Need advice from Patken girls

So, at 3 today, FH and I are going over to Patken to get our Engagement pictures taken. Does anybody have any advice for me? What should I expect? Do you get to see pics right away? Also, we're going to use them for our STD, will we be able to chose the picture today (if we get to see them) to get the STDs started?

Thanks for the help!

The session goes really fast, it's only like 20 minutes long. You get to check out the pictures and pick the ones you want today. After that it takes about 2 weeks I think to get them back. I'm not sure how long the STD's take because we didn't use theirs, we ordered magnets.

its a pretty quick process. they take you in the studio and do a few poses with you. most of them are upper body shots.
they will upload the pics right there and let you look through them on a computer. i think you get one free which they print for you right there and they will prob make you choose your STD there as well

the shoot was about 20mins for us. he did a quick touch up for us while we were there but we werent happy with it. so he said give me a week and i'll do it better. man did they come out phat!!!!

we used them for std. we picked what style we wanted but had them tweek it and add our website to it. oh and they did a very large magnet std for us. we werent a fan of the small business card size.

engagement pics are HERE

std is HERE

for ours they posed us, took pics, we waited about 20 minutes and they showed us the pics and left us alone for a few minutes to look through them. then we got to pick our 8x8 and our STDs... we were told we could have a std with more than one pic when we booked.. but they didn't have any available that we liked, so they made us one.. so that took a little while. but FH picked them up the next day (or two).
