Self esteem and photographs
I must say this firstly. Do not make this into oh you are good looking, just think good thoughts etc.
I have very poor self esteem about my physical appearance. It is to the point I will dress so I stay hidden. Hoodies with the hood up are my favored way of dressing. I know I am a good person on the inside and I believe that affects my outside appearance if people get to know me.
Today I had a thought. It was after listening to the song Skin by Sixx AM. He has taken pictures of people that most would consider not "normal" or "good looking".
I was wondering if one had the time and a photographer willing to do this would someone taking pics of you not posed and not with you dressed up... if they kept taking pics would you become comfortable and would you relax and eventually get to like how you look? Or am I way out in left field.
Remember it does not matter what others think of me as to be honest I will discount your words as you are just being nice etc. Please don't go that route
