Are you the photographer of your family who never gets into any of the pictures?

Yes, just like my mother was. We hardly have any photos of her other than the ones taken before she married. My suggestion to young people just starting families is to include everyone in pictures, if possible. The years go by too fast and your children and grandkids will appreciate seeing you as you were when you were young.

yes

Yes!

yes...to look at our albums, you wouldn't even think that I was a member of the family.

Yes, mostly. Sometimes I use the tripod so that I can run over and be included in the picture also.

All the time! I work as a photographer and so people say "give the camera to her as she does good pictures". Flattering I know but I went to a friends wedding last Saturday and the photographer didn't turn up, so guess what? No wedding breakfast for me!

Yes...I have to always tell someone to take pictures that I'm included in. Luckily, our kids are old enough to be trusted to take pictures.

YES! That's me!!! But I'm ok with it because I hate pictures of myself and I enjoy photography so.

Great question! I'm usually the one with the camera. But I make sure I'm in the picture because I hold my arm out and snap. So most of my pics are close ups since I'm short with short arms.

Yep, that's me - there are a couple of thousand photographs in my home, and I'm in about 6 of them.

I don't want to be on any photos, my husband is the photographer

Yes, since photography is one of my hobbies I'm usually the one. I've noticed that now that I have grand children, I would rather spend my time being with them and looking at them eye-to-eye instead of through a camera lens.

I sure am, have camera will travel.lol.

WHEN I remember to bring my camera!, yes...lol

I hate to have my own pic taken, but take everybody else's!

I try to be. I don't photograph well.

Use to. Now my wife and son have cameras. So I finally get in the photos. They have taken some great photos of me.

yes

Yes. We went on one family vacation, years ago. When the pictures came back, it seemed that 3 people, not 4, were on that vacation. I threw a fit over that.

Since then, I insist that different people in our group always take a few photos.

LOL That... would be Me... the one u don't see!

If pictures were the only proof I existed....I wasn't here. I don't like having my picture taken but it would have been nice to have a few pics with me in it.

Yep,it's just as well.

That's my plan and it has worked so far......

Yes, I am just like Teresa and Sage Seeker.I prefer to make the taker of photos. It keeps me out of the picture!

I take a lot of the pictures, but we've got to where we take turns and use each others cameras when family is together. My daughter's camera has a timer so we can all be in the picture, I like that.

You've got some great questions all the time DaisyMae. I take all the pictures. My sister and I had to find a picture of her husband for something. She went home to look in her photo albums, I went home to look in mine, she called me and said, "I feel like sister-in-law C. All the pictures are of me and the kids." I said, "I feel like sister-in-law K, all my albums are filled with pictures of the son."

Yes! I learned that from my mom. When we went to Disneyland in 1955, she had the 8mm camera in her face the entire time. You want to see the jungle ride? Mom's not in it. I take all the digital photos. If i want to be in one, I cut and paste! OH!! I have a standard face of mine that I like to stick on my face if I don't like it. there are a dozen or more pictures of me with the same face in different situations within the past year. LOL

Yes! This is weird because I was just going through old pictures of my daughter and me for her wedding slide show and realized that there were only a couple of them with me- i was a divorced mom and so I took all the pictures!! lol!

Yep! That is me behind the camera for sure! And I will bet most times, guys do not want to be photographed :P

Yes Granny!! It always happens with me. But I'm glad. Because I do not like pictures of myself, or the way I look photographed. (even though i am very beautiful)

Fortunately(?)not I have to take my family to the photo studio for the purpose or invite the studio man home.
