We are taking our engagement pictures this weekend! We are so excited. We have been preparing all week by figuring out what to wear, shopping, and making sure our outfits coordinate. (We are kind of silly, we know). I kind of forgot about making any props or signs. Now it's probably too late. I'm sure the pictures will be great because a) we really like our photographer, and b) my fiance is quite a hunk. :)
Our photographer shoots film, so he is able to capture emotion in a timeless way. One aspect that distinguishes his work is that he uses film. This enables him to capture an amazing color range and classic look in his photos, like you can see here: http://www.oncewed.com/54303/wedding-blog/real-weddings/the-bride-at-dawn/.
He was also just chosen by the Wedding Chicks as a hand-picked vendor, which you can see here: weddingchicks.com/hand-picked-vendors/bryce-covey-photography/.
He is super talented and we are so excited that we get the opportunity to be a part of his work. He also has communicated with us throughout my 1,000 questions I tend to ask, despite his busy schedule. I hope our pictures turn out to be as beautiful as those you can see by clicking on the links.

New Fresh Scent = Smells Like Bug Spray
As a very pale girl, I am a big fan of self tanner. Huge fan. Without this stuff, I would be pasty pale 24/7/365. One great self tanner that I have been using for years is this stuff:
This stuff works after one use (much more after two), doesn't streak, and doesn't rub off on my clothes. Because of this, I often put it on in the morning and wear it all day. It is awesome. Despite the fact that L'Oreal advertises its Sublime line as "sub-leam," which really bugs me, they may not be able to get the name right, but they got the product right. If you are into self tanner, or have never tried it, but need a little color, try it.
Despite all my raving, there is one small problem. They recently "improved" the product by adding a "New Fresh Scent" which they print on the bottle as if it is a benefit of the product. The problem is, this new fresh scent smells exactly like the bug spray I used as a kid. Pretty gross, I know, but it actually repelled bugs. As well as people. Just like always, I put it on this morning without thinking to smell this "new fresh scent" first. Now I get to smell like bug repellent all day.
To sum it up, if you buy this stuff, make sure you do not get the "fresh scent" one. At least it is clearly marked on the bottle so I can avoid this again. I may have to find a new self tanner.
