I'll post teasers when I get them.

well I've now only got 6 and a half weeks until my shoot! going underwear/outfit/shoe/accessory shopping in 3 weekends time so will hopefully feel a bit more organised then!

I can't wait to get it done so I can come back and say (hopefully!!) how brilliant it was!!

Reading this thread really makes me wish my BD session was now and not July! Ok, well almost since I need to lose at least 13lbs before then!

I was wondering what on earth I need and what I am going to do/wear and this was really helpful (next I am on to the other thread for poses). I know I have a while but it might take me that long to figure it all out!

Thanks ladies!

Katie a veil is a excellent idea!!

I only have shoes, 2 paris of ruffle bum undies (one with garter), stockiings and pearls.

I think taking too much will complicate things, but it doesn't hurt to be prepared.

Oh and a bra with some bling in the front.

I am really nervous too but we will be in mexico so I hope i will be more relaxed!!

Amy is absolutley right about getting glammed up.I bought rediculously long eyelashes for my shoot. I would never wear them out but they are very sexy and perfect for a BD shoot.Got them at MAC

Alcohol is a must in my opinion! lol

Thanks so much ladies, this is so helpful.

I was really on the fence about this but I think I am going to do it now, forget about the budget

can anyone recommend anyone in the DC/baltimore/Northern virginia area? Things can get really expensive around here and I don't want to get ripped off.

Thanks

hey you, fancy seeing you here! lol

well you sound much more prepared than me - all I've got already is a white corset (to go with the bridal theme pics)...but omg I didn't even think about a garter!!!! see, this is why I did this thread!

I am also gutted I won't be able to drink too

I am having to drive to my photog and my 2 mates coming with me won't be driving (for various reasons) so I'll just have to act sloshed instead!! haha
