    I didn't think I would post pics of myself on weddingbee, but I caved! What picture do you think I should use for our STD's? These pics are from our engagement session back in September. 

    Don't mind my dopey expession in the "straight faced" photos...you have no idea how hard it was for me to not crack a smile :) Let me know what you guys think! 

    P.S. Sorry if these pics are huge, this is my first time uploading

    P.P.S. Isn't my FI sooo handsome? hehehe

    Tough choice!  I eventually voted Photo #6 because I like the different angle, you can see both your faces, and you're both smiling like you are just so happy!  What a cute couple you two make.  =)

    This is hard...they're all so cute! #1, #2 and #6 are my favorites...but that's not really narrowed down, is it? lol .  I think 1 is my favorite for an STD but I definitely think you should use the others for something - they're too cute not to!

    Your eyes are striking!  I love the second one for that, but I think #1 is the best for Save the Dates :)

    Thank you so much for all the feedback! My initial thought was the first one with the railings, but my sister didn't think it was good for a STD. I'm excited that other people voted for it too!

    I am beaming right now, you guys just made my night with all the nice comments :)

    I really like #6 and #4 the best. I think #1 is a cute photo, but for a save the date you should have a photo with both of you looking at the camera or looking into each other's eyes. Just being able to have your guests have a better look of you.

    I think #2 is very cute but it's a photo that flatters you and doesn't do much for your fiance since he's slightly out of focused and his face is not looking at the camera. 

    I like the black and white style of photos in general, I think it just adds a little something extra.

    But overall, very lovely photos. Thanks for sharing.

    @meowmix318:

    I totally agree! I didn't like that his face is blurry in the 2nd one either. These are the only handful of our e-pics that are closer-ups without me making a weird face, lol.

    The photographer kept wanting us to have relaxed expressions without smiling, but that's just not me. I know for the wedding I want VERY few non-smiling pics! I'm a happy person and I wanna smile, darn it!

    I've never heard anyone compare him to Ryan Gosling! I can't wait to tell him - Ryan Gosling is a hottie so I'm sure he'll be flattered! ;)

    I can't decide! I like # 4, 5, and 6 because you are both looking at the camera in them.

    You look gorgeous on the 2nd one. I think you could do a lot creatively with th 5th one. But the 6th is my fav because you both have the most genuine smiles! Oh, and #1 is cute because it is kind of mysterious.

    I like the ones where the camara is looking down, but I'd be a little concerned about the cleavage.  Sorry I looked there! :O  Although you can't really see anything.

    I chose the first picture.  The bars make it seem like jail which might make some of the men smile.  ;)
