Hey 06'ers. I ordered alot extra from my photographer and my super large portrait was a 20x20 but with this picture alot of the Villa Lombardi's scenery [which I love] got cut off so my photographer are re-doing it to a 20x24. Now as I'm looking trhough my proofs, this is STILL my favorite pick, and DH doesn't have a preference as to what I pick, so he says. I just don't want to get the portrait, have it framed and matted and everything only for DH to say he doesn't like it, and come up w/ reasons why, like ie.: you can't see much of his face. I've told him a dozen times this was the 1 I was ordering and he never said anything. Those who have viewed my LIW website, and see 1/2 of my proofs, do you, in ur opinion, since u don't see much of DH is a good choice? Or maybe I'm just getting aggrivated because I don't know how the new size is gunna come out. Its' been over 6 months since our wedding day and I just feel like I should havr my portrait by now. . . what do you think?

What-evah. Have you seen pics of my house? It is freakin' palatial.
This is the guest quarters.
Oh, by the way, thanks for having us last week. My DH told your butler to tell you that we really appreciated it. Ladies, in case you didn't know, my DH is the wedding wallpaper installer guy. He installed some wallpaper at superkat's guest house and then she was so nice, she invited us to stay for a few days.

Anytime You are always welcome in my humble abode. By the way, you forgot the gift we left you on the nightstand. i don't feel comfortable mailing a 10 carat necklace. Do you want to just pick it up next time you are here?

forget wallpaper......I'm having one of my wedding photos blown up to be put on a billboard on the LIE so those that couldn't make it to the wedding can see the picture as well.
Wow!! Are your parents paying for it? Do they care how much it costed?
My parents are paying for it because they want everyone to see what a gorgeous couple we were on our wedding day!!!
They say we're being selfish for keeping the pics to ourselves!!! We should share it with the whole community!!
You are SO lucky. My DH had to pay for everything. It is a good thing he is so rich. He is SO good to me, he is even going to upgrade my ring!!!
upgrade your ring, oh pishaw....mine is buying me a house!!!!
We already OWN a house. We did that YEARS ago. Puh-leaze.
Yeah but houses were CHEAPER years ago....and the cost of living is SOOO much cheaper in Dallas than it is on LI.
What-evah. Have you seen pics of my house? It is freakin' palatial.
This is the guest quarters.
Well, superkat - we all know what you had to do to afford THAT house....

Anyone else have any opinions? Also as an FYI - Patken, my photographer is my photojournalistic, so I don't have an insane amount of poses. More photojorunalistic ones, and those, and candids, you're never going to see alot of our faces. . . I just went thru my proofs again, and its still my fave pic but I dunno, I just don't want Dh to get annoyed when he sees it. God knows my mother in law loves to nitpick about little stuff like this.
We also had vinnie from Patken and had a lot on non-traditional pics...we used this one for our 11 X 11. I choose not to get the 20 X 20 so the 11 X 11 is our 'enlargement' I had reservations about the side of the face thing also, but I just loved this one of us sooo much more than the more traditional shots we have so I said the heck with it...do what you feel comfortable with...or maybe get two smaller 'enlargements' and get that one and then another one where you can see more of your faces ...just a thought.
WOW! That is a gorgeous pic! U can see ur Dh's head (face) more than my DH's right? I do LOVE these kind of poses. I just don't want DH to get upset after its framed and everything! I wanted to get a 20x20, actually I think its going to be a 20x24 but I originally got another 20x20 that I didn't like and I gave it back to them, and got 2- 11x14s instead [along with one 11x14 i already had] So i do have 3- 11x14's, amongst ALOT LOT LOT LOT of pix around the house. . . !
Well, superkat - we all know what you had to do to afford THAT house....
I admit it. I am a how.

Have you thought about a reversable picture frame? I saw these frames that were capable of holding a 30x30 picture. When you get bored with one picture, you turn it around and there is another picture on the other side.
You want to have as many pictures you can of your wedding day in your house! I mean, your wedding was the best wedding ever!!
yeah im sure Patken will just do that free of charge! THATS AN AWESOME IDEA THO!

I decided that a billboard is not big enough....
so I will have a picture of us in Times Square AND also put along the side of the Taj Mahal.

You can't use the Taj. It is MINE. I reserved it as part of my day after shoot contract.

why not just have a world tour? Wear your dress and tux every day, charge people to see you in auditoriums and stuff... why deprive anyone of your special day?

Re: ADVICE!!! Need help on enlargements....
I'm having my year and a half after shoot next week. After that I will decide where I want to put the photos. Do you think DH really has to come with me to the shoot?
