Go for it, Brandy!!!!

BUT: Find another photog, this one's really not very good. DH owend a studio in the past and did quite a bit of this kind of work. He agrees, find someone else. This guy's work isn't bad, but it isn't fantastic, either.

For example, check out the photo gallery for Dita Von Teese (Marilyn Manson's soon-to-be ex) Dita Von Teese - Website Main Page WARNING there are a couple of topless or near topless shots there****

Those photos weren't all taken by the same photog, they were various folks, some of them were even taken by Marilyn Manson. And IMHO, they are all much better than this gentleman's work. Again, not that his stuff is bad at all, but I don't know if you'll be truly happy with the photos, especially if you do them now. I don't know if he'll be able to do you justice. The flip side of that is if they are going to be free or really cheap. Then I might say give it a try.

Brandy,

You look great now. Why not do it now and later ? That was my vote.

OMG... I love Dita Von Teese's site. I spend lots of time there. Help me find another one! lol...You and your man are now commissioned to help me find a good one here. His fee is $75, 2 hour session and photos are dirt cheap. But I do want someone good as well!

Hunny Bunny, for that price, GO FOR IT!!!! Do it now with him, and you will get some idea of what type of shots you like, what angles capture you best, etc. Then when you are at goal, spend a little more and have it done again.

Luv to you!

If it were me I think I would wait til I hit goal. What a huge motivator! I wouldnt want to look back at the pics and say well I wish I had waited 30 more lbs.

I wanna do pin up shots! I didn't know they had such a thing. I wanted to do.. beaudeau (boo-dwa)(spspspspsp????) photos one day, but this looks more fun.

This is kinda like boudior photos only in vintage attire basically. You have to find the right photographer,which has been tricky for me.

AND no one be jelous, you will all be ready to do it soon! :rolleyes:

Thanks for all the support though!

Hugs to all

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
