#Selca with the kids
Monkey boy and Me
I’ve been toying with the camera my new HTC One mini since I received it two months back. R bought the phone from Taiwan when he was there on business trip as my existing HTC phone was dying out on me.
I love the fact that this one has two cameras- one in the front and one in the back so that I’m able to take Selca (Selfies) easily with the phone.
Doggie boy and me
It isn’t easy taking pictures with the kids using a self-camera as I’ve still to learn about which angle is more flattering for me and is able to capture both of us.
Tiger girl and me posing for the camera
It is easier to take photographs with Tiger girl as she will readily pose for the camera as compared to her brothers.

How far you put the camera from yourself also does affect how you look in the shot. The further the camera is placed the better you look.

My LG has this function but I can’t get the right angle with me looking at the camera. argh…… Will try again when I have the time.
You slimmed down a lot. Your face is getting sharper.

It’s fun to take photos with the kiddos, esp when they see their face on the cellphone screen.
An extended handheld selfie stick will make it easier for you though in the future. I saw my nephew use one before.

@Mitch,
thanks for the recommendation. Will look out for that extension the next time I go to a camera shop.

Models in the making!!! I like all of these Dominique – the very few attempts at ‘selfie’ I have done are with a standard camera which had a timer and I could arrange my pose. Not inclined to try it with the phone – double chins tend to quadruple due to short arms!! YAM xx

I’m a selca addict, haha! I’ve been taking selcas long before front cameras on handphones even existed.
Find your best angle in selcas. (Mine is to the left, lol) Practice makes perfect. 🙂

Cute shots! I take selfies all the time with my phone. Have a great day!

How fun! You look great. I think kids like that they can see their picture right away – unlike the old days with film cameras.

These are great photos. Sorry, I have no photo tips.

Is that the front camera? The photos are clear ha. There are available mono pads now but I don’t know if it’s compatible with all the phone with dual camera. Nice photos by the way.

i agree, phone with front camera is easy to use for selfies 🙂

I try to avoid being in photographs. Therefore selfies aren’t much of an issue for me. Great pictures of you and your family.
