Bad ass photographer positions

I'm definitely guilty of my share of bad poses, but not as bad as some of these.

The monorail on the side of the mountain wall is pretty hardcore though :eek:

Haha I've done a few of those!

I think we had something posted like this a few years back. And I vaugely remember the beyond photogs who were around at the time making a hilarious effort to create our own "terrible photography position" dictionary while we were out and about photographing. I know I have a few of me kicking around that you guys have took. I know I have a hilarious one of Trevor. Maybe I'll post them later for some laughs :)

Haha here are some of the ones I had on hand. Me, in the pouring rain on a cliffside in Scotland (terrible photo, but super awkward (and uncomfortable iirc) position)

Rolland (Dirty_SOHC) with our son while shooting a (friend's) wedding...we would never actually bring our son with us to shoot a client's wedding of course. This = epic fail lol, but the photo the bride's dad got was funny.

And Trevor (berserkercatsplat) during one of our many summer hiking photo trips. I can't even remember what he was shooting here.

I'm pretty sure I have a D'zNutz one around too, I just haven't been able to find it.

Haha I'm sure you've got a few of me somewhere! I'd have to dig around for ones of you guys. That pic of Rollie is pretty awesome :rofl:

Definitely should have taped a camera to your sons hand.

HAHA! Actually, this was the engagement shoot for the same friends. Lucas actually WAS trying to 'help' take Rolland's photos for most of this one.

Here's one D'zNutz one I found. Pretty sure it took him about 10 mins to get the cookie goo off his lens after this one...

Hahaha, I was wondering what "awkward pose" pic you had of me, I'd totally forgotten about that one. Man was that ever back in the day.

Try laying flat on your stomache in the middle of a highway, you'll get more than a few looks :)
