SO, Greg emailed me back, he was out of town for family reasons...I feel bad now....kinda selfish even. He did say I should have my book in the next couple of weeks. I am SUPER EXCITED! I can't wait to give it to Jeremy....he is going to LOVE it.

Have you tried emailing him? He seems to respond fast to emails. He did tell me that he was going to be out of town all last week and I think this week too. Did you take anyone to the photo session with you? I am still just a little nervous to be taking these pictures with a total stranger. Thanks for any advice you may have. Mesita WOHOOO! I am so glad you are getting your pictures done. I was going to have my friend go with me to the shoot, but he was unable to make it. I ended up going by myself and was totally nervous at first. Once you get to know Greg, you will be like..."oh, I have no clothes on!" He is very nice and very laid back. Another thing he likes is COLOR....bring lots of COLOR! I actually did two shoots and the second day I was sure to bring color with me. He likes the way they POP in the pictures. I think with you a teal or hot pink would look sexy. Just remember to be yourself and let loose at the same time. If you really need/want somebody to go with you, but can't find anybody...shoot me a PM and I will meet you wherever you'll be going. I don't mind at all!

Okay, so I am a little bummed. I haven't heard from my photographer in over a week. I had emailed him on the fifth about wanting to see more pictures, and he said he would look Monday and add some more. There were a lot that I would have loved to have seen, but haven't. I don't know what to do?!? I understand if he's busy, but blah. I want my pictures....I want my book.....anniversary was May 5th and no gift for Jeremy.

First off....I must say ErinB Kicks ASS! She was so awesome to send me some pages I needed from one of the books! Second....there is a new book coming out in August called Touch of Dead. Again Thanks Erin!

Okay...finished books 1-7 in a week and a half...WOW...bought book 8 today from Sam's for $4.44. If you wanna buy them I would go that route. I can't wait to start this book tonight. I don't know what I'm gonna do till the next one comes out. I really hope the series follows the books somewhat...Can't wait for season 2.

I don't think I will get any this time. Money is to tight right now. Thanks for putting this together for the other girls though. You're great!

Thank you everybody for all the kind comments. He has actually posted a few more up there. I was hoping for more, but what can I say....it was free....can't be to upset.

Quote: Originally Posted by ErinB LOL! That was too funny! I think there are 10 books...Let me google... Ok, so there are 9 books. The first 7 are in mass paperback, the 8th just came out in paperback, and the 9th book will be released next week. Do you have these books? I bought them from Ebay, brand new, and one of them has a printing defect. I sent an email to the seller about it and never recieved anything back. If you have them could you scan a few pages from the book and email them to me?

Okay, so about a month and a half ago, my left foot was killing me to the point I couldn't walk. I described my pain to my cousin, who is a chiropracter (sp?), and she said it sounded like a heel spur. So, I have tried the heel inserts for my shoes and none seem to help. I have VERY comfy Nike flip flops and it seems they are the only thing that helps my foot. As long as I wear them ALL the time, even when I get up in the middle of the night to go pee. It is rather irritating. I heard it can take years or surgery to heal these stupid things....well, I would like to walk barefoot down the isle. I don't want to be confined to my black Nike flip flops on my wedding day. So, I was wondering if any of you have had one of these that you can help guide me to something that actually works.

WOOOOHOOOOO! I will be prayin everything makes it there okay and in one piece. Congrats! Have a great time chica!

THERE'S 10 BOOKS!?! I just finished reading the first....7. I didn't know there was more...WTF. I bought the books cause I wanted to see how season two would turn out. I do agree, the books REALLY focus on Sookie. And WTF is up with Tara in the books? Married? Store owner? No drinking problems? So not the same character that is in the series! I can't wait till the new season starts. FI better get off his a$$ and get me some cable. I am not watching season two on my computer. Buffering......Buffering.....Buffering......pause. .....pause......Not Available!

I just wanted to post this for B2B or anybody wanting to do a BD shoot in the Atlanta area. I recently posted that I found a new photographer who was trying to start a portfolio (or whatever it's called) of BD pictures. He has shot some amazing pictures from different cities around the world and honestly there just isn't money in landscape pictures or pictures of Paris, KWIM? So, he decided he wanted to shoot BD pictures. His wife is very supportive and seems like a really nice woman, although I didn't have the pleasure of meeting her. He has a studio set up in his basement of his home, which he is currently in the process of getting a building strictly for his stuido. He has some crazy computer set up, looks very complicated to use. LOL. He was really nice and laid back. I never felt uncomfortable or felt like I was in danger, and if you read my 'FREE BD SHOOT' thread you know what I'm talking about. He is no longer offering the free shoots, but his prices seem very reasonable. I had the pleasure of doing two shoots, one at his studio, and one at the W Hotel. I did pay him $25 towards the cost of the room, which is all he said he wanted. Please keep in mind, this was a free shoot and that offer was only good for me. I am very happy with the 20+ pictures he has posted on his site for me to look at and choose from. There are a couple I think I look HUGE in, but guess what, I'm a big girl and I can't hide it all the time. One of my main reasons for doing this shoot, since my wedding is a year away, is because, no offense, I have seen way to many skinny people doing them. I wanted to help Big Beautiful Women see that they can be just as pretty in a BD picture. I hope they will see these and say, "hey, if she can do it, SO CAN I!" This was one of the most exciting things I have ever done and I would do it again in a heartbeat. As a matter of fact I think I will, closer to my wedding day. So, if you're in the Atlanta area and want an great photographer go to: Atlanta Boudior Photography - Skin Deep Images - Boudoir Photographer - Bridal Boudoir Photography and talk to Greg. If you'd like to see my pictures go to the site, click on proofs, then Atlanta, then Samie. It will ask for a password and it's samie. Original....Right?

AND you are really making me miss my nosering! so cute! I think that BIG girls can be beautiful too. Beauty comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors. That is something Greg, the photographer, says on his site. I felt very pretty and sexy and a little shy, but the more I took the easier it got. I just think you have to be in the right mindset and comfy with who you are and how you look. Okay, I'm not totally comfy with how I look....but I'm not grossed out....no wait....not so much anymore anyway. LOL. You know, your one year anniversary is paper....get him some naughty pics then. That way you have time to loose some weight if you want and if not, you have a year to get the balls to do it. LOL. I LOVE YOU GIRLS! Be sure to keep checking back to the site...He should post more up today.

I PMed you. I would like to get in on this, if the price is right. If not, I may be doing round 4 or 5....LOL

Quote: Originally Posted by ~Stephanie~ You look great! Like the one with the feather boa, very sexy! The tie and glasses were great props too! I think you really lucked out with the free photographer, he looks very talented! Your FI is going to love them! HaHa...that boa was in the bachlorette party section of Party City....bought it on a whim. The tie is FI favorite one and he LOVES me in my glasses.

MOD's can you Update the thread title please? So, I got the link to some of my pictures....it isn't all of them, more will be added tomorrow. Zenfolio | Skin Deep Images | Samie password: samie

So well I met up with him on Saturday for another shoot. It was a blast and very laid back. I can't wait to see my pictures. I will be sure to keep ya'll posted.

This is a great thread! I am 5'1 and around 235 pounds. In the process of loosing the weight for my wedding. I tend to find clothes at Old Navy, Kohl's, and Marshall's. I LOVE Old Navy though. I think 90% of my wardrobe came from there.

Does your FI do martial arts? If so you could wear his shirt and belt and panties. Like the previous post....an apron. I would get a pair of sexy black heels, a long strand of perals, boa, mens dress shirt and tie. I did my shoot Friday and Saturday, I took like 10 outfits, 2 pair of shoes (hot pink and black), a pink and black boa, motorcycle helmet and gloves, FI favorite tie, 3 bras (hot pink, black, and white), and my wedding jewelry. I will be posting pictures in the next few days. Keep an eye out for them.

So, this afternoon I told my FI that he better treat me like a Princess tonight.....well, Ironically....we went to Medieval Times and watched Knights joust and fight, eat with our fingers, and scream and cheer for the Red and Yellow Knight....which SUCKED, he lost everything he did....pretty much. Other then having a sucky Knight it was a awesome anniversary date. I had never ever been and I must say, totally worth the gajillion dollars it takes to go. I must recommend the Dragon Slayer drink if you ever have the chance to go watch the show there. Since we are all picture whores.....below are a few from tonight. ENJOY! Jeremy and I before the show: Our Serf, Andrew (He was AWESOME!) Our Sucky Knight: Our HUGE piece of chicken: Our Knight, LOOSING: AHHHHH...Some Knight was killed: Okay...that's all....I took like 100 pictures with my phone. But hope you enjoyed the ones I picked. GREAT ANNIVERSARY I MUST SAY!

Two hours and counting....I will offically be on my first date (alone) with FI in like a year and a half. I am excited. My make-up isn't lastning as long as I hoped....sitting in Atlanta 5 o'colck traffic at 3 isn't the best for make-up. And my shoot was at 11. so....maybe a little touch up. Talk to you girls in a few.

I just got home from my shoot....wowie. Can't wait to see them. I will post a few teasers as soon as I get them....he said probably Monday....so exciting.
