I doubt they were taking revealing pictures of you on purpose. What are you trying 'to teach them' by purposely embarrass them? Put them in the same suffering situation your currently in? You shouldn't have worn the dress, or you should have at least been more conscious about your posture and pose. That or just not give a fuck, because there is nothing you can do about it.

I tend to agree...if an outfit may lead to revealing pics of you being taken, maybe it wasn't the best choice for the occasion. You can't expect to control what pics are taken of you or how they will be handled after the fact. If YOUR choice of clothing is embarassing YOU....guess who had 100% control of the situation from start to finish? You did. You knew it was a wedding, and you knew there would be many photos taken, both professionally and snapshots. Its unreasonable to expect others not to photoegraph you in such a setting, and anys "oopsie" pics could have been prevented by wearing something more modest. If you were accidently flashing people, maybe the dress wasn't exactly apporopriate. I guess I don't understand your logic here. You buy a low cut dress. You weear said dress to an event where there are going to be hundreds of pics taken, and you know this in advance. Now, you're embbarassed because pictures were taken of you in said dress, as you knew they would be. I guess my thinking is...if you didn't want pics to be taken of you weearing said dress, you shouldn't have worn it where you KNEW such a thing is not only likely, but completely unavoidable. No one is going to like every picture taken of them, but when your personal choice of what to wear is the reason why, you can't place the balme anywhere but where it should go...right back to you. You wore it knowing it was low cut and that poeple would likely take your photo, and now you are mad because they did?

a photo is just capturing the smallest instant in time. how you looked at one instant. how many seconds or instances passed during the time period you were there? im sure they didnt just happen to catch you during the one instant during the entire wedding where you might have looked more revealing than you planned. didnt you say yourself "Really, it looked fine" so then whats the problem? either it looked fine, or you were just telling yourself that perhaps to justify wearing a sexy dress
and seriously

"What's worse is that they often like to sneak up on people and take pictures without their knowledge that any are being taken.
Anyway, here's the problem: I'm wearing a semi-low-cut dress and my aunts are going around snapping pictures the whole time. And making this problem worse: the pictures they take are all posted online for everyone to see. I'm sure you all can imagine what disastrous results might ensue..."

what the hell!! of course theyre going to be taking pictures its a freaking wedding and maybe some people want to remember it and have pictures from it, stop being so selfish... is this about you? was it your wedding? everyone there saw everything that was in the pictures because THEY WERE THERE and they saw you... so you decide to wear a low cut dress and then say that its a "problem" that people are taking pictures, and whats WORSE is that they were even taking CANDID pictures OMG OH NOOOO theres no time to pose and make sure my boobs are tucked in!

"One of them is a picture of me sitting down with my sister, leaning over to say something to her. The picture, taken by someone standing up, is practically aimed right down my dress."

so do you expect that while youre sitting down that everyone else should also be sitting down or anyone standing should not look at you because there is more revealed than you want there to be? so you just got a view of what everyone else was seeing and how you appeared. the picture is, as you even said, of you and your sister... hmm why would someone want to take a picture of sisters talking to each other all nice and dressed up at a family wedding.... JESUS WHAT AN ASSHOLE man i cant believe someone would take a picture like that.

"I'm going to go around with the sole-intention of capturing embarassing, revealing, or otherwise unflattering pictures of my aunts"

how mean and vindictive and nasty and cruel and bitchy. your aunts went around with the "sole-intention" of capturing happiness of a family event and recording memories, not to fuck with you, again, time to get your head out of your ass, [Staff Note: And that crosses the line into trolling. Give your opinion without the rudeness, please] its not about you, im sure these people werent out to get you or maliciously trying to make you feel bad. yet, thats the first thing that you want to do to them, even if you wouldnt really do it. and secondly i have a feeling you didnt look bad in this picture youre just embarrassed that it got caught on camera and now you family can see it (even your grandparents! who in their aged years im sure have never ever seen a boobie or cleavage) whenever they want instead of only during that period of time where you were sitting leaning over in your low cut dress

so why are you embarrassed? its not like you were posing trying to be sexy and revealing, and im sure your family knows that, its a candid picture. if youre embarrassed by how you looked, learn your lesson and dont wear that dress again, or other clothing that might embarrass you. or if you do, safety pin that shit in place and take the necessary measures to ensure that your "classy dress" stays classy and doesnt turn slutty

I know they didn't do it on purpose.

And if you continued reading my original post, you'll see that I was just joking about taking revealing/unflattering pictures of my aunts. I don't see why people are flying off the handle about something I made a joking reference to which I then immediately assured everyone I would not do.

I leaned over for all of 10 seconds to say something quietly to my sister and a picture was snapped in that instant that just happened to be aimed right down the front of my dress. As iloveunot said, a picture captures an instant in time. It's not like I was going around the wedding flashing people left and right.

Common courtesy would've been to not include the picture regardless of whether it was depicting something that occurred for an instant or an hour because it was depicting something that was inappropriate given the amount of people the album was shared with. I am my aunts' 21-year-old niece and one of them just so happened to snap a picture of my boobs at my cousin's wedding. How hard would it have been for them to just exclude it from the online album as a courtesy to me?

My problem is not that pictures were taken, it's just that this picture was taken and displayed for all to see despite the fact that it very obviously reveals more than I would like. Plenty of other pictures of me were taken at the event and they are perfectly fine - they don't show too much. The dress itself did not show too much, either. It was the mere fact that I was sitting and leaning over toward my sister while this picture was taken by a person who was standing that allowed the camera to be aimed right down my dress.

I don't see how I'm being selfish. A candid picture was taken from an angle that allowed much too much to be seen. I thought it was way too revealing and that it would've been polite for whichever aunt that took it to have chosen not to include it in the online photo album that was sent to some 60+ people. But it was. Yet, I haven't said anything to my aunts about it. I did so because I did not want to create a big fuss about it. How is that selfish? All I did was recognize that a revealing and embarassing picture was taken of me and now all I'm doing is expressing that embarassment I am feeling.

Obviously I wouldn't expect that people would refrain from taking pictures of my sister and I. And neither would I expect that everyone would be sitting whenever we were. To suggest otherwise is just silly and if you'll read my original post, I never made any such suggestions.

I said I was not going to do it. Good God, I cannot believe how quickly people have flown off the handle over such a silly remark even though I made it clear I would never carry out such a vindictive plan.

And, I'm sorry, but telling me to take my head out of my ass is just completely inappropriate. How is that a worthwhile contribution to this thread? Even if you disagree with me, you don't have to be so damn hostile and mean.

She might've uploaded them en mass and not even seen it, blondie.

If you mention to her that there's a pic of your breasts on the site, say 'You know, it doesn't particularly bother me - but it might not be the most appropriate thing for the younger members of the family.' or something like that, perhaps she wouldn't think you were making a big deal of it?

iloveunot

youre right im an asshole and i was pretty hostile, im sorry

you did say you werent going to do it, and i also did say what i thought about what you said and said "yet, thats the first thing that you want to do to them, even if you wouldnt really do it." so youre ignoring the fact that i acknowledged that you said you wouldnt do it, i still think its mean anyways, and i wouldnt want a cousin or niece in my family that thinks things like that about me and says "Unfortunately, I'm not actually going to do that" and "That'll teach them" when theres nothing to even teach them. its all in your head.

i have big boobs, and i understand this stuff. you learn to deal with things like that happening, you get over it, you dont get upset when people look at whats there, its not like you can help those boobs being there. people looking at your boobs, wardrobe malfunctions, whatever, who cares. what you have to do is what you can do to make yourself feel comfortable (wearing things that cover you up if it bothers you that people look or making sure youre not gonna pop out if you decide to wear low cut stuff with the magic of pins). maybe you should take that picture as a lesson, if youre wearing something low cut, dont lean over in it then, or dont get pissed about it if people look. certain clothing calls for certain composure, for example you wouldnt sit spread eagle with a skirt on, you would cross your legs. so make sure youre clothing fits and is in place and secure and dont do things that would cause it to be too revealing (if it bothers you, which apparently it does) and if thats impossible and it bothers you that people can/have seen it then maybe its not/wasnt the outfit for you and you can learn in the future

I expected some sort of extremely lengthy retort to everyones posts. I'll just tell you now, so you know -- I didn't bother reading all of it.

Well, what do you want us to tell you blondie0420? That it's all cheeky and your relatives are being inconsiderate? You posted your story - we posted our opinions. Why not instead of complaining on an online marijuana forum you go and talk to them, because honestly, I don't think it's that big of a deal and nothing is being accomplished here to begin with.

Why not call your Aunts and offer to edit the next photo album prior to it hitting the presses. Won't help this time, but maybe next time?

There is a valid point to I Love U Not's posts, you are aware that they do this at every family function, so why not make sure you view yourself from all angles prior to leaving the house? That is why celebrities have stylists and publicists.
