Every single outfit picture starts off full size, with my head included, but by the time it ends up on my site, they are all headless. I have mentioned that I have found it easier to retain my anonymity but I don’t know that for sure. What I do know for sure is that I find it extremely difficult to be happy with the pictures of my face. It is so easy to use clothes to get my body to appear more feminine but my face, alas, I struggle.
What is it? Does my face look only male? Does it not look feminine in anyway? Or is it just the limitations of pictures? A photo captures such a small piece of time and is so easily manipulated. The angle of camera towards the subject, the lighting, the colors of the subject, the abilities of the camera processor, the variables of photographs are almost endless.
Recently I tried something that I do on occasion. I took my camera and took about 50-100 photos of just my face. I then had my wife take about another 50-100 photos, of primarily my face. Here is my thoughts about this process. A good photo comes from taking enough pictures, not about taking the best possible photo.
Thus I have found a few that I think I look good in. And that feels good. It allows me to be able to see myself in real life, more as though I see myself in my head. Not that I see myself full time as a woman, but when I dress as a woman I would like see a woman looking back. And occasionally, if I take enough photos, I can see that woman.
Take more pictures. Love yourself more.
