But you still are cute!! Kids are fab!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome!
ReplyDeletep.s. I'm a big fan of foot shots :) Most convenient subjects!
great shots! looks like you're having fun and thats all that matters!
ReplyDeleteThose are great pictures! We just made fun t-shirts just like that. Oh...and great color on the toes:)
ReplyDeleteI try to take my self-portraits in the mirror! No need for long arms!
ReplyDeleteI think all of your captures are great and I LOVE the tie-dyed shirts!
The never-dying double chin...I have that too. But I think your pictures turned out great. And really, how can you go wrong with beach pictures anyway?
ReplyDeleteAnnual tie-dying shirts sounds like a good idea. Maybe I'll have to do with my kids.
You are fantastic! (And so are your children :-> )
ReplyDeleteHold the camera above you and look UP at it...anti-double-chin-secret!
ReplyDeletequit being so hard on yourself.... you look great !
ReplyDeleteJust picked up my camper in her tye-dyed shirt! :)
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see YOU! You look great in that tie-died shirt and you have great feet too! : )
ReplyDeleteThose first two shots of you are wonderful - you look SO GREAT!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I particularly like the one with you with your son (no sunglasses). And I totally agree with you about your conclusions!! :)
ReplyDeleteGirl you are so funny, I love your post!
ReplyDeleteIt is a pleasure to meet you!
Oh My and I totally love your tattoo!!
