Hi girls (and the guys lurking!) ;)

These are my newest pics. Thoughts? Ideas? Still practicing the make-up. I somehow don't think I have the base the correct colour for my skin tone yet. I was just watching TV by the way ... Or trying to! :D Not quite ready for my (new) public debut though.

And of course the snag in the stocking in this picture. Now that is sad! :(

These are great pics. Very nice outfit. My kind of colors. I just wish more girls on here would smile in their pictures. To me, we all look much prettier and sexy when we smile.

I took a few where I was smiling, but it came out kind of weird - almost scary! :eek: So, I submit for your viewing pleasure ...

:D I actually really like that picture. It's a very feminine pose and your body is smokin hot! I like your smile too. You have cute lips. You just have that deer in the headlights look in your eyes.

I know if you are anything like me, I only like maybe 1 out of every 15-20 portraits that I take of myself. You just have to take lots of them and find the ones you like best. It takes time but you'll learn what works best for you.

Very nice Vicky, I like your make-up, veerrrrry nice! I guess you can tell I like the unsmiling photos. To me they look model-like, still I like all your photos. Your eyes look nice with the make-up.

Love Amelie

I agree with Charlotte a smile does go a long way.I know I look better when I smile even if it is a simple innocent smile.Remember it uses more muscles to frown than it is to smile.lol :p

All the pictures look great, making me jealous again! The first two are my favorites though. You're so pretty though, it doesn't matter.

Charlotte,

I think my average is less than that. When I take pictures I a few of one pose. Then I take check them out on the computer and make adjustments. Most of the pics I have of myself I took on a timer so I also have to get myself in the frame. But I'd say I need about 50 before I'm really happy with a shot.

Babe,

Charlotte's right, you might be trying too hard. Just think of something funny when posing like when the photographer goofed around while posing for class pictures when you were a kid to get you to laugh. Also highlight your eyebrows with a dark brown or black brow liner and fill in your lips some more. For the lips, think "outside the lines". Actually shape your lips to a feminine form using a lip pencil then fill in the rest with lipstick. For some pretty good tips here's some links:

You certainly have no reason not to show yourself. You have what it takes!

Hi everyone,

Thank you for the compliments. And the suggestions! Julie, those sites are FANTASTIC. I am definitely going to try some of the suggestions SOON! Will let you know when I have tried and what the results are.

As for being a deer in the headlights ... Yup, that sounds about right! I loved the suggestion about the school photos. Oooh, how I would have loved to wear one of the girl's school uniforms ... :D They had such a nice summer uniform too. The boys' uniforms were SO boring. ;)

Now it is time to go get a few supplies :D

Love,
Vicky

VERY nice. Photography is like that. You may take 100 pix to get the one you want but at least with digital you no longer have to wait for them to be developed. :D

I decided to jump in and take some of the advice since the house is almost silent. Is this better? :D I have posted the rest on my website. I think they are a little large to add to this posting directly. But have a look and let me know what you think please :p

Thanks Jessica. I liked the glasses too. The (dis)advanteges of sitting in front of a computer all day (and most of the night!).

Love,

That last pic of you at the computer is definately a keeper. It's very natural looking which is good. At first glance, I thought it was a different much younger girl. As you know, I wear glasses too. I love the way girls look in them.

Those last two are perfect. You convinced me.

Reminds me of a girl in school that I knew. A stunning simularity..

The last one is incredible, the glasses really set it off. Love the hair too. :D

Charlotte, I am flattered! I have always envied women who can change their whole look. Think Madonna. I seldom recognise any of her photos ;). But I really like the classy look. Besides, the glasses help cover the practicing make-up :). And they aren't even fake, but optional ...

I just love my fishnets, Sara! Got them via a party store through mail order. They aren't as finicky as the usual stuff and ooh ... Sometimes they are just stunning to wear.

Tristen, thank you! They say everyone has a double somewhere on earth, maybe she was mine? :D

And Kristi, thank you too. I LOVE hair. That is definitely my favourite item in my wardrobe. I have a blond one too, but it somehow just doesn't work for me :(. But I have another auburn wig on order and it is real human hair too! Can't wait for it to arrive later this month. THEN the games can really begin.

I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone on the forum for the positive replies and suggestions. You are ALL AWESOME! I can't wait to get to my computer in the evening to see what news there is from around the world.

Love,

Vicky!

Love the pic at the computer. Looks like any other girl would at her PC. Maybe I'll look like you one day.

Vicki, you are so pretty - if I could look like you I would be one very happy girl. The last ones are nice but I love the first ones too! Also the other ones on your website.

What a lovey pink skirt. Pink and Black are my fav colours. Skirts with pleats are oh so cool!
