Engagement Photos-So nervous!

Hey all! My FH and I have our engagment photos next Saturday. We are doing our photos at Fenway Park!!! I did a private tour for him years ago for a birthday with a bunch of us so I called my contact there. We have one hour and get (pretty much) full range of the park. I have lost 17 pounds on my pre-wedding diet which is awesome but I was really hoping it would have been more by now!The dress I got fits, but I am so nervous I'm not going to look good!!!! I have never been in love with my lower half and I know these photos will be full body shots! I did schedule hair and make up done but not sure how I should do it. I got the attached dress and also doing a few photos in jeans and my Yankees jersey......we met in NY, one of our first dates was Yankees vs Red Sox in NY so it's only fitting I bust his chops a little in the photos with our rivalry.

Anyone have any hair/make up advice? Advice on how to calm down and just relax for the session? 8 days out and I'm already so anxious

Just want to let you know you are already way ahead of what I did for my engagement photos. I didn't get hair or make-up done professionally, nor did I know what I wanted to wear beforehand - I was scrambling the morning of. I think you're going to look fucking amazing! Remember to have fun with it - it's a good time if you let yourself relax. It never hurts to take a few deep breaths.

Hahahah, Thank you, SSJ! I'm hoping to just say "this will be fun! don't stress" once the day gets here. The one and only time FH and I have had "pro" pics taken was years ago. His step dad got his mom a photo session with the whole family at a Picture Place. All I can think of was how AWFUL they came out and to this day they're hanging in her living room!!!! I was super sick with bronchitis and a cold so i was puffy and gross. lol.

Haha as I was reading that I was thinking to myself YOU CAN'T WEAR A YANKEE JERSEY AT FENWAY! But that's an awesome idea and I hope you share your e-pics with us when they're done!!

I think you've planned everything so well and your photos will look great! My only advice is to not do your hair in the same style you think you'll do for your wedding. Because you can rock more than one style! And, at least me personally, I want my engagement photos to look different from my wedding photos, not like I just put on different outfits on the same day.

Go for a drink or some coffee before! We plan to do that with our photographer there too snapping candids if he sees fit and then we will go to the location for the more dramatic pictures!
Loosening up before will help I am hoping!
