Tomorrow morning is my photoshoot. I don’t like having my photo taken. I have issues with the way that I look. I accepted to do this mainly to raise awareness for my autoimmune condition - but at the same time, sort of to “push” myself into just being brave and getting my photo taken and it will be beyond my control, I won’t be able to delete the photo the second I see it.

Anyway I am trying to figure out what to wear. A friend (who I think isn’t quite sure of what an actual photoshoot entails - not that I do, either, really) was telling me to bring as many outfits as I could fit into my car, fancy makeup, jewelry (she actually thought I should bring the Akoya pearls my parents gave me for my Confirmation), &cetera. I have decided that I’m going to wear jeans and a shirt. I have makeup (I actually went out and bought makeup yesterday) - foundation and eyeliner. I’ll be wearing my wedding ring… that’s it for jewelry.
Here’s hoping that I’ll manage to take a couple of pics that don’t break the camera lens.

I hate having my pic taken. I avoid it whenever possible but it’s good you are doing this for awareness… which is why I think you’re right to go simple - likely want a photo of someone who people can relate to.

Oh shut up - you are gorgeous. The shoot will be great. The results will be beautiful. Do we get to see?

(That said, I hate having my picture taken.)

clothing for photoshoots - solid colours. generally you’re better with tops that are all one colour, patterns end up looking too busy and distracting.

thus ends my wisedom…
