So I got my BD shoot pics yesterday...and I guess you get what you pay for! I did use the only person in my town who does them, but I was not impressed. Instead of feeling good about myself while looking at them, I was thinking "wow, I look that bad?!" The lighting ended up showing every imperfection on my face, even ones you don't usually see when looking at me. There were a few pics I liked, but not many. I can't decide what to say to him. Should I ask if he can retouch further??

I would definitely ask to fix it. They can do lots of things with Photoshop and he definitely can fix it!

Good Luck!

Dress fitting tonight!  never did lose those last 10 lbs, so fingers crossed......   otherwise, it will be a month of celery for me!

Have fun at your dress fitting! I am sure you will look gorgeous even with those 10 lbs.

 

Month of celery sounds torturous...

Jacki,

 

don't stress about the last 10 lbs....we still have a few weeks to go! As for me, my dress laces up the back!! I had my last fitting on saturday and will pick up my dress next week!

[Jacki7896]

Fitting went okay..... my tailor (who was highly recommended to me) was kind of a b*tch.  She did not make me feel that good about myself.  So I left the appointment determined to work out every single day.  Back fat and arm jiggle beware!

I have my last dress fitting in an hour! I can't wait. Also my seamstress is not very nice either, each time i was there she was not nice!

[MichCraw]

My seamstress just came back from a 3 week vacation and said she would start on it tomorrow... hmmm i'm leaving in 3 weeks I was kinda hoping it would be done already!

[Jacki7896]

Well I am glad my seamstress is not the only one who isn't the nicest to her customers.  Kat, I hope your last fitting goes well!  Michcraw, I went in for my FIRST fitting (yes, I procrasinated....), and I was told I would have my dress by Nov 30 at the latest, with 2 more fittings in there.  So hopefully your seamstress is  just as fast (but nicer!)

 

Also, I just need to vent for one moment ladies.  I get married on a Saturday.  We are coming back that Monday, and had planned to take our honeymoon elsewhere over the Christmas holiday.  So my boss asked me when I was back, and I was truthful and told him late Monday night.  He scheduled me on a huge work trip that Tuesday- Friday in Fargo, ND.  So I will go straight from Jamaica to Fargo, with an extra suitcase full of work stuff and suits.  I am so pissed.  If I spend my wedding day preparing for depositions while my hair is getting done, I am just going to come unglued.  ARGH!  Alright, done complaining.  Thank you for listening/reading to me vent.
