My Fiance and I had our engagement photo shoot today. I thought it went well. When I got home about an hour ago, the photographer posted two pictures on facebook from it as a teaser.
I look awfu, I hate them, I don’t know what to do!
My Fiance thinks I’m being overly critical, but I really don’t like them at all and I even de-taged myself in one.
Sorry, I just needed to vent.
I guess no sleep tonight as I dread all the time and money I wasted on potentially horrible photos.

What is it about the pictures that you don’t like? Is it something that the photographer could fix with editing? Teaser photos usually don’t have much editing done.

I am sorry what do you see wrong with them? They are really good. I think you are over reacting and overly critical on your pictures

I think they’re both super cute! I think you look gorgeous! I know we’re all a bit harsh on ourselves..and I’m sure I’ll be the same way since I won’t have the control to edit the shots myself (I usually fix myself up a bit before posting pics…).

I’m sorry you’re disappointed by your pictures. I like the ones you posted, and think you guys look great. But of course it is important that you like them, also. Maybe if you can figure out what specificially you dislike, you can talk to your photographer and see if you can fix thing, either with editing like MissAsB: mentioned, or by knowing which poses/angles you dislike for your wedding pictures. Hope you find some photos that you LOVE when you see all the shots from the shoot.

I hate myself in pictures no matter what anyone says. I think as someone that does not know you that you both look radiantly happy and your faces and emotions are the focus of the pictures.
Congratulations is what I think when I look at your pictures – what an adorable couple.
I hope that you can look beyond the critical because they are beautiful pictures of an amazing cute couple in love 🙂
By The Way ours were supposed to be last weekend and got rescheduled for this weekend and I am sure I will hate them LOL

I love your pictures! You look great, and more importantly, both of you look genuinely happy. I especially like the second one and, as an observer, think it totally captures your guys’ joy.
