Following Gikk here. ;P


I had 12 pictures taken, and I've managed to narrow it down to 4 now!

I don't need any comments like 'ewww lolol I don't like any of them!' -- so please be kind or don't say anything at all! ;P

Okay, here we go!

It's a-okay. If you did a whitening kit, you'd be a solid 9.

I can't say the same for yours, though - chipping them on chicken bones. ;P

#1 has the best closeup of your face, and is a good picture overall. The sideview of your torso hides your shoulders a little too much, but other than that, I like it.

#2 looks too stiff, and the way your shirt lays makes it look like you're wearing a corset too tightly around the lower midsection. (I know you're not wearing one, but still...) Probably standard for a yearbook photo, but you can do better.

#3 has a good pose, and the best angle. Overall, this is my preference, unless you're going for a picture with more of a cleavage profile (shut up, it's true). If you're limited for space, cut it off around the center of the hourglass (midsection).

#4 just doesn't look right. Your head is tilted forward, and it accentuates the wrong features, making you look older than you should. Black-on-black also takes away from the photo.

From best to worst is 3, 1, 2, 4.

1) Looks Damn good.

2) Aside from the smile, looks like a full body mug shot.

3) Looks okay, pose is a bit... eh, but overall good.

4) Makes you look either drugged, or really old.

From a crtique standpoint, which is typically how I gauge a person. If I were to use any of them for anything to work from.. I'd use 1, possibly 3, but I'd find 2 and 4 useless.

Ha! My family really likes 1 and 4... (I personally *hate* 4. She used a more direct light and it was like uh whoa, yeah! ;P) And I don't think 1 looks at all like "me"... But eh. I appreciate your suggestions, thanks. I don't really appreciate the critiques though. ;P That is not what I asked for. I had no real control over what poses she wanted me in - she told me, I posed, she said good/bad, and shot. *shrugs!* I think they all came out decent, though.... But thanks anyways.

The critiques are there so that you can understand why us horndogs like or dislike certain pictures. It lets you see things from our perspective, so you can make an informed choice, rather than just a popular one... especially if there's a tie. No offense intended

And I did like the first one, and was trying to be nice... Typically I'm a lot more critical by nature, but the intent wasn't to change you or anything about it. Just point out what I liked and didn't like so you could see what the majority likes or doesn't like by the picture itself. So mirroring what Ford said.
