  • Engagement Photos!!!!

    Ok….I can barely contain myself as I write this.  My photographer is freaking AWESOME.  We took the pics on Monday afternoon, and he had them uploaded to pictage on Thursday night.  I chose several shots that I wanted to post, and he customized the toning and processed them today!  Isn’t he amazing??

    Most of the pics are in black and white, since those are the ones I will be using for the table cards.  But all of them can be turned into color. 

    Here is an idea of what my table cards would look like.  They will have a champagne backing, not orange, and the image will be a bit darker and clearer.  But you get the gist….

    The last picture – I forced him to do the peace sign.  I rock.  

    And yes, that is our dog.  He was so bratty that day!  I’m surprised we got just a few good pictures with him in it.  A tip for anyone thinking of having dogs in professional pictures:  make sure your dog is tired out before the pictures start.  He will be easier to handle and won’t get overexcited by the camera or the photographer.

    For anyone looking for a great photographer, who is actually very reasonably priced, here is the info. They also do video!
