+472 It's become a new fad amongst teenage girls to have random photo shoots of them attempting to be artsy, amirite?

"Look at how artsy I am! I took a picture of a tree at a fancy angle in greyscale! Look at this! I took a picture of me, looking depressed, facing off into the distance in negative with blurred edges! I'm a photographer!"

Lol exactly. I hate that. Like "I'm gonna take a picture of myself looking out the window and edit the shit out of it on picnik and put a dramatic quote on it!"

And I better tag about 600 people in it, and make my caption "[name] loves you!"

And they put on tons of make up too. They do it so everyone else goes on and tells them that they're pretty. Best way to deal with it? Do an anti-photo shoot. My best friend and I did one. I put on 4 skirts, blue lipstick, and crazy sunglasses, and she put on every hair thing she owns, plaid shorts, and her sister fake Uggs. We looked ridiculous :)

Ahg, this just annoys me to no end. No, not the girls. People who complain about them. Pertaining to this on facebook, just remove them from your newsfeed.

Making fun of =/= complaining.

In a way, yes. And it's not like you weren't stupid as a teenager.

The OP's icon fits pretty well, in an ironic way, to the post.

I don't care if they've posted an album with "photography" and they're asking for advice on how to get better. But, it's when THEY think they're awesome and are expecting tons of positive feedback, that's when it annoys me.

What if I cover myself in fake blood/dead make up and then go lay in the snow, now that is some shit. If I take artistic photos of myself they are usually pretty crazy, rather than just the odd angle+photoshop. I have a friend who actually is a model btw and her style is biomechanic/cyber/goth etc. etc. She is currently working on getting a spread in gothic beauty magazine, so when she does photoshoots, she means business.

My friends went and bought ugly sweaters from DI and did a Vogue-ish photoshoot. It was actually pretty awesome.
