“You made it so easy for me. I don’t normally feel very comfortable with photos but you kept making me laugh and smile and I am really happy with the way I look in this pic.”
Bek Stoneham, Narangba
Listen here if you are a bit self-conscious about getting your photo taken
Yes! I can help you with that.
I feel self-conscious at times. We all do!
I know that everyone who has their picture taken, does so with some feeling of self doubt.
You may feel uncomfortable in front of the camera for your own reasons, about how you might look or what people might see.
I know because I feel the same way.
I know this is not a reflection of who you really are.
Classic pic mate! That is the best photo of me. I don’t know how you did that because I always look funny in photos and that’s why I hate it! When you told me to get my old fork and get into the garden I thought you had given up on me! Barry Batchelor from Garden Gate, Sandgate
Barry was a bit self -conscious too. He is a gardener and not used to people taking his photo.
Once I got him out in the garden though he was right at home and it shows in his pic.
Getting people into their own setting, and doing the things they do best, puts them at ease and makes for the most natural photos.
Just like Barry, I know, from my own experience, that there is something more, and the “real you” is there beneath the surface.
My skill lies in making you feel at ease, and building the right level of trust to get you to show yourself and your personality.
Some people take a little longer to warm up, and in those cases I make sure that you feel comfortable and relaxed while you are in front of the camera.
It won’t be nearly as bad as you think!
Thankyou Paul. I have to tell you I was soooooo nervous! But you took me outdoors and kept talking to me and making me laugh and I didn’t even know you were still taking photos. I still can’t believe how happy I look in this photo. Every time I look at it makes me feel warm and happy inside. It’s how I’d like people to see me. Peta Eriksson, Sandgate
