I love taking self portraits. No, it’s not conceited, or awkward. I take them because I think it will be fun years and years from now, to look back at this time in my life and see myself enjoying places, people, experiences. “Can you take a photo of me?” becomes a hassle, so I have no problem snapping my own.
However, I naturally “pose” for these shots. I try not to, but it’s impossible. Like Tyra Banks, I “know my angles.”
So when I manage to take a photo that really gets me in the moment, without neccessarily making myself look “good,” I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot. Like this one. This is lfarm, happy. Truly, truly happy.
I’d like to see more like this one.
