Last year I published a post called 6 Reasons I am a Blogger and not a Model and you lot loved it! In fact, I shared some a long time ago too – see those here, look how young I am!! It came back to my mind recently when I chatted to a couple of other bloggers about being photogenic, and I realised I’d probably gathered quite a few more bloopers since then, so I started scrolling back through my picture gallery on my computer. Yep, I was right! And it’s more than just a few bloopers too – in fact, these are only a tiny fraction of them, #oops!
Naturally I’m not photogenic. Ask my friends and family – they know just however many weird facial expressions I can pull completely by accident – and mother, let’s NOT find that photo. She knows the one I’m talking about, I’m convinced she has it hidden away somewhere for my wedding or something…
Anyway, I’m no good at coming up with captions for these but really some of them just speak for themselves and I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out why they never made it to the blog…so on with the bloopers!
I find it difficult to stay in the frame
I can’t do the elegant jumping thing
The wind and I frequently disagree
I cannot do a sensible face, and if I do, I look angry
My limbs disappear
I fail at “Model Poses”
I get distracted by animals to hug, or bubbles, or other people…
Now please tell me I’m not the only one?!
Brilliant post Sian!!! Absolutely loved this lol. really made me chuckle. And no, it’s not just you! When I’ve been blogging a little longer, I’ll share some of mine 😀

Thanks! I think they’re so funny that I just have to share 😀 xx
OMG this is amazing. I laughed so hard – not at you, WITH you of course! I love when bloggers share their outtakes. GOLD, I tell you!

Haha I completely understand and am so glad you enjoyed them – they definitely make me laugh too 😀 Oh, and there are far more where these came from too!!
I LOVE this! I wish more bloggers did outtake posts. They’re so fun, and if you’re a blogger, very relateable – I’ve done one both years that I’ve been blogging. These are so funny and cute.

Thank you 🙂 That’s what I love about them too – sometimes I feel like all the posing means people don’t get to know me all that well, and this is what most of my photos really look like 😀
I often don’t like outtake postings – sometimes they even seem self-indulgent, perhaps because they are only marginally different to the posted photos! But these are so hilarious and caused me to laugh out loud. Please post some more in another few months! Kx

Glad you liked them! I’ve noticed before where outtakes have just been ones that didn’t quite make the cut for the post, mine are definitely more on the “blooper” side 😀 I’ll definitely have more coming at some point!
Hahaha this is so me! At least you still go for it – I gave up on sharing photos of myself a long time ago… You’ve inspired me to try again! 🙂
