30 for 30: Days 7 and 8

Okay. Neither Hubsey nor I are good photographers. In fact, we're pretty bad. Not bad like Michael Jackson's "Bad," which is all about being the right kind of wrong; we're bad at taking pictures like Voldemort is bad at making friends.

Sometimes I balance the camera on the laundry rack and set the timer and manage to get the 30 for 30 pictures that way. Other times when it goes especially wrong, Hubsey will step in and operate the tricky machine. And then I end up with pictures like this:


I should mention that Hubsey is sprawled on the floor here, because when he tried to take my picture standing up, he'd either cut off my head or my feet. Every time. And then I have to try and hold my laughter in, because a random picture of me cackling in front of my bedroom door would be strange, too. So that's why it's crooked and why I have... that attractive facial expression.

Shirt: Target
Jeans: Forever 21
Shoes: Target
Hair: 3 inches shorter! (Spontaneous trip to Hair Cuttery.)

Well, we're getting closer. Only partially amputated feet this time.

Tank: Banana Republic
Jeans: Forever 21 (different pair)

My darling sister requested group pictures of the 30 items, so that's coming next. How's your challenge going? Are you more photographically adept than we are? (I hope so.)

  2. Does he realize that there's a screen on the back of the camera that shows what is in the shot? He might try to check on your feet there.
