Photographer Exposes Instagram VS Reality Photos pt. 2

[@mik6090]

its not about roasting people its about showing young women that what we see everyday on instagram is not reality and it sets an unrealistic beauty image that could be detrimental to ones self esteem. and that everyone we see on our phone screens have the same imperfections as the rest of us.

[@simrankaurgill2305]

and men too

[@teresamckeown5594]

Exactly!! I am even talking about this to my seven year old granddaughter-I don’t want her to be confused about that!!

[@lucyn3771]

but campaign photos are made to be perfect, using off guard photos in unflattering angles and lighting then comparing it to perfect conditions and edited photos is not realistic either it is just a way to put people down masked as helping out for the greater good. for example, kylie jenner does not look like the picture in normal conditions or the picture on the left either, but the account is trying to pass it as though she looks like the picture on the left. if you have watched kuwtk you would know she looks good, and like a normal person who has some surgery, and there is nothing wrong with that at all.

But I get depressed when I see “real” pretty people who stand right in front of me, not when I see pretty people on the internet, because I just assume it’s just one of their best shots or just some filtered photos, so I don’t really get depressed by those pictures.

[@LaurenOliviArt]

I feel like once people start retouching they won’t be able to stop... because you have to maintain your new look!

[@jvan9581]

As a person who used to retouch their photos HEAVILY, I can agree. It was hard to get out of. I think it was more or so because of the changes my face were going through in puberty. Nowadays, I just edit the lighting because my place doesn't have the best lighting around :/

[@ariellastrawberry]

[@gnomeobluebury]

can we appreciate how nice jessica was this entire time

[@kurutaa]

I don't know. I personally think we should be harsher on people who slightly retouch their photos. It does perpetuate a sickning persuit of a perfect self image that does not exist. I'd even dare to say small retouches are worse than bigger ones. The girl on 9:58, for example, is naturally very pretty. And yet she still felt the need to retouch her features in order to look 'instagram perfect'. This is harmful on so many levels - specially to herself. We honestly need to start normalizing our "imperfections". People shouldn't have to feel the need to retouch their photos everytime, this is very tiring to the mind. I still can't get over that girl, she's gorgeous and yet she still felt like her nose should be thinner and her eyes brighter. That's actually sad. Society has always cared about looks but I think we're taking our narcisism too far.

In response to the second picture, angles matter sooooo much and can make a huge difference! I have a round face with very soft features, so a picture of me at the wrong angle can make me look like a featureless blob even if I think I look good in the mirror.

Same. I have round face and angle really did matter whenever I took pictures. I can look like a different person in some bad angles lol. And after all, of course selfies pictures are always looks better because you prepared for it and showing ur best angle. While tag/spontaneus/paparazzi pictures are taken when u are not aware amd prepared. Just logic.

[@AmaraARW]

The one thing I hate about some of these celebrity comparison photos is they'll go find a pic of someone who just came out of the gym after a workout, and then compare it to a photo shot in a studio with perfect lighting and makeup, as if those conditions wouldn't make anyone look much different. Of course people edit and manipulate photos, but it seems like people make these comparisons because they dislike the person more than anything else.

[@sofiarb29]

Totally!

[@aislingm8036]

right? like a lot of the differences in some of these seem to be about angle and lighting, and the unphotoshopped pictures aren’t even what the person looks like in real life because it just happens to be an unflattering snapshot

[@cryingOnions]

While you are probably correct to some degree, I do this sub as a critique to how people present themselves on Instagram. They seem to allow no imperfections but at same time try to make it look like this is the real life. This is a very toxic environment for impressable teens who will look at these heavily touched up pictures and think they are ugly bc they look in the mirror and look nothing like the people on instagram. Its especially pictures absolutely and 100% staged, like the one where people pose in their pyjamas, perfect hair, perfect skin, perfect make up and a description that reads "cozy days, just chilling today" or "just woke up".

[@vierkavojcikova]

@@cryingOnions I think, Nobody is interested to see anybody just getting out of bed grassy, sticky, sweaty, you name it. There is some estetics that is applied to make photos, videos.... On the other hand, as you said, some influencers writing they just get up from bed in full make, looking 100% great etc is obvious lie, you can see that in product photo, advertising. I hope we all know thats not true. Like nobody in reality wake ups like somebody in the movie. And who think or believe those influencers wake up like that... are fools. Stupid... Teenagers should already know what is movie, advertisement and that’s not reality. People wondering about those pictures and some others explaining it is photoshop seems to me like people actually believing what happened in Titanic movie and the behind the scenes effects explained.

[@JuliaenLasMontañas]

The the ones in this video we’re straight up photoshopped. And they should be called out.

[@ZZ-qy5mv]

Honestly, while a lot of photos are shopped, I can easily find two photos where I look like a different person. It kinda makes me sad sometimes... like why don't I look like my best photo all the time? My daughter can also look like two different babies depending on her expression. Un-retouched photos can "lie" too.

[@nox8312]

100%. I think a huge issue with this whole conversation is that people think that cameras and photos are representative of the truth, when they are definitely not. A painting can be more representative of the truth than a photo sometimes, there are so many factors involved.

[@badreddinekasmi8919]

@@nox8312 As a painter myself I can tell you nothing is representative of the truth. We're not static images. Nor are we dolls. If you struggle with your self image you should visit a therapist. No body looks their best, because to look like one's best we need very specific things to line up. Which just rarely happens in real life.

I really admire that you reminded everybody to not compare themselves to the unrealistic standard of edited photos WITHOUT degrading the people with the edited photos. 😁

[@Groedhaette]

The difference in face shape may also be caused by the focal length of the lens. Smart phone cameras have fairly wide lenses which makes the face appear slimmer and the eyes larger, especially when the picture is taken from a high angle. The paparazzi photos, in contrast, are surely done with a telephoto lens which may make the features appear broader.

[@Groedhaette]

@Honeybun La Sure, that may be the case as well - but the lens definately adds to the slimming/distortion of the facial features.

[@caramelvictim193]

[@Abbyj19]

Brilliant analysis from a naturally BEAUTIFUL woman. Thank you for these because they help today’s woman realize they are perfectly imperfect and absolutely fine and lovely as they are. I am so glad I grew up when I did. I always had and still do have so much confidence despite my humanity and flaws. As I appreciate aging as a gift! All people are beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@leizylromero]

All of the photos look animated 😮 like a hyper realistic drawing 😲

[@abbiej2791]

I’ve watched a few of your videos. I love how you stick to editing flaws as opposed to human flaws. Also...”those are the cleanest looking eyeballs I’ve ever seen “ 🤣🤣🤣✌🏻♥️

[@sabrinacamargo25]

I feel like editing to that point all the time is unethical..that's why I don't follow people that do that

Next time compare ghetty images with real posts by celebs, there perfect comparisons because it’s the same time, and image

I knew someone who was not famous in any way and she'd post Google search images when she'd go on vacation but if someone asked her about it, she'd pretend it was hers. It was bizarre.

I'm so grateful I grew up in an age where photoshop didn't exist. What you saw was what you got. Imagine meeting someone but they couldn't recognize you cause you look 100% different in your photoshop pics. No wonder kids now adays have severe anxiety meeting people. They know they look nothing like their pics on social media. Sad indeed.

[@camilla3492]

omg u should react to some of your old photography tip videos !! i’d love to see that 😁

[@FKuehl]

You could do a "guess if it was photoshopped" where your subscribers could send you pictures. Or the other way around. You show some of your pictures and let the subscribers guess. Love your videos 😊

Okay girl your makeup is on point 💗

[@yessiekawaii1290]

Idk who darcy is but I know she's the one who posted the edited one 🤣 & the guy at 7:48 looks so fake like a Ken doll or something , kinda scary

[@bemeeklezvelveeta6719]

@10:07 she literally looks like the same person, basically the photoshop is just like... Doing makeup on a computer. She's so pretty. I'm glad you aren't going at this with any kind of 'jealous' thing that these side by sides are usually taken for

Good to know overhead lighting doesnt flatter anyone cause when I catch my reflection under the overhead light I'm like 😬

[@mistym0rning]

For some reason I read the title of the video as, "Photographer EXCUSES Instagram vs. Reality photos" and I was like, wtf..... lol. I'm glad you're pointing out the reality to people. It's not about shaming anybody, but to make people (esp. young girls) aware that no one looks as good as on Instagram.

[@AmyTaylorMusic]

This was really eye-opening. Thank you for making this video! Also, what product did you use on your inner eye? Looks so good!

[@fluffyfurball7777]

We need more videos like this one. It's a great reality check ❤

[@natasyli]

I just needed to hear your voice & now my anxiety is soothed

[@baarrbarella]

You're so nice, always keeping it professional! I love your videos. I've learned A LOT! Thank you so much!!❤️❤️❤️

[@MizBoriMoon]

I remember being a teen how obsessed I was over magazines and comparing myself to how perfect models and celebrities skin looked on them when the whole time it was photoshopped/airbrushed. It’s ridiculous how retouching has gotten overrated.

[@visualbeauty3427]

Idk in 2000s, compare these days look very obviously.
