Caitlin of Style Within Reach

Tanesha of Girl With Curves

Most people could not imagine posting weekly photos of themselves for the world to see. Who takes your pictures and is it harder on some days than others to get good shots you’re happy to post? Do you ever have “bad hair” days?

Caitlin:

My boyfriend takes my photos and I definitely have days I don’t feel like having my picture taken. I often end up with photos I don’t post because I’m not satisfied with how I look! I think we all have days like that.

Rachel: My mom and husband take all my photos and yes, some days it’s harder than others

to get the right shot. I’m not camera ready every moment of my life! When I am literally having a bad hair day I either throw it into a messy ponytail or bun. There are plenty of outfit pictures that have never made it onto the blog, for a variety of reasons. Perhaps I just don’t like the lighting or in photos the outfit isn’t as cute as I was hoping it would be.

Tanesha:

My husband takes my pictures. I have my share of “bad hair days,” and on those days I know it’s not a good idea to get in front of the camera. If I don’t feel confident you’ll see it all over my face and in my body language. I wear my emotions on my sleeve! 121
