Okay, basically, I have been taking some pictures of me showing off some of my Etsy items and althought my camera isn't that great at self portraits and I'm not all that photogenic, I do think it would be fair to ask you whether I should continue doing this or just stop and never post my own face in my shop again (- I do admit this last option sounds a little bit harsh.)
These are some example pictures of me modelling two dresses:
Yay or nay?
I really like seeing people actually wearing the dresses online, i think it's more personal and it helps show how the dress sits. (plus i think you're much more photogenic than you give yourself credit!)

Ah thanks. :)
DeleteI have to agree with you indeed - it does give a better insight in what the clothing looks like on an actual person. Sometimes it's disappointing how something that looks great on a dress form loses its charm when you actually wear it!
You are totally photogenic and you model your items so well - so there's your answer!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Vintage Fashion Team by the way!

Thanks for the compliment - maybe the rest of the world sees me as more photogenic than I do, haha!
DeleteAnd thank you, I am glad I have become a member. (:
I tend to like it when I see an item on a person AND on a mannequin. If I see it on a person, I'll get a better idea of what it might look like on me.
ReplyDeleteAlso, you're totally gorgeous! Not photogenic? ha!

I agree with the rest. It's nice to see it on a person. I wish I could model the clothes I have for sale, but they mostly don't fit me and that's why I'm selling them. ha! But if they fit, I say model away and have a shot with it on the dress form as well.
ReplyDeletethe blue dress is so cute, I think that baby blue looks great on you! and thanks for stopping by and leaving comment at my blog!
ReplyDeleteLike all the gals say above, it is nice to see it on both I reckon! I know what you mean, I think we all think we look terrible at times, I think I am hideous, have done since I was a wee one, and still to this day! But after many years of other folk saying I was pretty, I thought, what the hell I don't care! I honestly I think you are super pretty and so just let your worries go and be free!!! :)
