camera shy

 so...i'm a little camera shy. it doesn't make sense really, because i honestly love having my picture taken. as i've said before, i literally will do just about anything for a good photo op. but that's different. those are fun/cool/exciting pictures (at least i think they are), where as taking pictures of what i wear.... is just weird/awkward. i'm an awkward human. i don't know what do do with my face, my arms, my hands... i feel funny making austin take pictures of me, you'd think i'd be more natural having him do it, but i'm really not. it's all just weird. & i've always been this way. 

you know when you're in high school & you're girlfriends & you decide it would be fun to have a "photo shoot" so you get all dolled up & put on your cutest outfit, (or if you were me & my friends, you get a little dolled up & put on weird random clothes) & go out to take some pictures. it sounds like a so much fun & you're excited because you'll then have all these great new pictures. well, they never really worked out for me because it turns out i'm a terrible model. even back then i didn't know what to do with my face, hands, arms, body. sadly, it hasn't changed. 

but i'm not going to let it stop me from posting outfit pictures! i'm still determined to do this throughout the pregnancy, hopefully i'll get more comfortable & my pictures won't look so weird. but for now, these will just have to do!

&&& just because i mentioned awkward high school photo shoots.... here's a good one. 

i used to have a lot of pictures from this night, but sadly (it's actually for the best) they seem to have been deleted. dang.
