tips for e shoot!

since i am now a pro - esp. for Patken brides!

#1 after every pose- smooth out/fix your hair. My hair looks like a crazy person's in all of the later shots - its the first thing i noticed when i looked!!! so upset i didnt check!

#2 tell them what you dont like - we didnt do this. . . and i should have but i have to remember for the wedding. I hate my nose so i hate full profile shots. . . i should have mentioned that to her so i could have turned a little towards the camera for that pose. FH doesnt like the double chin effect he gets when looking down so he hates all the pics looking down at the ring.

#3 make sure your nails look nice - they are in lots of pics! i wish i had gotten mine shorter. but when i get tips i get them REALLY long so they seemed short to me until i saw the pics and i look porn star ish oh well

#4 if you get the giggles. . .ask to do the serious pics last - once i got into it i could have taken ANY pic lol but at first i just kept laughing - hence all the 'natural' pics. . . everyone seems to like them at least!

#5 DON'T fight the whole way there - lol i thought we were going to be late and then FH took a 'shortcut' so we thought we passed it. . . we got over it though after i got the giggles - thank goodness!

#6 Don't be nervous about your FH - my FH is the crankiest/ most anti-wedding person in the world and he had fun! if he liked it . . . Oscar the grouch himself would love it! lol

umm okay i think thats it!

lol thats what i was thinking too! bc i asked FH to check my hair and teeth btw poses. . . but to him, my hair looked good

if i had brought my cousin she would have whipped out the dryer sheet and gotten rid of the frizz! lol but i wouldnt have been as comfortable if someone was just watching!!

I use the dryer sheet too and when i tell others they look at me like I am crazy and don't know what I am talking about...My friends know bc they do it too but others are like What are you talking about

lol you just rub it over your hair after you straighten it or whenever you get the frizzies - works like a charm! i always have a sheet in my bag - plus it smells nice!

especially after all that static you build up drying it!
