Life With Frenchie

I found this while browsing around on The Knot, but it was too good to just put up on my wedding blog.

One of the things that I’ve learned about during the planning is that a lot of women have boudoir pictures done as surprise gifts for their fiances. I’ve seen some samples on photographer websites when trying to choose a photographer for our wedding, as well as women on The Knot who have shared their own. They have always been very tasteful and reveal just enough to keep the man in suspense…until now!

This is a real photographer and these are actual samples. Maybe these girls didn’t know any better, but this guy seriously ripped them off! But, as much as I feel sorry for the bad “deal” these women got, I can’t help but laughing to the point of crying when I look at these. Needless to say, this is not what I will be getting for EP!

I logged on today to post a blog about the aggravating drivers I encountered today and found out that I have been pegged as someone who Colleen thought should complete this Crazy 8’s meme:
