I had a hard time yesterday because we got all of our proofs from our photographer. Overall, I really do love the pictures, but I was really upset after skimming all of them. The night of our wedding, I had this sinking feeling that there were a lot of pictures that I wanted that didn't happen. I tried to put it out of my head because there was nothing I could do about it now and the day was so fast I thought maybe I was mistaken.
Well I looked through the proofs and there were 10 pictures of me getting ready. Not all good. Then I realized that there were none of the traditional bridal poses. None of the pictures that all of you ladies have as your siggy with you holding your bouquet or standing in front of the window. Just a beautiful picture of the bride. I was/am heartbroken about it. I didn't realize that I was one of those women, but it was the only time in my life I think I'll ever feel that beautiful, like a princess and I have no full length picture of just me.
I went through them all in depth and I love all of the pictures of me and my husband, and that is the important thing because I'm not just going to put a picture of me only up on the wall or anything, but I am still sad. I guess I didn't realize that I had to tell my photographer that I wanted those pictures because I thought they always did them, especially after there were a lot in his portfolio. This is just a vent, since my BMs and husband don't really get why I am upset.
