BPics Help

So I ended up not loosing the weight I was hoping to. I'm stuck on ideas for outfits that hide the tummy I have.  I do have a decent sized chest so it is sometimes hard to find things that support the chest and hide the tummy. I also don't want to break the bank since I'm already dropping a decent amount of money just to have the pics done.

Any ideas?

I did a corset from Fredericks, (not much support, tbh, but it sucked me in) a button down shirt, FI's football jersey, and a short satin slip like thing. If anyone is self conscious, it's me, and I'm pretty pleased with how my pictures came out! Obviously, I pick out the parts that I'm not happy with, but FI literally went crazy when I showed him.

Lacey bra and button down shirt/tie?

Email the photographer you are using... she will make you feel more comfortable. I've seen girls of all sizes (  I have no idea what your size) look sexy, and photographers know how to photograph the most flattering shots. 

If you are insecure about your tummy, babydolls with see through sheer bodaces seem to look really nice.

Are three good options/examples. HTH after a few minutes, you will start to feel more comfortable and confidant.

Wear an..... APRON!  Since your H is a chef!  Just wear very little underneath it

MBR had a lot of success finding BPics stuff at Avenue.  I'd send her a FB message.

I like the button down shirt and a pretty bra.  Also a jersey (and that's it) for whatever his favorite sports team... always a good idea.

Drink - I like Hil's suggestion about the dress shirt and am thinking about doing this one myself. Also, I have always heard that these photogs (esp Sarah) are great at using angles & lighting to your advantage to highlight your pros and downplay your cons...

I think you just gotta trust her!! I also really like the stuff BP posted...

ETA: I ALSO really like the apron and jersey ideas as I am planning to do both of these...

I kind of love MH's idea.  You could definitely make that sexy.

Or, you could go with a corset... sexy, will hold you up, and won't show too much tummy..

Love the apron and corset idea - corsets that aren't true corsets but are inexpensive are at Charlotte Russe. Fredericks of Hollywood has really nice ones (even halter styled) but those are closer to $60 +

I wore a football jersey and thigh highs and those pictures turned out great.

I wore a phillies jersey.. hid areas... I wore babydolls too (Marshalls, TJ Maxx= cheap but cute ) and a corset from Hot Topic.... I dislike my stomach as its not as flat as I wish it was so it was PERFECT! The apron is adorable and will hide the areas

thanks! I don't know why I didn"t think of an apron. I was trying to do something food related too. 

I did email Sarah.

I like all the ideas.

Definitely do one with one of His shirts and his tie.....the photog can also photograph and crop so you get boobs and tie only and blur out any part you are self conscious of. But remember, he's your Man for a reason and LOVES EVERY PART OF YOU.

I have a white lace up corset that I never wore from Fredericks that you are welcome to use (they cost about $50 from Fredericks). It's supercute. you could wear white lacy thong or boyshorts with that it would hide any area you dont like but have your boobs pour out at the top

I also have an apron that says "Kiss the Chef" that you could borrow too...that would be really cute for a cutesy pic with heels and some cupcake/candy/lollipop props.

I did mine at xmas so i have a santa thing that opens in the front....but its obviously not xmas, lol. 

Jersey idea is great too if you guys are into sports...that could be cute with lacy boy shorts for some good booty pictures.

Also remember...RETOUCHING is AMAZING. Whoever your photographer is will make you look like a hot mama.
