Question: Did Angel or Dana give you some info leading up to your pics?? You know she has a new studio manager and I emailed her but I haven't gotten a response and I don't know if I should be freaking out or not...because right now we know it's going to be downtown Norman but not where we're meeting her or anything.

Um, kinda.  Dana told me what time and where in Paseo she would be.  But they never asked for payment.  Finally I emailed her because I had questions about ordering and told her I never paid it, she just told me to call Kimm and I could do it that way.  I'm a little bummed though, she never posted our preview on Facebook and I mentioned it to her multiple times. 
Now that you mention it, I contacted Kimm to set up my bridals and heard from her once then never got another response.  I know they've just moved studios and all, but still.  I'd email Angel, she's usually pretty quick with responses.  Or post on her FB wall.

Ha, yeah. I know time and area...and I did send payment when I booked it, but...I hope they're just super busy...and I'll try Angel. Thanks!

Welp...I guess I pissed Kimm off already. I emailed Angel and I guess she told Kimm that I was trying to contact her so Kimm called me...she was really not friendly. She basically tried to say that I made the email up. Then she didn't even have the answer to my question...sigh. I want Dana back.

Last update: Angel answered, of course, and now I can stop freaking out and maybe get a bit of beauty sleep before our pics...I'm gonna need it! Thanks so much for your insight...for now I'm really just going to blame it on the stress and such of them moving to the new studio and try to remain calm!

Sorry, I wasn't online all weekend!  So glad you finally got in touch with her.  I miss Dana too, but maybe the new gal is just trying to get used to everything.  I'm sure starting a job and then moving locations is not an easy task.  What day are your pics?

It's no problem! It was a lovely way for me to vent even if you didn't know I was doing it

The pics are tomorrow morning at 11. Now that Angel and I have spoken about them I'm just relieved and excited. My only remaining problem is finding a non-mineral foundation I don't hate and I'll probably head to Sephora later because I've pretty much exhausted the drugstore selection. Oh...and maybe a lip color...I used to wear pretty ones all the time, but lately I'm a chapstick girl and I'm probably going to want some lips in the pictures.

I really hope she's just trying to get adjusted...and I don't think I'm probably going to have to deal with her again since we've already booked the RD and the wedding. Unless I decide to do bridals...I love looking at other people's but I'm pretty sure I don't want an entire session devoted to me in a big white dress

How did the pics go??  I bet they are great, can't go wrong with that area and Angel!  I finally emailed Kimm today since she never replied back to me after 2 weeks.  Angel said for my bridals we could do evening since it will be so hot (August), and Kimm has now offered me a 2pm appt and a 9:30 am (after I said several times I need evening!)  So yeah, I miss Dana....  Hope your pics turn out great!

Oh man, I was worried this morning when I got up to get ready and it started hailing and POURING rain...the sun came out just in time for our appointment though! It was super humid of course, but at least it was pretty outside!

I am not one that likes having my picture taken and I actually had a lot of fun...I just really love Angel. She showed us a couple of them and they looked great, so I'm excited to see the rest. Plus she fixed my only huge headache with the wedding (start time vs outdoor photos) so I'm pretty relieved.

As far as Kimm...well...I'll giver her this, she DID call and let me know the location after Angel emailed me because she'd told me she would contact me. So maybe that's trying? I hope I don't have to try to schedule anything else...Dana was super helpful in getting this set up in the summer because of our school schedules. Idk why you'd suggest 9am when the word is evening! Hope that works out for you in the best possible way!
