People Are Sharing ‘Pics I Took Of My Boyfriend Vs Pics He Took Of Me’ And They’re Hilarious

People joke all the time about women having Instagram husbands, but credit is rarely given to the girlfriends who take bomb pictures of their boyfriends. They're each other's biggest fans, so of course, they're going to want to capture every moment together.

But what about when the boyfriend takes terrible pictures and snaps that photo while his partner is mid-bite or just about to sneeze? These couples compared and contrasted their picture taking abilities, and we have some questions.

The Picture That Started It All

Alex posted this photo to her Twitter trying to make light of her situation. Little did she know that the thread was going to explode into a glorious collection of photos gone wrong.

Maybe her boyfriend was trying to take a picture of the waterfall and she just stepped right in front of the camera. No waterfall will eclipse her and her joy!

As far as candid conversation pictures go, they could be worse. It just looks like she's way more invested in the story she's telling than he was at listening to her tell it.

The pictures she took of him look like an indie musician's album cover. The pictures he took of her barely got her face in the frame! Oh well, at least there are the mountains.

It's All About Location

To be fair, a picture you take of someone at the beach is not going to be the same as the picture you take of someone while they're working, so don't even try to measure them against each other.

Why do boys insist on taking pictures of you while you're in the middle of eating? It's like they know no one looks cute while they're chowing down and BAM.

What? Did he take this mid sneeze? He did her dirty. At least her makeup looks great, so it isn't a total loss. Let's just focus on the positive things.

She takes a picture of him looking all cute and casual and he busts out a magnifying glass and takes a picture of her looking like a bug? That ain't right.

The photos she took of her man are nothing short of aesthetic. They've got a theme going, and with all the same filter, they tell a special story. His picture of her? It looks like a character from a Pixar film.

She's Shouldn't Look So Surprised

He's probably always been this bad at taking photos. Maybe she hoped it was just a phase and that he would learn to do better, but it just never happened for him.

The worst part about seeing pictures like this of yourself is knowing there are times in your life when this is what you look like. What are we expected to do with that information?

Taking a picture of your partner while they aren't paying attention has a lot of potential of being cool and nonchalant. Or it's just a picture of you passed out in a pile of laundry.

But she put in a real effort to catch a cool picture of him with the city in the background. He just pointed and captured without worrying about her feelings.

Eating with chopsticks is hard to do and look cute at the same time, so she was kind of set up for failure. He could have warned her first, though.

It Isn't Even In Focus!

Was he still slurping soup when he tried to take this picture of her? It's so blurry. Not even a cute Snapchat filter could save this one. It's a lost cause.

Did He Even Try?

What is she even doing? Working out? Why would that be the right time to try and take an Insta worthy candid shot? Just...do better next time boyfriend. She deserves it.

Know why he looks so sad? Because he knows he's going to be in big trouble for taking these pictures of her picking her teeth. She maybe should have done that in the bathroom, but still!

He Looks A Little Unsure

He's probably wondering what's going on with his girlfriend across the room. Is she ok? We may never know, but we do have photographic proof that her boyfriend should not be allowed near her with a camera.

These were even taken in the same restaurant, so tell me how did one turn out so well and the other a blurry mess? Lighting cannot be used as an excuse this time.

An Attempt Was Made

It looks like he took a picture of her the moment she was making the face at him that says, 'hurry up and take it already omg!' That's what you get for being impatient.
