We recently got our engagement photos back. There were TONS and we received all of the raw photos. If we want them photoshopped, he will do that too, but he wanted us to see all of them as is. I thoroughly researched my photographer, and I think his work is great, but I really, really dislike how I look in all of the photos. I feel like there were many shots that he could've told me to position my head a little different or could've taken from a better angle so I didn't appear to have a "double chin."
I don't know if I'm being too critical or if I should seriously consider going with another photographer who might focus more on the angles on my face. I feel like the focus was getting natural, candid shots, but this resulted in a lot of awkward faces in my opinion.
Of course my friends and family say they look beautiful, but I would love honest, unbiased opinions. I don't want to make a rash decision about my photographer when it's just my own personal insecurities, but if it is his work, then I want to change before the wedding.
Thanks ladies!

Re: Don't like Engagement Photos...am I being too critical? PICS
I have definitely seen way worse, these are not bad at all! I actively looked for a double chin in each one and only saw a trace of it in one picture so it's really not as bad as you think!
It's so funny that @mikenberger mentioned America's Next Top Model because I was going to say the same thing. I watched an episode years and years ago where Tyra said "stick your neck out like a swan- it feels stupid, but it looks beautiful". And I've always remembered that! So I had a friend do my photographs (professional) and I told her straight up on the wedding morning- this is my good side, get me from this side, and it's your responsibility as a friend to tell me when to stick my neck out and when to suck my stomach in.
She did that and I was ever so thankful!!! It actually hurt after an hour of pictures but it was worth it to me because my pics look great. She also had tips for me about holding the bouquet as low as I could by my hip (instead of with bent elbows) because it cuts you in half and instead you want to elongate the mid-section. I look back at friend's photos who are holding their bouquets up under their boobs and she was totally right- it cuts them in half and doesn't look flattering.
So just practice a little on your own with posing and these tips and keep them in mind on your wedding day and I think you'll be golden! Obviously you won't be sticking your neck out all night in the candids but for the portrait ones.
This has helped bring me back to reality a bit and stop obsessing, lol. They are just photos after all!
The one photo I love is where my fiance reached out to push my hair off my face and it made me feel sexy- best most natural one.
I felt like the photos had a great eye for backgrounds and such but wasn't looking at US sometimes. I will probably have to keep that in mindifferent for the wedding and pay more attention.
ETA: the photo I love is my profile pic. Also, I hated almost all of mine on first look, but I'd bet that some will start to grow on you. FWIW, I think you both look great!
