So I hate all my engagement photos...

Yeah... hate them. Can't really blame it on the photographer. FH looks pretty awesome in them. I've never been a photogenic person and this was a sad reality check. I have 4 months to learn how to take a photo Ffs ETA: Thank you everyone. Though I didn't post the ones that really made me cringe,...

I'm being overly critical. I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one that hated theirs at first and that they may grow on me. I never thought of it as an opportunity to discuss what I like and dislike with the photographer. And yes, same photographer for the wedding Smiley smile

    I agree with everyone, you look so good! I was waiting to see some entertaining bad photos! Did not get that at all.

    If you are still concerned, think about what specifically you don't like about them and share with your photographer. They will probably be able to give you good advice for your wedding day.

    But seriously, you look awesome. And there is always cropping, making black and white, etc, etc, etc.

    We are our own worst critics! I think they came out wonderfully!

    I actually hated our pics so much that I almost cried when I saw them. Lol! I had to set them aside for a while and then come back to them after my mom, brother and FH reassured me they were great. I still don't love all of them, but I have a handful I really love and will cherish. It's just that we tend to zoom in right away on the things we feel self-conscious about.

    Yours look awesome!!! Seriously stop over thinking it! I'm scared to take them, but it's the opposite for us. FH, bless his sweet little heart, has been known to not be good at taking photos. He's so darn cute, but so bad at pictures. He gets nervous/self conscious (for some reason) and tends to make the strangest faces and stand in the most awkward ways in front of the camera. I really do love it when he takes photos because I think he's adorable, but I know he will hate every single one of them because he's too critical of himself and it makes me sad. I hope our photographer can work his magic and get some he actually likes
