I totally should have tried to get my hair and make-up done. And spray tanner. And not made weird poses.

I don't think they suck, but I agree they aren't your best photos ever. Are there more of them? Maybe she just didn't pick out good ones to post.

sarabear23 · April 2010

I dont think you look like shiit at all! And I really like your dress.

nda_roxybabe · April 2010

I think you look cute?

mwhitson14 · April 2010

Night, there are liek 300. But I should've smiled more. BLEH.

mwhitson14 · April 2010

I'm definitely not a fan, but it's just me, not her photography.

sapphirebaby926 · April 2010

Psssh whatever - you look great. I especially like the 4th one

Sunshine9463 · April 2010

I think you look beautiful. I only accessed the first few (sorry, my comp is thuper duper slow.)
I think ruminating on hair and makeup is a moot point because you look fabulous and natural; not something everyone can pull off. You're not smiling much in the pics I see, but I still think they're great!

mwhitson14 · April 2010

Well thanks

I'm overall really disappointed. But maybe the others will look better? I think I just tried to pull off a style I'm not really made for. Shoulda been my happy smiling self!

ggmae · April 2010

Aw Whit, I'm sorry you are disappointed with the pics. But there are 300 altogether, so I'm sure you will find some that you like!

On wedding day, my photogs were telling me to pose with attitude and to be sassy. I don't do sassy and I told them that, but they asked me to try anyway. I look so dumb in those photos. A model I am not. I look much better smiling!

mwhitson14 · April 2010

And sorry, this wasn't meant to fish for compliments. I was just disappointed.

JessAndTrav · April 2010

Whitty, are you still on?

mwhitson14 · April 2010

Yeah. I'm here.

JessAndTrav · April 2010

Do you have an email address that you can access at work? I want to send you something, dearie.

mwhitson14 · April 2010

Sure, megw12@yahoo.com

Sunshine9463 · April 2010

I'm sorry you're disappointed. I understand your thinking that that particular style is not yours...but, I really think they are great. Perhaps you are just not used to that style of photo of yourself, and that's the cause for worry?
I know I am not a reg to calm your fears, but I sincerely think you do look great.

JessAndTrav · April 2010

Sent.

I'm hoping it'll make your evening a little better.

mwhitson14 · April 2010

Thank you sunshine, I feel you're right. I had went through tons of inspiration pics before we began, so I do think it's just weird to see me like that, with no smile!

Lenore2010 · April 2010

Nice pics! Oh, and no one needs a spray tan in my opinion. Not a fan.

mwhitson14 · April 2010

Thanks jess

haven't received anything yet, but I'll keep an eye out.

Sunshine9463 · April 2010

Smile or no smile, they are fab, IMO.

I think it's expectations that are to blame. The pics might not necessarily be what you thought you'd get, but I guarantee if you stop looking for a couple days (hours?) and come back to them, you will love them.

Again, natural beauty is not something everyone gets to take advantage of; but you certainly do.

brookelynpaisley · April 2010

Aw, Whit, don't be disappointed. I think they look nice. But you're right - I think you'd be happy if you'd been bubbly. Every picture I've seen of you features a big smile. These are a different style, for sure. I hope there are others in the shoot you're happy with. But I do like the natural look.

Night_Sprite · April 2010

P.S. I wasn't trying to be a jerk. I wasn't necessarily happy with our engagement pictures. I really only like 1 a lot. There are others that are okay, but 1 I like a lot. I even found a flaw in that one. We always wish we could do things differently or better after the fact. If you want me look through the 300 pictures I am sure I will find several that are gorgeous. Just a thought.

thesuninherhead · April 2010

I second the above- no spray tan required!

I can only see a few pictures- I gather the rest aren't online?- but I think the first is lovely. I do get the impression that you're uncomfortable in some of the others, though, so I can understand why you'd feel that way- but I don't think it has anything to do with your makeup and/or lack of tan!

mwhitson14 · April 2010

No night, I totally agree! I suppose we're our own harshest critic. Sun, yeah, those are just a few teasers. I should be able to see the rest in a week or so.

scoetto · April 2010

You're smoking crack, Neckie. For real. There are only 5 shots on there! You can't judge yourself off 5 freaking shots! Out of 300! Lay off the crack pipe, lady. And don't judge until they all come out.

janedoe1113a · April 2010

Aww...I'm sure they'll be more out of the 300 that you like. I agree that you look really natural in them. I don't think they're necessarily bad, but I have definitely seen better pictures of you. Can't wait to see the rest of them though!

wcvsb3b5 · April 2010

Ooooo I like the fourth one!! I think these are nice and I'm sure there will be more that you really like!

Nebb · April 2010

If you dont like the poses or how you look its not really your fault - the photographer SHOULD have been guiding you through what to do, giving you atleast some brief instruction of where to stand, where to turn, etc. I think so atleast, if she hasnt done it before she might just not know that.

Yeah, this was a totally free session because she hasn't done many of these before. She's an amazing photographer, done hundreds of weddings, but is only just now branching out to TTD and boudoir. So she probably really didn't know what to do with me.

Well fuuck.
