... can't blame others for wanting a photo too. We find that most of the things that we take pictures of don't have us in them. Perhaps we're hideously ugly and don't want to remind ourselves, but I think it's more to do with taking pictures of 'stuff' rather than 'us in front of stuff'. And one thing that really annoys us is a consequence of digital photography, when having stood in front of the object or view that we want to photograph and got another image of their gormless face ...
