I am always so envious of everyone who posts piccies of them riding their lovely ponios in PG - but how do you all manage to get people to take piccies of you? Do you bribe people? What methods do you use to bribe people?

I always think it is a shame that I don't have someone hanging around to take piccies of me when I eventually get one of my lot to go "just right"

Any hints and tips for bribing people to take photos gratefully received

Haa haa, be very wise as to which one you choose to trade photos for!
 
I always have my camera with me, and last night was a classic example of what always happens.

I took about 100 photos of my OH whilst he was schooling. I ask him to take some of me and I get about 10 really crappy ones of me!
 
My best friend LOVES taking pictures...so she takes them.

Or I make one of the girls that helps at the yard on Saturdays take them!!

Haha I'm always giving them enough photos/videos back, and I pay best friend back in lessons/help as she is a nervous rider!
 
I love taking pictures, in fact it should be made a yard rule to have camara strapped round your neck, you never know when your going to capture that £200 you've been framed moment!
 
How about taking video footage on your camera then replaying in slow motion to find the best still frames? Depends what software you have though, it doesn't work on recent editions of Media Player etc. I think this is the only method that seems feasible judging by both my Dad and my boyfriend's camera skills! I know its cheating!
 
Do you have instructor? Would they not take some photos for you if you said pretty please???
Either that or rope, Mum, OH, Sister, Gran whoever to take photos for you! Just tell them to take loads and pick out the best ones.

My Mum or Sister take mine, I always have loads of random ones when my Mum takes them though! Mainly of his bum, the floor, the jump without me going over it, that kind of thing.
