Final Thoughts
It is important to note that the goal is not to try and convince them to do something against their wish. They can decline your offer if they’ve got better things to do. If the person isn’t photogenic, he or she can say no to you because they don’t think they’d look good enough in the picture.
Also, timing is important. You may be asking for a picture when they are busy doing something they consider more important. Looking at these, there are several reasons why someone may decline your invitation for a picture. You must understand their sentiment and why they may not be willing to do so. Respect their decision and don’t come off as being pushy.
