Question Posted Saturday November 15 2008, 11:11 pm
Okay, so I was accepted into this leadership program. Which is great, except that I have to get professional pictures of me taken. I'm DREADING it! I'm kind of funny looking, to be honest. I just really don't want to do this, because I think I'm gonna end up looking stupid, and these pictures are going to be in our school AND in a nearby mall where everyone can see them. its embarrassing.
so basically, I'm wondering what the best way to do this is. I'm not really into any sports, I don't play any instruments, or do art. I write a lot, though. We have to bring some type of props that suit us, and I just feel stupid about it. I also need to come up with a good outfit to wear, which is another issue.
some one give me some tips here so I don't feel like crawling in a hole anymore!

I've seen wicked good pictures taken in an outdoor setting- against a tree, posing in the grass or leaves, etc. Or, a simple portrait, taken by someone other than your school pictures photographer (because they won't have 1000 kids to photograph and won't rush you), also looks amazing.
In my opinion, the best thing to wear is a solid color. Wear a color you're confident in. If you're self-conscious, go for a light or neutral color, like brown, black, white, pink, blue, etc. As opposed to lemon yellow =) Solids tend to look best, if you're worried about your picture "standing out". A bright, bold pattern will draw attention to you and your outfit.
