No.

You are expected to pose and smile a certain way.

Also, my mom once called me a brat because I didn't want to have my picture taken in a stressful situation.
 
I don’t like it. I’m pretty self conscious about my smile since whenever my family has me in a group picture they say don’t put on that goofy smile (my dad) or fake smile (my mom). :/
 
yeah, i quite like it!! the vibes have got to be right though. i also like to hit up selfies when i'm in the mood

i was really aware of my mouth and smile when i was having my picture taken by someone not long ago, felt kind of weird
 
Hate it, especially when it's without my consent. I don't like how most photos of me make my already round face rounder. The only photos of me I like were either taken when I was a little kid or were very very carefully taken at an downwards angle to make my face look less round.
 
I do like it if it's taken by friends or family and they don't upload it anywhere. I used to hate how I look on picture but I realize it's a way to keep memories of what I looked like over time, and/or have memories of certain people with me.
So even if I don't like how I like on a picture, I'll still keep it because I know that in 5 years I'll be glad to look back at it.
 
Comforting seeing so many people feel the same. I'm not at all photogenic and whenever I've had a random pic taken I usually seem to be making a weird face or something. People always say I don't smile the right way. Whatever, I'm happy on the inside!
 
I hate taking pictures cause I don't really like how my smile looks with my teeth. Whenever I had to take photos I would do a closed smile but people would get mad at me and force me to do one with my teeth and it would always look so bad lol.
 
No, I cannot stand getting my picture taken. Especially if it's done out of my consent. Also I'm camera shy.
 
I don't like pictures taken of me at all. I wish it weren't that way, but I just don't have any confidence in my appearance and I never have.

I'd say I like 1 out of every 100 pictures I take of myself, but even then I dislike it after seeing it enough times.
 
I always look awkward when others take a picture of me. Idk how to do a genuine smile so I always panic and look uncomfortable
 
I dislike having my picture taken or taking one of myself, think I put too much thought into how to make a good smile that when it’s taken I swear I’m always pulling an odd face. Bit more willing to have a pic taken if it’s in a group cause at least then the attention is split between more people rather then only on me.
 
I hate the way I look, and it’s even worse when I feel awkward. It’s kind of alright if I take the picture myself but any time it’s intended for someone else to see it, I hate it so much
 
I voted 'I don't mind'. But it really depends on why I need my picture taken. If it's a group photo, sure. But if you're not saying why you're taking it, then I'd strongly be against it.
 
It's a hard no for me I fear... I basically never take selfies, and I feel another level of discomfort when other people take pictures of me, even if it's for my friends. I wish I was better with it sometimes, just so I could have more moments of myself captured in time to look back at, but it's something I never think about, and I think I'm overly critical of myself bc I put myself down too much sjfdgk. I don't think I'm very photogenic and look awkward/stiff in a good portion of photos I'm in. 😅
 
No, I don't like having my photo taken. I rarely ever come out looking all right. Besides, my siblings make it an unpleasant experience by taking numerous pictures only to be satisfied/posting the one that they look best in. Screw everyone else....
