PDA

View Full Version : Self Portraits



Tubby & Peanut's Mom

Thanks to PT, I've realized that after 17 years, I have no pics of me with Tubby. I mean none, nada, zip! So the other day I tried - tried being the operative word here. I gave the camera to Terry and held Tubby. This is the result.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid73/p48eb092c4e1f6ab9dcd67e09fe7b6064/fb759205.jpg

It's certainly not the best of pics because it looks like I'm holding on to Tubby for dear life, strangling him almost, but I guess it'll have to do for starters.:rolleyes: Terry took about 3 or 4, and this is actually the best one, and has been touched up even. So I guess Tubby and I have got some photo sessions to attend in the future. Then once I'm done with Tubby, we'll have to see what we can do with Peanut. :) :)

So do any of you have portraits of you with your sweeties? Ok, so not just portraits, but pics of you and the kitties. I know it's hard because I'm always the one taking the pic, and the self-timer thingy isn't too conducive to cat portraits. ;) :D

I think it is a great picture!!!! :) I have none of me and my cats. And I don't think any would look that good, but I should have some!!! Maybe you will be my inspiration!!!

I don't really have many of me and Shiloh at all. And I have none with me and Skylar :eek: I'm scared of cameras!! :D

I will work on setting up the cam on a timer though so I can take one of me and the cats.... after I take a shower and wash my hair that is!

Awww c'mon Aly, it wouldn't be you if you didn't have puppy drool or spit up on you! ;) :D

And I know what you mean Logan. Someone posted a thread a while back that made me realize I have no pics of me and T & P and this is when I finally got around to doing something about it.....only took at least 6 months to a year if I remember right...:rolleyes: :D

That's a great picture of you and Tubby! :)

For our Christmas card last year, we took a picture with David, me, Noah, Noel and Basie...it was a huge ordeal! We had to bribe them with turkey and treats just to come to us so we could grab them for one of about thirty pictures.

Debbie, that's a great pic of both you and Tubby. :) I do have two professional pictures of me and both Storm and Pepper and one of me holding Storm. I also have some non-professional non-digital pics of me with Sunny, Storm, and Pepper. AmberLee took these when she came over for her first visit. :) I also prefer to be behind the camera taking pictures so that I'm not in them. :)

Here's a fairly old picture of me holding both Storm and Pepper. Storm was around 2 and Pepper was 1 at the time. Seconds after the picture was taken, Storm leapt from my arms. You can tell that neither one of them are very happy in this pic. :)

That's a wonderful picture Tracey! They both look bright eyed and bushy tailed, and it's cool that storm is standing. I never thought of having it professionally done....have to give that some thought....:)

Oh I love these pictures!! I think this is a great idea for a thread. I am going to be daring and post one of me with Andy here. I was trying to get him to pose for a picture a couple of months ago. With Andy you have a window of opportunity that lasts about one minute for a posed picture. This was taken right past that one minute deadline! LOL!

Here is a candid shot that my husband took of Trevor and me. It looks like I am wearing a furry orange hat! Hope your computers still work after you view this. :eek:

Debbie, you look gorgeous!!! - and Tubby so cute. :p We have been waiting for this picture for ages!! ;)

John and I have been trying to get a picture holding Fister, but not much luck yet, we have to be really quick! :D

Tracey! It's a great picture of you too, love your hair!! Storm and Pepper do look a bit incecure about the situation, but so very sweet. :)

Randi
08-21-2003, 06:38 AM
Pam, I only just saw your picture now, you look SO good!! I can see Andy is struggling to get away - just like Fister. LOL! :D
Wow! I love that second picture too with Trevor guarding you! :)

moosmom
08-21-2003, 06:54 AM
OMG!! What beautiful pictures of you two!! Well, I guess that means I'll have to have someone come in and take a picture of me and ONE of my cats. I had one taken of me and Moo last year for my 1st annual Christmas Card. I'd love to have one of me Fawnie. Lemme see what I can do!

Barbara
08-21-2003, 07:03 AM
Oh I love this thread. I hate if someone is taking pictures of me but when there is a kitty I always look much more relaxed -I have noticed that with all of you too.

A kitty in the picture makes us more beautiful:)

There is no way to take a picture in which I hold one of my boys. Filou Superwriggler always wriggles himself on my shoulder:)

Wonderful PICS everybody!!!!!!!
Great to associate a furkid with a face....fuzzy or otherwise....

Wow!!I didn't know Sweet Tubby was 17!!!he looks great!!!!

08-21-2003, 01:50 PM
Pam, I love the "Trevorhead" cap (you know, like the cheeseheads that Wisconsinites wear?) :D And the picture with Andy is about the same as me and Tubby. Just past that most opportune window. :rolleyes:

Barbara, I rememeber when you first posted that pic, and I love it! If I could get Tubby doing something like that with me, that would be great, but I'd be all bent over from the weight of him. ;) :rolleyes: :D

I'm glad I started a new project for everybody. Now I have to get a better one with Tubby, and Peanut should be no problem because she's not as feisty as Tubby and will sit better for me, but I think we all know how she hates cameras so we'll see what kind of look she has on her face. :D

And Delidog, Maggie is beautiful...but where are you? ;)

And Kirsten, your pics are so artistic! I love the first one with the different lighting and the last one is just a great pic! 'Course there's nothing wrong witht he second one either. :D

And Miss Meow! How great that you got all of them in the same pic! So they're not all paying attention, but who cares? :D

Oh my gosh I am loving these pictures and "meeting" everyone! Neko, the picture of Brian and Pumpkin is absolutely precious! The look on Pumpkin's face is not unlike how my boys look on catnip. I guess Pumpkin is just lovin' his daddy so much that the contentment is just oozing out of him. :) Great pictures everyone! More! More!

I love this thread !!!!! Great pics and I love seeing everyone with their favourite furkids.

Can you believe that after taking 300+ photos of Nakita, I only found one where I am in the pic??? Actually, I'm always behind the camera, so I guess it's not surprising! I'll have to get an updated pic of the two of us.

This pic was taken I think a month after she came home with us. She's 5 months old and tiny!!! :D

Tubby & Peanut's Mom
08-22-2003, 10:47 AM
Great pics everyone! And I've gotten some great ideas for future pics. It seems the ones that turn out best are the ones where the cat is doing something naturally, and we just happen to position ourselves in the pic. So I'll have to see if I can throw my face next to Tubby's someday when he's on the back of the chair (one of his favorite spots) and snap a pic. That way it won't look like I'm trying to strangle him. :rolleyes: :D

And Sara, I love the one of you with your "niece and nephew" kitties! Even though it didn't turn out as a great portrait, it's a great picture showing how much fun you have with the kitties. :D

And it seems everyone has the problem that I have - we are the ones taking the pics, so how can we be in them. Maybe we'll have to have a roaming PT meeting where we go to each other's houses to snap pics of each other with their kitties. :D

Thanks, Katie, for being brave enough to post one when you're "not at your best," although I think you look great! But I know this is keeping some people from posting...not to mention any names....ZIPPY! ;) :D

Come on everybody! We don't care about weight or hair being done. We know you're all beautiful people because of your love for animals, so don't be shy about outward appearances. I wish I had some where I wasn't at my best to share because that would mean I have more than just one picture with my baby.

I really think everyone's pictures are great!

Oh, just remembered another one of Tubby with me that I completely forgot about....have to go find it....
:D

Tubby & Peanut's Mom
08-22-2003, 05:20 PM

In my pic, I was renovating that day and just came out of the attic to play with Nakita! Plus I was hot and needed a break!Therefore, no contact lenses, no makeup, and my hair wasn't even done because I was doing manual labour!!

Come on people, we want to see the faces behind the furry attractions!

Now we are really going to have to try extra hard to get that family portrait!!

Thanks everyone for sharing.

Great pics everyone - it's so nice to eventually see the Meowmies faces, after getting to look at all the gorgeous kitties for so long!

I seem to have the same problem as many of you - always being BEHIND the camera, I could only find one pic of myself and Ally:

WOW :eek: I can't remember ever seeing so many loving faces all in one place at one time. Thank you to everyone who posted.

You'll need to take an IOU for my picture. I have a new one with the foster kittens that I am going to be scanning today. (remember, I use my dad's scanner, so I can't do it right now). I will post as soon as it is up.

I rarely get in the picture, and not because I don't want to, but because certain people ALWAYS take the shot when I am looking at my utter WORST!!! It takes Charlie so long to set up a picture that I end up talking or moving and then I have any number of completely ridiculous looks on my face. :rolleyes:

I did find one where it appeared I was throttling him... As best I recall, he was trying to join his sister in the next room under the bed.

I was nervous of showing it for fear I'd be drummed out of PT for fur-kid abuse. ;)

Ah, another illusion shattered! And here I was soooo impressed that you'd figured a marvelous way around the "bridesmaid hating her dress" issue. :p ;)

Although the darling Miss Edwina might have had a bit of a hissy fit having to drag a bouquet down the center aisle of a church, twice, mightn't she?

Thanks Barbara!! It took me forever to get that picture. Nakita didn't want to get her picture taken and she kept struggling to get away from me. Even in this pic, Nakita was almost out of the camera view!

I'm never going to try that again with such an active cat. I'm tired just thinking about doing that again!

3. It would have to be 2 pics because holding both Max and Specks would not work. They'd kill each other and have me for breakfast.

Sorry guys, but just think, if there is a Pet Talk Meeting up my way then you can see pics.

Or better still, I hear tell that I might have to travel to CA on business within the next 4 or 5 mths. Maybe another CA meeting?? Never can tell.

Excuses, excuses.....;) :D

pm your snail mail address. I have one of those disposable cameras that I got free, just laying around. I've been wondering what I'm going to do with it since it appears I've gone totally digital these days, so it's yours if you just pm me your address. That's how bad we need a Slick pic here on PT. ;) :D

Oh, and then we'll get some much needed update pics of Max and Specks too. And now don't give the excuse that you don't have a scanner because once you get the pics you can snail mail them to me and I'll scan them for you and send them back. There you go, how can you refuse that? ;) :D

3. It would have to be 2 pics because holding both Max and Specks would not work. They'd kill each other and have me for breakfast. I wasn't holding 14 cats so you do not have to hold 2

And since I'm feeling quite pressured into this task, I guess I'll just have to go through my pics at home and see what I have. Bear in mind that I'm always the one behind the camera and rarely let people take my pic so chances are slim. If I find one I'll let you know. Jen, I think I still have your address from the gift swap so I'll send it to you.

Yeah, this is one of those "Gotcha Pics". I just woke up and went into the kitchen to put the kettle on and Buddy wanted his usual morning greeting. Picked him up and got my morning kiss from him when my son said "Mom", I turned and CLICK. Notice Buds little tongue sticking out as he also got interrupted.:)

That is so true, Jen! The posed ones never seem to turn out the way you want, then you get a "gotcha" pic and it's just perfect! :D
