I had this idea the other day as I was scrolling through my Facebook news feed. I noticed that lots of my Facebook friends have profile pictures of themselves a) staring at the computer cam as it snaps a quick photo, b) staring at the camera while they snap a photo of themselves (I am talking the, “I-reached-the-camera-in-front-of-my-self-and-took-a-photo-and-I-don’t-care-if-only-three-fourths-of-my-head-is-showing” kind of self-photo), c) that aren’t photos of them at all (think objects, children, etc.) or best of all–d) THEY DON”T HAVE ONE!
Now, please rest assured that there is nothing wrong with this and that I TOTALLY understand. As a mom who takes the pictures in our house, there exist just about 4 photos of me during 2009 where I am actually mostly in focus (I don’t count the ones that my kids take using my phone where I am only streaks of fuzzy color.) Two of those were taken on my birthday by my daughter while I was making a face at the camera with whipping cream on my lips. Although I am sure there are a handful of people that would LOVE me to post those photos as my Facebook profile photo, I will assure you that I am MUCH more vain than that. So, that doesn’t leave lots of options when it comes to Facebook, Twitter, or blog profile photos and I have now had the same one for over a year (GASP!!!)
OK, here is my idea–why don’t we get together and fix this problem.
At the end of your session, you can turn the camera on me and maybe I will end up with something to use, too!
I’ve set aside a few hours on Saturday, May 8th between 4 and 7 p.m. Sessions will take place in South Utah County. You get dressed up, drop by for a few minutes, I’ll snap some photos and lets see what happens!! See you there!
