No More FOMO: For the Friend Who's Never in the Photo
Be honest… are you always the one taking the photo?
You line everyone up, make sure the lighting’s good, tell people to squeeze in, take 10
versions just to be safe… and then when you look back at the pics later, you realise
you’re in approximately none of them.
Rude.
We asked our Broadcast Channel:
“Have you ever missed out on being in a photo?”
And the most popular answer was basically:
Yep, I’m the photographer. “Sure, I’ll take it” is my line.
There’s nothing worse than having the best night, cutest dinner, funniest hang, most chaotic girls’ trip, and then realising every photo from it is of everyone else.
Like yes, thank you for the service… but also can we get one where I’m in it?
Because half the fun of photos is looking back and actually seeing yourself in the memory - not just remembering you must have been there because you took the pic.
Main character energy = being in the frame too
You shouldn’t have to choose between capturing the moment and actually being part of it. That’s why a self-timer is such a game changer. No begging a stranger. No awkward sprint back into place.
Honestly, some of the best pics are the ones that aren’t too perfect anyway. A little blurry, mid-laugh, someone half blinking… elite. That’s the real stuff.
Enter: the new instax mini 13™
The new instax mini 13™ has a self-timer feature, which means no more sacrificing
yourself for the group photo.
So whether it’s dinner with your friends, a birthday, beach day, road trip, sleepover, random Tuesday that turned into a core memory - everyone gets to be in the shot. As they should.
A few ways to actually use it
- Not in a boring instruction manual way - just genuinely:
- For group pics: set it up and get everyone in properly for once.
- For candid chaos: press it, then go back to whatever you were doing. Those
always end up the cutest. - For solo pics that don’t look like selfies: Instant upgrade.
- For the friend who is always behind the camera: free them.
The point?
If you helped make the memory, you deserve to be in it too. So this is your sign to stop
disappearing from your own camera roll.
No more FOMO. No more “wait, who took this?”
Just memories with everyone in them.
Including you. Shop the new instax mini 13™ now!
