Whenever my friends and I go out for a night of drinking, we always take photos throughout the night. Mostly, we forget about these photos for a few days after and then go through them and laugh at our hilariousness (actually our messiness). As a courtesy of our friendship, we usually delete unflattering photos or keep them to laugh at secretly together. There are reasons that photos should only be taken at the start of the night.
1. You’re Not That Drunk
Hopefully anyway. Even if you’re a little tipsy, you still manage to pull off a hot photo. Head tilt, hand on the hip with a nice smile. Classic dress up photo with friends. You can actually control what you’re doing.
2. Your Eyes Are Open
Yes, as the night gets underway and you throw back shots, it’s easy to get immersed in the music, in the flow, in your own awesomeness or in another person’s arms. At least in the photos taken at the start of the night, both your eyes are open and you don’t get to play the ‘which eye is looking where’ game.
3. You Aren’t Sweaty
Yes, girls sweat. We work up a sweat dancing or making our way through crowds of sweaty boys to get to the bar. At the start of the night, your hair is perfectly curled. At the end, there is photo proof that it was not. Shiny face, clumped forehead hair and sweat patches. Ew.
4. Your Make Up Stays On The Correct Part Of Your Face
Coinciding with the sweat factor is your makeup staying on the part of your face that you intended it to be. No, I do not have a moustache, my fake eyelash got bored on my eye and decided to have an adventure.
5. You’re Covered In The Right Places
Yes, we girls get rowdy with the titties. But boys, don’t pretend like you’re so innocent. I’ve seen a good sack shot here and there. Sometimes it’s not our fault that tops come down or skirts come up, but guys at least you’re wearing pants (hopefully).
6. Your Shoes Are On Your Feet
Nothing worse than having a no shoes cheer photo plastered all over your Facebook.
7. Your Clothing Is Spill Free
Yes. Most important.
8. No One Wants To Be On ‘Embarrassing Nightclub Photos’
Probably best for my dignity.
