is being called photogenic even a compliment?

[schizowillascend]

i get told i am really photogenic every time photos come out from a party or whatever (i am HTN/chadlite in these photos)

am i being told that i look shit in real life and the camera just blesses me up

or am i just being complimented

this is a real worry btw, im kinda tweaking about it (1st world problem)

nah icl that much of a difference just isn't possible, you are either overrating him in photos or underrating him irl

if he has a really wide face, lense distortion might help him

but the photos i'm talking about are undistorted - should i send them to you?

 

[schizowillascend]

Flash?

nope, just candids

yea and generally bad eye area but on photos he ls always squinting and squinching so its not visible

 

[superpsycho]

May be a way of saying your attractive without them saying full out

 

[Node]

why tho

Because if it’s men maybe they wanna say you look good without sounding gay

After talking to my 12 year old autistic sister I have concluded I am better in real life

My sister said I look more symettrical and I am giving off an aura of like brightness (inner light ahh)

i have skin issues that are more apparent in real life, so i focus on that in real life

but overall i would say i look better in real life by a fair bit, but its just because i hyperfocus on my skin so i tweak out
