I disagree. Given that the definition of photogenic is more or less that someone appears attractive in photographs / video, I do not think you need to see them in person. If they are attractive in a photo, then they are photogenic. Maybe they are an absolutely hideous person in terms of personality and so they are not attractive overall, but they would still be photogenic. Physically, they are attractive. Now I don't have instagram and don't care to get it, so I haven't seen a pic of Biorin or the famous mustache, but I would agree that Instagram and others would only host the best pics available. |

Completely agree. It's like that Cragislist ad (most likely a fake) about a hot woman wondering why she can't get a good guy with decent income, etc. The (most likely fake) response from a man then calls her a depreciating asset whose looks will only fade.

Definition is "suitable for being photographed especially because of visual appeal" or "tending to look good in photographs" I did not see anything suggesting relativity |

You can have lovely features that do not look well in a photograph. I thought this was an interesting discussion. http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/...d.php?t=545431 |

If you are an "attractive subject for photography" or have "features that look well in a photograph", then does that not support my original point that you do not need to actually meet the person - it is judged on the photograph alone whether that individual is attractive in that photo (photogenic). Certainly I would agree that you can have lovely features that do not look good in a photograph - but as a result, because you do not look good in a photograph, you would be unphotogenic. I do not think it is a relative position - a person either is, or is not, attractive in photos and is therefore photogenic, or is not. It does not mean that the person is actually attractive in real life - even physically. Someone may photograph well and be attractive in the photo (photogenic), but when you meet him or her, you are surprised to find they are not attractive physically. This does not change the fact that they are photogenic. Now, for those three little words that if uttered from you, would make my day... "You are right" |

My argument is this: imagine you see a photo of someone, and find them quite attractive. However, you meet them, and find them to be absolutely breathtaking. While they looked good in the photo, it is incomparable to how they look in real life. I would say that this person is not photogenic. They may be so attractive that even a bad photo of them is appealing when compared to most, but the photograph is still unflattering compared to their true looks. That, to me, is what makes it relative. |

I'm the opposite. Once i send a pic i'll never meet someone in person. It won't get any better than that one mediocre picture.

But I don't think I'm going to get to hear those three little words from you, so I see the below picture remains accurate. |
