"Hi. I was checking out your blog and I thought I'd would ask your opinion on couple photos. My boyfriend and I have been dating for a few weeks...and I'd really like to take some cute photos...even just ONE for a profile picture! I just am a bit embarrassed to ask him... Ideas for casually taking photos?"
Alright, this was a problem I really struggled with as well with my first boyfriend! Come to find out, guys really don't find it as awkward as girls seem to think they do!
1. Just be casual about it! Say "alright get in my selfie!" you can turn it into a bit of a joke! make a silly face! make it casual and carefree and silly! we were just laughing in this one! and he was all down for taking a picture! proof it works!
2. SNAPCHAT! SNAPCHAT is a great excuse. Be like "I'm snapchatting my friend! get in!" and just say "awh thats actually cute! im going to save it!" I took this one from snapchat! so there is your proof that it works!
3. tell your mom or dad or friend ahead of time "can you casually take a pic of us before we go?" or something like that! they can take the awkwardness for you! and you can even pretend to put up a bit of a fight so you dont look like you planned it! :) proof that it works shown below!
__THINGS TO AVOID__
*asking random strangers in public "can you take our picture?". Guys can find that kind of awkward and imposing.
*just randomly wipping out the camera in front of a bunch of people.
*asking him to kiss you for a photo
AS YOU CAN SEE, guys really dont mind taking pictures, and alot of the time they like to have photos with you just as much as you with them! just go for it! :)
