Hi everyone,

It may seem easy but it actually isn´t.Just have a look at the way you should use the term "picture" properly.

1)Can I take a picture of you?(Posso tirar uma foto sua?)

2)Can you take a picture of me?(Você pode tirar uma foto minha?)

3)I don´t like to "have my picture taken".(Não gosto de tirar foto.)...que tirem de mim.

All the best!

Yes. People who are camera shy do not like to have their pictures taken.
Filming with video cameras creates films that the family can treasure as time goes by.

Or:

Can I take your picture?
Can you take my picture?

What about "Will you take a picture of me/us ?" ??? Isn't that correct?

Thank you in advance

Hi there!

"will you please take a picture of me/us? " sounds ok.

Take care,

Daniel

"Take a pic" é bem usado também. Obviamente, nesse caso pic como uma "abreviação" de picture.

Tiago,

You wrote: What about "Will you take a picture of me/us ?" ??? Isn't that correct?

this would be a good place to use the Modal Verb "would".

Would you take a picture of me?

Thank you in advance

When it is a request, you have to say "Would you take a picture of me", (not will you).

Also possible is "Could you take a picture of me."

Will you take a picture of me is asking if he is planning to take your picture. (Will he take it or not).

[Claudiney Gatti]

Can you take a picture of me? Is it correct too or I need say more polite?

[Selminha]

Se eu quiser uma foto com a pessoa..

é certo dizer..

Can I have a picture taken with you??? ( posso tirar uma foto com vc) outra pessoa tirando
or
Can I take a picture with you? ( posso tirar uma foto com você) eu mesma tirando

é certo isso?
