Mr. Photogenic

Doug complains that he doesn't look good in pictures and won't stand and let me take a picture of him. I keep telling him his pictures don't turn out because he doesn't pose or smile or cooperate. Most pictures of him are taken as he is turning away or just before/after he puts his hand up in front of the camera or he gets up close to the camera real quick before you can snap the picture. I thought it would be fun (for me of course) to show some attempts at taking his picture. You'll see what I mean. He won't cooperate, but I love him anyway. He gives me ideas for fun and interesting posts sometimes.

This picture was the last straw for me. It's a 'get up close to the camera real quick before I snap the picture' pose. After a frustrating day of getting no good pictures of Doug I hatched this little plan to do a blog post about it. So I felt secretly glad when I got this little number.
What?!! I'm innocently standing here minding my own business and you put that thing in my face again?! I'll do my 'back off' pose.Maybe silly will work this time. Surely she'll put the camera away after this one.
I'll pretend she's not there. Look, Paige, what a beautiful view.Seriously, can you see my agony? Stop already!!

I'm drawing a blank on this one. It's just plain scary. This is quite possibly a man who has lost his marbles. Maybe I should have run away.In all fairness, this one's not too bad, although he's not looking at me. Doug is a handsome man. I hope you will forgive me for picking on you a little bit. If you just didn't make it so doggone easy. I love you.

Come on, Doug - just buck up and smile! When you are old and decrepid you will want to look back at pleasant pictures of yourself and show your kids, look, I was happy! I smiled for the camera! :) Nice post, Shnope.
