@ElleLaAmour most of my shots are paused screenshots of gameplay. I play half my game on pause taking screenshots - I have a huge external drive full of them. Sometimes I use poses and sometimes I edit my shots but more for storytelling than to post here ie. this particular thread. Some are photos my sims took.
This one I was thinking - that looks dangerous and then this happened. LOL - but he was perfectly safe as its Sims 4 where nothing bad ever happens (except in a copy of this save where this sim died in a fire).

Thank you. Ouch, that's gonna hurt! lol
Where do you share your stories? Is there a forum section for that?
Hi. I'm really enjoying the pics in this thread, but I'm not sure what kind of pics they are. I think most of them are in-game shots with a few posed pics now and then. Is that correct?
I take a lot of posed pictures, but I've never taken a live-action, in-game pic. I assume you just watch for something interesting and then pause your game to set up your shot?
I think I'll take a stab at this soon. There are some very interesting images in here. lol
Yes, I use the pause button to try to capture a moment. More often than not, lately, I manage to accidentally turn off the pause when I mean to hit the Tab button to remove the stuff on the screen from the UI. My Sim was doing something I'd never seen him do before, the paused picture captured it, but then I realized it was spoiled by the clutter on the screen. That's when I hit the wrong dang button. My bad. Oh, well, you win some you lose some.
@ElleLaAmour I don't think it matters, actually. I tend to crop some of mine. I don't use Pose, as it scares me. LOL I'm also afraid I would spend way too much time using it, than playing the game.
To answer your above question "Where do you share your stories, is there a forum for it?"
Yes. There are at least two threads on this forum to share stories. The first one being What Happened In Your Game Today? This one is mostly stories w or w/o pictures.
The second one is What Happened In Your Game Today, Non-Serial? thread. This is basically for a summarization of what happened, mostly without pictures.

I'll definitely check out those two threads today. You've been a big help, thanks!
@ElleLaAmour I just snap pictures that may be funny for that moment, or things I might use when I put my story together. Some I use, many I don't. Just have fun with it.
My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
If you're gonna go through a phase, fully embrace it.

I haven't tried the pose player or much in the way of other mods yet. They seem like a lot of work. Stuff I want to remember is always happening in my game so I do a lot of pausing and taking screenshots at fun moments. I use the tab view and sometimes take a long time getting the right angle, but only rarely do I try to purposely set my sims up in certain positions for a screenshot. That is harder than just taking pictures of gameplay for sure.
I don't use poses, so all of my pictures are taken while I'm playing. I just occasionally pause and take a picture when I remember.
I don't use poses, either. I did have a bit of fun setting up the 'studio' get up from the Machina? Pack, I think it was. Got a few interesting pictures from my wedding that didn't go quite as planned. But pictures are good. I pause the game and try to find a good angle to show what I'm taking a screenie of. Caught one of the Infant twins playing Peek-A-Boo for the first time.
My Sim went fishing on the Britechester campus, and the art club was meeting in the background. Apparently not all artists are created equal.

Most of the simmers posting in Creative Corner have long term ongoing stories with the occasional pic posted in the threads mentioned above.
I'll check that out right now. Thanks for the link!
