I love having my picture taken.

Maybe it's because I was a dancer from age 3 through high school
That's me standing on the far right, tap class, age 9 |
Age 9 again...MOH has more patience than I do in this picture // {photo by Potion Mom} |

Wait wait wait- engagement photos? But I haven't talked about booking a photographer yet!
...that's because we haven't booked a photographer yet. Still. Yikes. I'll get to that in a later post.
See, Mr. Potion has this wonderfully talented friend named Emile. He's one of those guys that's good at everything he tries- and incredibly humble, to boot. One of those things Emile is good at is photography! (See where I'm going with this?)
Since Mr. Potion moved up to Leesburg, he's wanted Emile to come visit and see the area. Almost immediately after we got engaged, Mr. Potion asked Emile if he'd like to spend MLK weekend with him and, if he wouldn't mind, take some pictures of us. We paid for his airfare (since flying from Louisiana to DC is not cheap), covered his meals all weekend, and showed him a good time at some museums and touristy things in DC, and in return, he took some beautiful pictures of us.
Want to see?
Our first set was taken on the swing set right outside of Mr. Potion's apartment.

Of course, staring at each other the whole time made it kind of difficult to not just do this:
and it also didn't necessarily prevent goofy faces
This is actually one of our favorite pictures from the weekend! |
We have a ton more photos from the e-shoot weekend...but you'll have to tune in next time to see them!
Do you like having your picture taken? Does your groom? How did you get over camera-jitters?
*I sure do like confessions, don't I? Guess it's 'cause I'm Catholic :D
