for the photoshoot

I'm not a size ten and for some reason the blue photo backdrop makes me look ugly and hugeeeeeeeeeee  ;) whereas the twilight background was quite flattering, I'll love SM for ever if they choose the latter  :P

I didn't used to mind the blue backdrop, but at ET my photos with the Twilight background were okay whereas the ones with the blue background made me look like a whale! OK... I know I'm not the slimmest person but the Twilight background does seem to be more flattering!

His eyes opened wide with surprise. "What?"
"Dazzling me," I admitted, trying to concentrate as I looked back at him.
"Oh." He frowned.
"It's not your fault," I sighed. "You can't help it."

I hate the blue backdrop. My bedroom is red white and black and the blue backdrop clashes hideously with all my other framed pictures.

I'm all for getting rid of the blue backdrop!!!!

I like the blue backdrop. I'm pale anyway, and with a white backdrop I look like a ghost that appeared to haunt the guest.

Does that make me Miss Impossible then?  ;)

In another thread ME said this:

It is just the group photo shoot that will be taking place on the evening of the prom at each of the London & Birmingham events due to the time constraints. However this group photo will be a Twilight Proms exclusive, there won't be another one like it, not to mention you will be all dressed up in your formal wear for the Prom!

So maybe they plan on doing something special instead of the blue background? At least that's how I read it...lol...maybe I'm just dreaming :lol:

Well, we're talking about the collective here, not just me.... People hate it because it's unflattering to their figure, I hate it because it's unflattering to my bedroom.



Either way, people hate it :lol:

You scared me for a minute there. I thought Newton was dragging your dead body off to bury it in the woods.
Edward Cullen, Twilight  

Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars—points of light and reason… And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.
Edward Cullen, New Moon

I agree with you, if you are bigger than a size 14 the blue backdrop is a little unflattering and it reminds me of the embarrasing school photos!!  :blush:

I also have the same effect with the Twilight backdrop! Even though I prefer the look of this backdrop, because I have ghostly skin and ginger hair I look really pale. Plus it doesn't help when I stand to someone like Alex with his russet skin!!! LOL

Is it possible to use a dark backdrop? Possibly with the orange new moon logo on or will that be a problem to photograph nicely?

Good grief!  You are not fat!

Well, not having even had a photo at anything like this before, have to say I love the idea of the ET Twilight background cos it really shows you were there, rather than the generic plain colour background

Like  press photos or something!  Fab!

Hahah. I'm just poking my nose in where it's not wanted to say I agree about blue backdrops - they are very much so unflattering, which is why I didnt get photoshoots with Christian and Justin at ET! I looked huge enough in the ones with Ash and Kellan! :WAVE: So yes for the sake of looking absolutely awesome, burn the blue background. :blush:

(I'm not even going to the Proms, I'm just helping you out here :P)
