Day 17

Day #17: A favorite photo of yourself & why


Whew, so today has officially marked the beginning of me packing up my apartment. Bleh. But since my packing in going towards a good cause [moving, getting married...] I suppose I will survive. Blogging tonight is my temporary oasis from working & packing, so brace yourself for a novel. Just kidding!

Actually, today's prompt caused me to happily scroll through lots and lots of pictures that I have. Thank goodness the challenge is to pick a favorite picture and not THE #1 favorite picture of yourself, I'm too indecisive for that!

The picture I chose is a favorite simply because to me it just has joy spilling out of the picture. I look at it and love that this quick snap of a camera lens captured one of my favorite things to do, smile & laugh, with Adam, my favorite person in the world. This picture reminds me how Adam has the ability to remind me to smile when I am upset, to diligently work to make me laugh if I am too stressed about something, and to laugh with me - although, let's be real, he also has no problem laughing at me. But I love him so much for all of that. Is it August 2nd yet?! :)

Can't wait for August 2, 2013!

There are countless wedding themed blogs, magazines, and books out there that have written posts, articles, and chapters on why couples should consider getting engagement photos taken. 

After getting ours taken in Old Town Chicago - on the last day of our undergrad college experience and just a month after getting engaged - I can condense the other blogs/magazines/books down to one piece of advice: Their worth is priceless!
 Getting the photos taken is such an awesome memory to have together, both the experience and the finished product afterwards!!

Once the slight stress of figuring out what to wear, where to have the photos taken, which photographer you are going to pick, what kind of photos are you looking for...etc, etc, etc...is all said and done - the best part is that its all part of the adventure and special time of being engaged and getting ready for happily ever after!
