Feeling Beachy


Photos in the ocean always look so fun! Image by Apertura.

Our engagement shoot is occurring in Puerto Vallerta, Mexico, when we are on vacation next week. Such an opportunity is only occurring because my photographer is a friend and former college roommate.

That game plan:
The morning of the shoot we'll take the bus into town and shoot for a few hours. I hope to find an outdoor market and some fun alleyways to explore. I hate looking like a sweaty mess so we'll take a break in the middle of the day when it's all hot and rainy and gross. We'll resume shooting sometime after dinner and finish the evening all wet and sandy on the beach as the sun goes down.

Would you mind helping me choose which outfit would be best for our photo adventures? Vote yes on the outfits you think I should wear, no on the ones I should avoid. It would be best to vote yes for only two outfits, because voting yes for all of them doesn't really help me with my decision.


Outfit #1
The puffy sleeves might be a little trendy, but I love the bright color. But will my sweaty armpits just soak right through the material?


Outfit #2
This outfit isn't quite as bright and colorful, but it's sweet. The neckline makes me feel young and pretty.


Step #3
I'm still bolero hunting for this dress, but it's so beachy and bright. Who wouldn't want to splash around in the waves and frolic in the sand while wearing this?


Outfit #4
I'm not keeping the shoes. So try not to fall in love with them like I already have. This dres is all nautical and preppy, it even has little anchors on the buttons. I ordered cheapie $15 white flats from Target after I admitted to myself that the mustard colored flats just weren't working.

What would you recommend?

A Little Photo Greedy

My Texas engagement session just fell through. It means I don't get to see my sister and I don't get to have the pretty pictures she would have taken. I'm so bummed. I just wanted a few really sweet photos like this......

But then I remember that I will have images like this......


And I don't feel quite as sad anymore.
