Now that me and Nikki are planning for our wedding, a lot of things come up that we always knew were there or expected but we never though we'd do ourselves. Things like, Nikki meeting designers for wedding gowns, me having a suit made, etc. But the one thing I never thought of myself ever doing is having a pre-nup photoshoot.
I never got why people did prenups. Regardless, we did one! And I just felt so tired after the whole thing. Halfway through the day, Nikki looked to me and said, "I don't get why some people say this is tiring. I'm having a blast." To which, I simply said, "Nik, you're talking to some people." I was so tempted to just call it quits midway through but Nikki looked like she enjoyed the day so much, I decided to enjoy it myself.
Most prenups see the couple wearing formal wear to locations they wouldn't normally wear formal wear. That's something Nikki doesn't like and something I never got. She prefers the more organic prenup shoots that feature clothes the couple would normally wear to the place they have their shoot. So when we went trekking, we wore trekking clothes. When we spent the day at the farm, we wore clothes that reflected what would actually be worn on a trip to the farm.
The day was long but I think we got a lot of good pictures in. I haven't seen any yet so it's hard for me to say if they came out good but judging from our photographer and the work he's already done, I'm confident in the end product. But of everything that we got from the pre-nup shoot, the chance to work with our photographer before the day of the wedding was the biggest plus for me. He got to see how we are as a couple, the things we don't like and the things we like, the things that excite us and the things that bore us.
We, on the other hand, got to know our photographer more. We know the poses to avoid, the things he thinks make for good shots and the ones that he thinks look to weird. I can't wait to see the prenup shoot pictures. I think I'm due for a Facebook profile pic change and I'm honestly just waiting for that.
