I think javachik and Plei are both very photogenic, but I also think they are pretty in RL. My sister is like that too, she can't take a bad picture. Something about her dark features and her smile.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
99% of the pix of me are really crappy. My mouth is always open (TALKER!) and I have the double chin. I think I look much better in person, because my personality informs so much about how you view me.
Of course, people who don't like how I look can take a flying leap, because oh the fuck well. I clean up pretty well, but when I was heavier, I DETESTED having pictures taken.
Even worse, when I hear my voice (like on voicemail or a recording) I want to run and hide. It doesn't sound like my voice and I feel sorry for anyone who has to listen to that.
My voice and my BFF's voice sound almost exactly alike on voicemail or recordings. It's weird.
I have more chin and less hair, and way more belly, than my mental image of myself does. In my head, I look like I did when I was 25....25 years ago. A bit unrealistic, aye.
Even worse, when I hear my voice (like on voicemail or a recording) I want to run and hide. It doesn't sound like my voice and I feel sorry for anyone who has to listen to that.
It definitely weirds me out to hear my voice...because I sound JUST like my sister. Except, y'know, not like I sound to ME. So it's like I'm hearing her, instead of me. In MY head we don't sound alike, but apparently we do...

My recorded voice sounds like a kid to me. I hear it a lot because I do the voice overs for all our training stuff. Which doesn't make sense because I have no authority in my voice whatsoever. I should make my son do it. He reads aloud really well.
I mostly hate still photos of myself, but don't mind videos. The animated version is easier to take.
eta: apparently I sound just like my sisters too. One sister's office is thrown when I call and ask for her because they swear it is just her on another line messing with them.

I feel the same way. Pictures of myself I'm usually fine with, but I really dislike hearing my own voice on a recording.
I'm sorry but you're all beautiful and sexy and you sound great to me.
Okay, interview scheduled for next Tuesday. Nervous and exited and super nervous, and aaaah!
Exciting, Sean!
